Configuration 13

2.

Open the

/etc/xinetd.d/tftp

file and modify the parameter

server_args

to include

-T

15000000

. For example,

server_args = -c -s /tftpboot -T 15000000

.

3.

If a firewall is enabled, disable it or modify the settings to allow the firewall to connect to the TFTP
port. To change the firewall settings, navigate to Applications>System Settings>Security Level, and
enter

69:udp

in the parameter of the other port.

To update the firmware, log in to LO100 as the administrator through the CLP interface, and issue the

load

command to upload and install the firmware from the map1/firmware directory.

1.

Start a CLP session. To access CLP:

a.

Navigate to Start>All Programs>Accessories>Command Prompt.

b.

At the command prompt, enter

telnet <IP address>

.

2.

At the CLP prompt, enter

cd map1/firmware

.

3.

At the CLP prompt, enter

load -source <URI> -oemhpfiletype csr

where:

o

<URI> is the

//<tftp server IP>/<filename>

to be downloaded.

o

<tftp server IP> is the URL or IP address of the TFTP server containing the firmware.

o

<filename> is the file name of the image file (LdrImage.bin in this example).

For example, enter

load -source //10.141.38.157/LdrImage.bin - oemhpfiletype

csr

.

The TFTP application might report an error in the early part of the firmware upload process, during
the firmware image validation process. An error does not necessarily indicate failure of the firmware

upload and does not prevent successful firmware uploads. A successful firmware upload typically
takes several minutes. After the firmware upgrade process is complete, verify that the new version of

the firmware is active.
If the firmware upgrade process fails after sufficient time (at least 5 minutes), reboot the server, and
verify that the previous version of the firmware is still active. Always reboot the server before retrying

the firmware upgrade process.
After installing the firmware, the IP address of the server might reset to the default value. You must
locally reset the IP address to the desired address.

NOTE:

After using the

load

command LO100 will reset ending your CLP interface session.

You must reconnect to the CLP interface.

NOTE:

When you use the CLP

load

command with TFTPD32, HP recommends using a 30-

second timeout and 6 retries.

Flashing previous firmware versions on an HP ProLiant ML110
G5 Server

When an HP Lights-Out 100c Remote Management Card is installed in an HP ProLiant ML110 G5 Server,
you can flash the LO100 to an earlier version. In the map1 directory, enter the CLP command

oemhp i

20 20 c0 18 00 04 04 e0

. This command reactivates the previous version.
