Restoring Server Redundancy

If you have a redundant Server pair, you will need to restore redundancy
between the two Servers to complete the upgrade procedure. Complete the
steps to restore redundancy in Chapter 6, ProcessLogix Server Upgrade
Procedures
.

Upgrading Hardware Component Firmware

1. Refer to 1784-PCIC Driver Installation on page 7-1 and 1784-PCIC

Firmware Installation on page 7-3 to upgrade the 1784-PCIC to the
supported driver and firmware revisions.

2. Refer to Loading 1757-PLX52, TC-MUX021, or 1757-FIM Boot and

Personality Images on page 7-9 to upgrade the 1757-PLX52 boot and
personality images to the current release level.

3. After upgrading the 1757-PLX52, refer to Upgrading Hardware

Component Firmware on page 7-4 to check if other hardware
components require upgrades.

IMPORTANT

Stop! It is mandatory that you check the firmware revision
levels for ALL ProcessLogix hardware components after a
ProcessLogix software installation and/or a component
addition or replacement.

Do not proceed until you have upgraded the firmware.
Then go to the next section, Backing Up a ProcessLogix
Server Hard Drive to Tape.

ATTENTION

!

If you also upgraded from a non-redundant 1757-PLX52
to a redundant 1757-PLX52, you must delete the existing
CPM and its associated CEE from the Project tab,
reconfigure a new 1757-PLX52 and its associated CEE,
and reassign the components before you download the
CPM to the Controller.
