ESXMIM/ESXMIM-F2 Local Management Guide Page 7-3
7.1.2 Runtime Download
If you select Runtime download, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Reboot After Download field.
2. Use the SPACE bar or BACKSPACE to select one of the following:
• YES, if you want the ESXMIM to reboot and use the new
firmware image immediately.
• NO, if you want the ESXMIM to continue using the existing
firmware image without interrupting network operation. The
ESXMIM stores the new firmware image in FLASH memory.
When you reset the ESXMIM, it boots from FLASH memory
using the new image.
7.2 SELECTING A FLASH DOWNLOAD SERVER
Directly below the Download Method and Reboot After Download/
Commit to Flash toggle fields are the Download Server and Download
File display and input fields. The Download Server input field contains
the IP address of the server that the ESXMIM will request a firmware
image from. By default, the Download Server field will display the last
IP address used for a firmware download. If the same server is to be used
to perform the current download, no changes need to be made to the
Download Server input field.
The Download File input field contains the file name of the firmware
image to be downloaded and the access path used to locate it on the
server. By default, the Download File input field will display the last
firmware image filename and path used to perform a download to this
ESXMIM. If there have been no changes to the server or the file name and
path, these defaults can be used without changes being required.
