FlashingSLOF.pdf contains instruction for installing SLOF to JS20/JS21 machines.
|
||
|
We use SLOF for running virtual guests only so we do not need this file.

- Detailed information about how to use SLOF on JS20 and JS21 can be found in
|
||
|
- the document FlashingSLOF.pdf
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- The JS20 and JS21 blades both have 2 "flashsides". They have a 8MB flash part
|
||
|
- which is divided into a 4MB "temporary" side and a 4MB "permanent" side.
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- The temporary side is the flashside used for the normal operation and the
|
||
|
- permanent side is used as a backup if the temporary should ever fail.
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- Therefore it is important that the permanent flash side is not changed so
|
||
|
- that if ever required the original firmware can be restored.
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- SLOF usually warns or in most cases does not easily allow to overwrite the
|
||
|
- permanent side.

-REMOVING SLOF FROM JS20/JS21
|
||
|
-===============================================================================
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- If you want to boot the original firmware again, you need to boot the blade
|
||
|
- from the management module. If auto-boot is enabled you have to press "s"
|
||
|
- to reach the firmware prompt.
|
||
|
- On the SLOF command line, type:
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- 0 > other-firmware
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- and it should get you back to running the original firmware. To permanently
|
||
|
- get it back, after booting Linux from there, type
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- $ update_flash -r
|
||
|
- $ halt
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- You will boot on the PERM side. To boot from the TEMP side again, you need to
|
||
|
- restart the Blade System MGMT Processor.
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- Following steps are needed on
|
||
|
- Management Module -> Blade Tasks -> Power/Restart
|
||
|
-
|
||
|
- Power Off Blade
|

|
- Restart Blade System Mgmt Processor
