Chapter 11 Updating Library and Tape Drive Firmware
Upgrading Tape Drive Firmware
Dell PowerVault ML6000 User’s Guide 204
You cannot upgrade tape drive firmware with an image file from the
operator panel. The path to the appropriate screen is as follows:
From the Web client, select Tools > Drive Operations.
Creating a FUP Tape 11
A FUP tape is a tape cartridge that is used to transfer upgraded tape drive
firmware code to the library. When you create a FUP tape, you save a
copy of a tape drive firmware version already in use in your library. The
drive code image is copied onto the FUP tape, which you can then use to
upgrade the drive firmware on all of the specified drives within the
library. Drive code versions are independent of the library versions.
The entire process of creating a FUP tape can be performed using the
operator panel. If you choose to create the tape using the Web client, be
aware that part of the process must be performed on the operator panel
and that you will need access to the physical library.
Details on creating FUP tapes include:
FUP tapes are created using a blank, or scratch, tape.
FUP tapes can be reused.
Each tape drive interface type requires a unique firmware image.
FUP tapes must contain the appropriate SCSI, FC, or SAS firmware
image for the corresponding SCSI, FC, or SAS drive type.
You cannot use an LTO-1 tape in LTO-3 tape drives, or LTO-1 or
LTO-2 tapes in LTO-4 tape drives, or LTO-1, LTO-2, or LTO-3 tapes
in LTO-5 tape drives, to create FUP tapes.
You can select only empty tape drives to perform this operation. If
the tape drive you want to use contains a tape cartridge, you will
need to unload it first.
The tape drive and associated partition are automatically taken
offline during the operation and brought back online when the
operation completes. You will be asked to confirm that you want to
take the tape drive and partition offline.
Note: If the operation does not complete successfully, the
partition remains offline until you turn it back online
manually or restart the library (see Taking a Partition
Online or Offline on page 78).
