Patch Installation Instructions:
-------------------------------- 
 This patch includes a firmware uploading utility (6120.sh) that 
 simplifies transferring the contents of this patch to a StorEdge
 6120 system.   This script is intended for use on Solaris host 
 systems only.  To manually install the contents of this patch
 see the pertinent section below.
 
 *** Warning *** Warning *** Warning *** Warning *** Warning ***
 BEFORE attempting to load firmware on a StorEdge 6120 system, be sure to
 stop all IO activity from all attached host systems.  This procedure
 requires a 6120 system reboot so all necessary host preparations
 needed to sustain this procedure should be made before starting.
 It is recommended all 6120 volumes be unmounted on Solaris before 
 proceeding with this patch installation.
 
 Note: To verify the current firmware version running on a target
       6120 system, use the 'ver' command at the 6120 command line
       as follows:
 
         array00:/:&lt;3&gt;ver
 
	6120 Release 3.0.5 Thu Apr 17 14:39:37 PDT 2003 (10.4.32.97)
        Copyright (C) 1997-2003 Sun Microsystems, Inc.
        All Rights Reserved.
 
  To update the 6120 system with the entire contents of this patch follow
  the steps below after quiescing IOs from the host: 
 
 1. System Preparation
    Once the patch has been downloaded to a Solaris host, change
   directories to the patch directory and run the following command:
 
	  # pkgadd -d . SUNWc6120
 
  The resultant files will be located in the following directory:
  /var/sadm/swimages/114285-07
 
 2. Verify the 6120 system to be upgraded is reachable on the network:
 
         $ ping array00
           array00 is alive
 
 3. Verify the 6120 system working correctly. The 6120.sh script supports
 empty password, so there is no required to have password in 6120 system.
 
 
        $ telnet array00
        Trying 129.150.47.115...
        Connected to array00.
        Escape character is '^]'.

        All Rights Reserved.
 
        array00:/:&lt;1&gt;
 
 4. Transfer patch contents to 6120 system.
 
    Note: There is limited space available in the 6120's reserved system 
          area.  Therefore, it is important to be sure there is 
          adequate space on the 6120 before proceeding with the 
          procedure to ftp firmware images to the unit.  It is
          not necessary to keep old images of controller firmware, 
          unit interconnect card firmware, or eprom binaries 
          on the 6120 once those images have been loaded per the
          instructions provided in this readme.
 
    The recommended way to install the contents of this patch on 
    6120 systems is to use the included 6120.sh script from a Solaris
    host that has network access to the target 6120 system being 
    upgraded.  This utility will transfer the required files in this patch 
    to the target system depositing the files in the correct directories.  
    If a Solaris host isn't available, the contents of this patch 
    can be manually uploaded to the target 6120 system using the following
    method.  
 
      Manual File Installation
      ------------------------
 
      -&gt; Extract the contents of the 'files.tar' image to a 
         temporary working directory:
 
      -&gt; Manually ftp the following files contained in this patch  
         to the corresponding directory on the 6120 system:
 
             Patch Source Location        6120 Destination 
             -------------------------    ------------------------
              ./lpc14_6.29.bin             /lpc14_6.29.bin
              ./t4l3_306.bin               /t4l3_306.bin 
	      ./t4l2_306.bin               /t4l2_306.bin
 
           (From temporary Working Directory)
              ./etc/bat.conf               /etc/bat.conf
              ./web/*.htm                  /web
              ./web/snmp/t300.mib          /web/snmp/t300.mib
	      ./etc/zoneinfo		   /etc/zoneinfo
 
    Automated File Installation
    ---------------------------
    Note: The '6120.sh' installs all controller and system files but 
          does not overwrite /etc/hosts and /etc/syslog.conf files 
          on the target 6120 system as these files are typically
          customized per local operating environment requirements.  
          One exception to this is the battery refresh scheduler
          file on the 6120 (/etc/bat.conf).  The 6120.sh script
          will make a backup copy of this file on the 6120 (to 
          /etc/bat_old.conf) before copying over the new 
          /etc/bat.conf file.  Factory default versions of these 
          files do exist in the accompanying files.tar image in 
          this patch should they be required however.
 
    To start the installation script, first verify the target 6120 
    system can be reached through the local network (use ping to verify 
    the target 6120 system is reachable).  Once this has been confirmed,
    the installation script can be started as follows:
 
       ./6120.sh
 
    (Note: Be sure the 6120.sh script is executable.) 
 
    The 6120.sh utility will prompt for information as follows:
 
      Please Enter Hostname or IP Address Of 6120 To Be Ugpraded: 
 
       -&gt; Enter Hostname or IP address of the target 6120
          system.
 
    Please Enter Patch Location Pathname [.]: 
 
       -&gt; Enter path to where the files.tar image exists.  Typically
          the default current working directory is sufficient 
          (hitting enter will accept the current working directory).
 
    Please Enter Your Home Directory Path [/home/joe_user]:
 
       -&gt;  The home directory of the user ID used when launching the 
           6120.sh script (this is used by ftp to automatically load the patch
           file contents to the 6120).
 
    Enter ftp user
 
       -&gt;  Enter the default 6120 root login
 
    Enter ftp password
 
       -&gt;  Enter the root password for the 6120
 
    At this point, the automatic ftp login/upload process should
    begin.  
 
 5. Boot the 6120 controller boot code.
 
    From the 6120 command line, type the following to install the
    level 2 and 3 firmware code:
 
       :/:&lt;7&gt;ep download t4l3_306.bin
       :/:&lt;7&gt;ep download t4l2_306.bin
 
   (Caution: be sure all IOs have been quiesced and no host IO activity
             is scheduled to start until the upgrade procedure has completed)
 
 6. Verify system boot mode set to auto:
    From the 6120 command line, type the following:
 
       :/:&lt;9&gt;set bootmode auto
 
 7. Reset the 6120 System as follows:
 
       :/:&lt;10&gt;reset 
       Reset the system, are you sure? [N]: y
 
 8. Once the system has booted successfully, log into the system and 
    verify the boot code is properly loaded using the 'ver' command
    as outlined earlier.	
 
 9. Load new Unit Interconnect Card Firmware:
    Using 'lpc version' on the 6120, if the loop card firmware is 
    running downrev firmware, upgrade all loop cards in the partner 
    group as follows from the 6120 command line:
 
        :/:&lt;1&gt;lpc version
	               LOOP A          LOOP B
	Enclosure  1   6.27            6.27           
	Enclosure  2   6.27            6.27
 
        :/:&lt;2&gt;lpc download u1l1 lpc14_6.29.bin
 
    Repeat the above steps for all units in the partner group (ie u2l1 
    and u2l2).
 
        :/:&lt;3&gt;lpc download u1l2 lpc14_6.29.bin 
        :/:&lt;4&gt;lpc download u2l1 lpc14_6.29.bin
        :/:&lt;5&gt;lpc download u2l2 lpc14_6.29.bin
 
 
      Note: It is possible to string 6120 commands together using the 
            semicolon command.  This allows a single command line session
            to launch several commands without waiting for each command
            to complete.  To upgrade both loop cards one controller
            for example, one could type the following:
 
            :/:&lt;2&gt;lpc download u1l1 lpc14_6.29.bin; lpc download u1l2 lpc14_6.29.bin
 
    Reboot the loopcards for the upgrade to take effect:
 
	    :/:&lt;6&gt;lpc reboot u1l1
 
    Repeat the above for the other loopcards 
 
    From the command line, verify the correct unit interconnect card 
    versions are loaded as follows:
 
        :/:&lt;6&gt;lpc version
	               LOOP A          LOOP B
	Enclosure  1   6.29            6.29
	Enclosure  2   6.29            6.29
 
10. type "port list" and verify ports
 
      :/:&lt;1&gt;port list
 
	port   targetid   addr_type   status   host   wwn
	u1p1      1        hard       online   sun    20030020f204462e
	u2p1      2        hard       online   sun    20030020f2044627
 
11. Verify volumes are visible and mounted.
 
    From the command line, enter the following:
 
      :/:&lt;2&gt;vol list
	volume            capacity raid data       standby
	v0              219.197 GB    1 u1d01-13     u1d14
 
12. Setting Time Zone:
 
    From the command line, enter the following:
 
       :/:&lt;3&gt;set timezone UTC
 
13. Congratulations, the upgraded 6120 is ready to use again.

-------------------------------------------
If you plan to run several automated file installation scripts (6120.sh)
the same time on one host to update many 6120 systems, you must log in as
different users since 6120.sh script will use ~/.netrc for ftp.
