Hello,
A customer is trying to upgrade an FGL-2 from 2.00 to 2.20.
This is being tried on a 1.2a flash loader on a SUN Solaris
work station.
The firware file was copied from the WEB page and appears to
be copied to the SCP and the module reboots but the firmware
version does not change.
The customer sees the following errors, mixed with the normal
status messages. They did not provide all messages just:
[ERROR] BAD_VALUE_ERROR returned in response (set)
[ERROR] Processing response (set)
Does this provide enough information to indicate what is
failing ?
NOTE: The firmware file was copied to an NT 4.0 Intel box and
the customer went from 2.0 to 3.0 just fine.
Thanks
Larry Morse

No, there is insufficient information.
Note 463.7 contains all the common ways of doing upgrades wrong.
You said the firmware was copied to a different box which worked.
Did you copy the firmware from the Sun Solaris workstation or somewhere
else? If you didn't copy it from the Sun, there is no guarantee that
the file is not corrupt on the Sun.
If this always fails in the same way, I'd believe it is a
Flashloader problem.
You don't need to do intermediate upgrades to the FGLs to get to
BL3.1 (which is the current firmware). The required intermediate
upgrade is to the SCP operational firmware.

| 976.2 | almost done all should be fine | CSC32::L_MORSE | Tue Apr 29 1997 22:05 | 6 | |
The customer did the line card upgrades from the Intel box
and is up to the SCPs. He did not follow the 2.10 - 2.20
step before the 3.1 .
