Upgrading Firmware Through CLI
This Command Line Interface (CLI) provides you to congure and
manage the Areca SAS RAID controller components in Windows,
Linux, FreeBSD and more environments. The CLI is useful in
environments where a graphical user interface (GUI) is not
available. Through the CLI, you perform rmware upgrade that you
can perform with the McRAID storage manager GUI. From rmware
version 1.43 and CLI version 1.72.250 beginning, the controller has
added the rmware update through the CLI on the controller.
To update the controller rmware, follow the procedure below:
Parameter:<path=<PATH_OF_FIRMWARE_FILE>>
Fn: Firmware Updating.
Ex: Update Firmware And File Path Is In [C:\FW\ARC1110FIRM.BIN.]
Command: sys updatefw path=c:\fw\arc1212rm.bin [Enter]
