Note: It may sometimes be necessary to also load the device configuration – either
because the existing configuration has been corrupted during the firmware upgrade
procedure or because the existing configuration is no longer compatible with the new
firmware (the corresponding individual release notes will tell you if this is necessary).
Remote Firmware Upgrade
Pre-requisites
The MM-IM firmware upgrade is provided in the form of a Remote Firmware Upgrade (RFU)
file (*.rfu) that can be remotely transferred to the MM-IM from the Data Gatherer.
To download an RFU file to upgrade the MM-IM you will need:
■ The RFU file
■ A Master Control Data Gatherer running version 8.2 or later
■ The MM-IM to be upgraded, which must be in regular contact with the Data Gatherer
Upgrade Procedure
The Data Gatherer tool, rfuload, can be used to schedule the download of the RFU file.
Details of this tool can be found in the Master Control Data Gatherer System
Administration Manual.
Once the MM-IM RFU file has been transferred, the MM-IM will reboot to perform the
upgrade.
