device Device on which the flash is burned.

fw-file Binary firmware file.

GUID(s) Optional, for InfiniBand adapters and 4th generation (Group I)

switches. One or four GUIDs.

If 4 GUIDS are provided (-guids flag), they will be assigned

as node, Port 1, Port 2 and sys- tem image GUIDs,

respectively.

If only one GUID is provided (-guid flag), it will be assigned

as node GUID. Its values +1, +2 and +3 will be assigned as

Port 1, Port 2 and system image GUID, respectively.

If no -guid/-guids flag is provided, the current GUIDs will be

preserved on the device.

NOTE:For 4th generation (Group I), four GUIDs must be specified but

Ports 1 and 2 GUIDs are ignored and should be set to 0.

NOTE:A GUID is a 16-digit hexadecimal number. If less than 16 digits

are provided, leading zeros will be inserted.

MAC(s)  Optional, for Ethernet and VPI adapters and switches.

If 2 MACs are provided (-macs flag), they will be assigned to

Port 1 and Port 2, respectively.

If only one MAC is provided (-mac flag), it will be assigned to

Port 1; MAC+1 will be assigned to Port 2.

If no -mac/-macs flag is provided, the current LIDs will be

preserved on the device.

NOTE:A MAC is a 12-digit hexadecimal number. If less than 12 digits

are provided, leading zeros will be inserted.

To burn a firmware image:

Update the firmware on the device, keeping the current GUIDs and VSD. (Note: This is

the common way to use the tool.

# mstflint -d 41:00.0 -i fw-4099-2_42_5000-MCX354A-FCB_A2.bin burn

Update the firmware on the device, specifying the GUIDs to burn.

# mstflint -d 41:00.0 -i fw-4099-2_42_5000-MCX354A-FCB_A2.bin -guid

1234567deadbeef burn

Update the firmware on the device, specifying the MACs to burn.

# mstflint -d 41:00.0 -i fw-4099-2_42_5000-MCX354A-FCB_A2.bin -mac

1234567deadbeef burn

Burn the image on a blank Flash device. This means that no GUIDs are currently burnt

on the device, therefore they must be supplied (with -guid/-guids) by the burning

command. Moreover, the burn process cannot be failsafe when burning a blank Flash,

therefore the -nofs flag must be specified.
