BIOS FOR CPU 7_2

[achavesu]

Hi all.

We are trying to install Release 12 for OXE on a CPU7_2, but we need first update the cpu bios.

So, do you have the bios .hex file or do you know how obtain it?

The file requested is bsp_cpu7.hex

Thanks a lot!!

If you have PBX with CPU (installed) - you have this file (/usr2/downbin folder)
if you have system SW for installation - you have this file (/dhs3linux/comm/cpiofile.gz - open archive, file in /dhs3bin/downbin folder)

this helped me alot,,, i hope it will help you too,, basically you have to load r 11 first so the cpu 7-2 will got the new bios and then reboot the cpu. once done reinstall r12.. for some reason you cant upgrade the cpu bios from release 12 installation files.


Detailed Description Topology
OXE CPU7-2

Environment
R10.1 to R12

Scenario
The BP want to install the version R12 from a R10.1.
He uses the PC installer to install the (M140315h)
After a packet installation, there is a reboot and the system start to the old version

Version Build R12.0
Resolution
Resolution Analysis :
. Check if the CPU7_2 has 512Mb of memory and 40Go of disk -> OK
. Check the version of bios thanks the uhwconf command -> lower than the minimum 3BA24115AAFC

Solution :
To resolve the problem, you must have the good version of Bios
Bios versions greater than or equal to “3BA24115AAFC (bscpu7300/004.003)” are concerned
Latest patches in J2, K1.5 & L1 will also inherit that bios.
So the Bp has to install the lastest version patches of J2, K1.5 & L1 (to flash the new bios) and after installed the M1.403.15.h

Moreover, to install the last Bios for M140315h on another CPU, the faster is to put the HD with the M140315h in this CPU.
When the CPU starts the bios is flahed with the right version.
