Upload BMC Recovery Firmware into TFTP Server

cray-upload-recovery-images is a utility for uploading the BMC recovery files for ChassisBMCs, NodeBMCs, and RouterBMCs to be served by the cray-tftp service. The tool uses the cray CLI (fas, artifacts) and cray-tftp to download the S3 recovery images (as remembered by FAS), then upload them into the PVC that is used by cray-tftp. cray-upload-recovery-images should be run on every system.

Prerequisites

  • Cray System Management (CSM) software is installed.
  • The Cray Command Line Interface (CLI) tool is initialized and configured on the system.
  • Firmware is loaded into FAS as part of the HPC Firmware Pack (HFP) install; refer to the HPE Cray EX System HPC Firmware Pack Install Guide on the HPE Customer Support Center for more information.

Procedure

  1. Execute the cray-upload-recovery-images script.
