Instructions for using your Benchmark

Firmware Upgrade Utility

This page assumes that you have downloaded the appropriate firmware upgrade

utility, as well as the firmware image file from:

http://www.4benchmark.com/support/drivers.cfm

CAUTION: Benchmark recommends performing firmware upgrades during system

downtime, as it may be necessary to power down the server during this process.

Note: For NT users: For best results when using the firmware upgrade tools on an

NT system, make sure that there are no other ‘services’ started that affect the

tape drive. These would most likely be backup software application services. Go

to start > settings > control panel > services. Highlight any related service

and select “stop". If the service's status in the start up column is

"automatic", the service will automatically restart the next time the system is

rebooted. If the service's status in the start up column is "manual", you will

have to manually restart the service, if required, after firmware upgrade is

complete.

Using the Flash Upgrade Tools:

To flash the code into a tape drive, you will need a working drive or autoloader

that is attached to a system running Windows 2000, NT 4.0, 98, 95, or Linux,

with a correctly configured, functioning Single Ended (SE) or Low Voltage

Differential (LVD) SCSI bus. There should be no media in the drive.

Run the following command, depending on the upgrade program you choose:

Flash-NT

: If using Flash-NT on a Windows NT or Windows 2000 based system with a

compatible NT tape device driver loaded: From a System DOS prompt, within the

directory where both the firmware upgrade utility (Flash-NT) and the new

firmware image file reside, type the command:

flash-nt tape? filename.image

Where 'filename' is the selected firmware upgrade image file, and where '?' is

the number assigned to the tape drive by NT. If there is only one tape device

attached, this number will usually be '0'.

To confirm the drive number in Windows NT, go to start > settings > control

panel > tape devices. Highlight the tape device and select properties. The drive

number, TapeX, will be displayed on the ‘General’ tab.

To confirm the drive number in Windows 2000, right-click ‘My Computer’, select

Management > Storage > Removable Storage > Physical Locations. Right-click the

Tape Drive, then select Properties. The drive number, TapeX, will be displayed

on the ‘Device Info’ tab.

Flash-ASPI

: If using Flash-ASPI on a Windows 2000, NT, 98 or 95 system with

compatible ASPI drivers loaded: From a System DOS prompt, within the directory

where both the firmware upgrade utility (Flash-ASPI) and the new firmware image

file reside, type the command:

1 2 3
