sc5002SwitchActiveFirmware

Module: SC5002-MIB

OID (symbolic): SC5002-MIB::sc5002SwitchActiveFirmware

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.498.6.8.1.2.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object is used to switch the active executing firmware from the version in sc5002ActiveRev to the version in sc5002StoredRev.

When a switchActive(2) is set (write only) the element will: 1) reboot 2) uncompress stored code into active area 3) perform checksum on active area 4) Set sc5002StoredStatus object to indicate results 5) If succesfull: update sc5002ActiveFirmwareRev and sc5002StoredFirmwareRev and begin executing If failed: replace active area with previous revision

The switchNorm(1) enumeration will always be read.

Setting switchActive(2) when the sc5002StoredStatus is not statOK(3) will result in an error.

What is sc5002SwitchActiveFirmware?

This OID triggers the unit to swap its active firmware for the version currently held in storage: setting switchActive causes the unit to reboot, decompress the stored image, checksum it, and begin executing it if successful, or roll back if not. Operators must confirm sc5002StoredFirmwareStatus reports statOK first, since setting switchActive otherwise results in an error.
