Displays the status of a firmware download.
Synopsis firmwaredownloadstatus
Description Use this command to display an event log that records the progress and status of events during
FOS, SAS, and SA firmwaredownload. The event log is created by the current firmwaredownload
command and is kept until another firmwaredownload command is issued. There is a timestamp
associated with each event.
When downloading SAS or SA in systems with two control processor (CP) cards, you can only run
this command on the active CP. When downloading FOS, the event logs in the two CPs are
synchronized. This command can be run from either CP.
Note The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may
be in place. Refer to
