%
% DIGITAL INTERNAL USE ONLY
%
% INTRODUCTION:
% This rendition of the Digital logo was prepared by Ned Batchelder using
% Adobe Illustrator and hand manipulation of the resulting PostScript code.
% Photographic masters of the logo were obtained from David Comberg in the
% Graphic Design Group. Additional consultation was provided by Elliot
% Hendrickson, one of the original designers of the logo.
%
% USE:
% This file defines a new PostScript font, called /DigitalLogo. It consists
% of three characters. (d) is the entire Digital logo, (t) is a small
% trademark symbol, and (T) is a large trademark symbol. The font is designed
% so that the argument to scalefont is the height of the logo. There is no
% extra white space around the logo at all. The trademarks are designed to be
% shown right after the logo, and they align themselves. The only correct
% strings to show with this font are (d), (dt), and (dT). There is an entry
% (named GapWidth) in the font dictionary which gives the unscaled width of
% the gap between the blocks. This distance is given because it is used as a
% unit to determine how much space to leave around the logo.
%
% HISTORY:
% The logo was designed in 1957 by Elliot Hendrickson, who was then working
% as an independent designer. He was contracted by DEC to do a brochure, and
% DEC wanted a logo to accompany it. The logo up to then had been the letters
% DEC in blocks the shape of the plug-in cards that DEC had been producing.
% Elliot re-worked the logo, incorporating letters which were hand-drawn for
% the purpose by Arthur Hover(?). The logo has been maintained since then in
% conventional technology, ie, film masters. There was at least one reworking
% of the logo at some point.
%
% The masters I received had a number of interesting features. The boxes were
% not all the same width, and there seemed to be no logic to which boxes were
% wider. The 'g' was the narrowest, and the 'i' and 'l' were second widest.
% Also, the two 'i's were not exactly the same shape. On ten-inch masters,
% (one box to an 8�x11 sheet), the boxes were not rectangles, but were very
% slightly tapered in wierd ways. I assume that the tapering is the result of
% too many reproductions, but the difference in widths may have been
% deliberate at some time. Elliot reports that when he drew it, all boxes
% were the same width. I have retained the different widths in my version,
% since the experts I had at hand did not seem to think I should make them
% uniform.
%
% Please feel free to use this logo, but keep in mind the following:
%
% 1. This code is for INTERNAL USE ONLY.
% 2. I am not entirely happy with the final shapes of the letters, and am
% hoping to improve them. Please allow for future updates to this code.
% 3. Only use this logo within the guidelines of the Corporate Identity
% program. If you use this font precisely as is, you can't get in much
% trouble. Don't take the shapes and do strange things with them.
% In particular, the Identity states that the logo is a one-color logo: The
% letters are actually holes in the blocks, through which the background can
% be seen. Do not modify this code so that the letters are always white.

% 6-Nov-87 nmb Converted to font form.
% 9-Nov-87 nmb Removed // uses for compatibility with LW Classics

Firmware Update Information
This chapter provides firmware and utility revision
information, as well as information on where to find
firmware update images and documentation for your
AlphaServer 4100 system.
Firmware updates are performed using the SRM console's
built-in LFU utility. [Bootable LFU images are also
supported.] LFU supports multiple update devices: local
SCSI CD/ROM (CDA0), local floppy (DVA0), and local network
(EWA0). Other devices are supported for the advanced
user. Refer to Chapter 2 and the AlphaServer 4100 System
Drawer User's Guide for more information about LFU and
other console commands, environment variables to set when
performing updates off a network device, and firmware
update procedures and examples.
The SRM and AlphaBIOS consoles, and associated firmware
files such as I/O option firmware, are available via
customer update kits (CD/ROM). Order information for the

1.2 Console Firmware Components and Revision Information
The AlphaServer 4100 is shipped with two console images
- the SRM console for OpenVMS Alpha and Digital UNIX
customers and the AlphaBIOS console for Windows NT
customers and for running ARC-based utilities. The SRM
console update image (RHSRMROM.SYS) is a compressed file
which contains the following individual firmware images:

OpenVMS PALcode V1.19-5
Digital UNIX PALcode V1.21-18
Extended SROM (XSROM) V4.8
Qlogic ISP1020 Firmware V2.10
A World Wide Web site is provided for firmware updates.
Once the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9 CD/ROM becomes
available, update firmware for the AlphaServer 4100 will
be available via this update CD. At that time, a /V3.9
directory will be created on the World Wide Web (see
Section 1.6 for details).
Serial ROM (SROM) ships in a socketed part on each
AlphaServer 4100 CPU. It is reponsible for initializing
and testing enough of the machine to load Extended SROM
(XSROM) from system flash ROM. The latest SROM revision for
all AlphaServer 4100 CPU types/revisions is V2.0. Version
V1.1 SROMs can be used on all CPU types/revisions unless
you will be bypassing the embedded remote console function
and connecting to a high speed modem, in which case, you
will need V2.0 SROMs for alternate (non-9600) COM1 baud
rate support.
XSROM is reponsible for loading the SRM console and
associated PAL code. If SROM determines that the firmware
image it is supposed to load is corrupt (checksum fails),
it attempts to load the system Fail-Safe Loader (FSL) from
flash ROM. The FSL is a simple floppy loader that can be
used to load an SRM console from a floppy diskette. This

loaded console can then be used to run the AlphaServer
4100 update utility (LFU). A kit with the FSL diskette and
release notes is available. The kit contents are listed in
Table 1-3.

you be unfortunate enough to have this occur on your machine.
The AlphaBIOS console is loaded and started by the SRM
console if the SRM console's OS_TYPE environment variable
is set to "NT" or if the user enters the SRM console
ALPHABIOS command at the SRM console prompt. AlphaBIOS
is a separate, compressed image and is separately updatable
using LFU.
In general, both the SRM and AlphaBIOS consoles should be
updated at the same time since the two images which ship
on the update CD/ROM are typically qualified against one
another.
1.3 PCI I/O Option Firmware Components - Revision Information
You can also flash update firmware on certain PCI I/O
options supported by the AlphaServer 4100 using LFU.
Version V4.8-5 of the SRM console provides support for
updating the following devices' firmware:

firmware from console's system flash ROM into NVRAM on the
I/O module for all Qlogic ISP1020-based PCI options such
as the KZPDA and KZPBA. One updates SRM console firmware
to update ISP1020-based PCI option firmware. V4.8-5 console
ships with V2.10 firmware for ISP1020-based adapters. Note
that this only applies for SRM console booting, i.e. for
customers running Digital UNIX and/or OpenVMS Alpha.
___________________________________________________________
Other options, such as the KZPSC RAID controller also
provide firmware update capability. However, LFU does
not support KZPSC or KZPAC firmware updates. Refer to
the Controller Installation and Standalone Utility User's
Guide for your particular StorageWorks RAID Array subsystem
should you need to update your RAID subsystem's firmware.
1.4 Configuration Utility Kit and Version Information
The EISA Configuration Utility (ECU) is available on
separate media (floppy disks) for use on AlphaServer 4100
systems. The RAID Configuration Utility (RCU) ships on both
floppy and the Alpha Firmware CD. The KZPSA Configuration
Utility ships on the Alpha Firmware CD. For compatibility
with this firmware release, the minimum revisions of the
configuration utilities given in Table 1-5 must be used if

Firmware Update Instructions
The following sections provide instructions for updating
your system firmware.
2.1 Updating Your System Firmware
The SRM console's built-in loadable firmware update utility
(LFU) is used to update your console firmware (SRM and
AlphaBIOS consoles). LFU can also be booted as a monolithic
image off an update (e.g. using the Alpha Firmware Systems
Update CD/ROM).
The LFU utility can also be used to update KZPSA, DEFPA,
and CIPCA firmware. Mylex DAC960 RAID options such as KZPSC
and KZPAC are not supported by LFU. Refer to the Controller
Installation and Standalone Utility User's Guide for your
particular StorageWorks RAID Array subsystem should you
need to update your RAID subsystem's firmware.
LFU supports multiple update devices: local SCSI CD/ROM
(CDA0), local floppy (DVA0), and local network - Ethernet
(EWA0) and FDDI (FWA0). Other load devices are supported
for the advanced user. Refer to the AlphaServer 4100 System
Drawer User's Guide for more information about LFU and
other console commands, environment variables to set
when performing updates off a network device, and update
procedures.
Over time, you may wish to update to newer firmware
versions as features are added, new I/O option support
is added, and bug fixes are made. Updates are typically
issued about once per quarter.
Firmware Update Instructions 2-1
Firmware Update Instructions
2.2 Preparing For The Update
2.2 Preparing For The Update
You will first need to locate the appropriate firmware
update files. Look in http://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital
/Alpha/firmware/V3.9 for the /as4x00, /options, and /doc
subdirectories for the files you'll need. The list of files
required is provided below.
The SRM console's SHOW VERSION command can be used to
determine your SRM console version. The AlphaBIOS console's
version can be determined either by starting the AlphaBIOS
console via the ALPHABIOS command or by starting LFU via
the SRM console's LFU command. [You can bypass the update
file load sequence by pressing <RETURN> when LFU asks you
to specify a load device. A subsequent LIST command at the
UPD> prompt will display the current revision of AlphaBIOS
(and SRM) console firmware.]
If you don't have access to the Alpha Systems Firmware
Update CD, you'll need to copy the appropriate firmware
files to a local computer system. If you'll be updating via
floppy, you'll need either a PC with a 1.44MB compatible
floppy drive or an OpenVMS machine with access to a 1.44MB
floppy drive. If you'll be updating via network (local
MOP server), you'll need to copy the appropriate files
to your local MOP server's MOM$LOAD area with appropriate
file protection to allow your AlphaServer 4100 system to
be served by the local MOP server. You will also need to
modify the file attributes of the downloaded files. See
Section 2.2.4 for more details.
Refer to Section 1.6 for pointers to the Digital Web pages
for firmware release and update information.
2.2.1 Updating Using the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9
If you have a copy of the V3.9 (or greater) CD/ROM, simply
insert it into your AlphaServer 4100's/4000's local CD
/ROM drive. To run the update utility, type "LFU" at the
SRM console prompt and answer "CDA0" and "AS4X00FW"; then
perform the updates desired. Alternatively, you can boot
the CD/ROM directly, by typing "BOOT DKA500" (or equivalent
CD/ROM device name). A readme file is provided for your
convenience. If booting the CD directly, the readme is
automatically displayed. If using console's built-in LFU
2-2 Firmware Update Instructions
Firmware Update Instructions
2.2 Preparing For The Update
utility, the readme is only displayed upon typing "README"
at the LFU update prompt (UPD>).
2.2.2 Updating Using a FAT-Formatted Floppy Diskette
Depending upon what you wish to update, you'll need either
one or two 1.44MB floppy diskettes. If you wish to update
console firmware only or I/O option firmware only, you'll
need only a single diskette. However, if you wish to update
both console and I/O firmware, you'll need two separate
diskettes.
Proper transfer type must be used when files are copied via
ftp. Reference Section 1.6.1 for copying files, via ftp,
that are to be used for FAT-format floppy updates.
If you'll be using a FAT-formatted diskette or diskettes,
perform the following steps on your PC:
o Insert a 1.44MB FAT-formatted diskette in your floppy
drive.
o Copy the following files to diskette #1:
as4x00cp.txt
as4x00fw.txt
rhreadme.sys
rhsrmrom.sys
rharcrom.sys
o Copy the following files to diskette #2 if you'll be
updating I/O option firmware:
as4x00io.txt
rhreadme.sys
cipca315.sys
dfxaa310.sys
kzpsaa10.sys
Be sure to copy all of the aforementioned files for the
diskette(s) you need. Note that you may choose to omit
certain files from your diskette, but to do so, you must
edit the corresponding AS4X00**.TXT file or files which
point to the various .SYS update images you care about. The
AS4X00**.TXT files tell LFU which binary update images it
should copy off the load device.
Once you've created your diskette(s), insert one or the
other into your AlphaServer 4100's/4000's floppy drive.

2.2.3 Updating Using an ODS2-Formatted Floppy Diskette
Depending upon what you wish to update, you'll need either
one or two 1.44MB floppy diskettes. If you wish to update
console firmware only or I/O option firmware only, you'll
need only a single diskette. However, if you wish to update
both console and I/O firmware, you'll need two separate
diskettes.
If you will be using an ODS2-formatted diskette or
diskettes, use the following OpenVMS command procedure(s)
to create your floppy diskette(s):
If creating a diskette for updating your console only:

Once you've created your diskette(s), insert one or the
other into your AlphaServer 4100's/4000's floppy drive.
2.2.4 Updating Off Network Via Your Local MOP Server
Copy all of the following files to your local MOP server's
MOM$LOAD directory:
as4x00cp.sys
as4x00fw.sys
as4x00io.sys
cipca315.sys
dfxaa310.sys
kzpsaa10.sys
rhreadme.sys
rhsrmrom.sys
rharcrom.sys
rhreadme.sys
Make sure the files will be accessible via your target
AlphaServer 4100 system. Also, be sure not to change the
names of any files. Downloaded files require an additional
step for MOP loads; the file attributes must be modified to
a proper VMS fixed-record format. Use the following OpenVMS
Firmware Update Instructions 2-5
Firmware Update Instructions
2.2 Preparing For The Update
command on each downloaded file before using the files for
MOP booting.
$ set file/attr=rfm:fix,lrl:512,mrs:512,rat:none *.sys
2.3 Performing The Update
If your machine is currently running an operating system,
issue the appropriate shutdown command to gracefully shut
down your operating system. You may need to use the front-
panel Halt button (depressed, so Halt LED is on) and a
subsequent system reset to halt your machine at the SRM
console.
If running Digital UNIX or OpenVMS Alpha, once halted at
the SRM console, reset the machine and wait for console
to come back up. Firmware updates may not work following
an operating system shutdown without a subsequent system
reset. Always reset the machine following a UNIX/VMS
shutdown if you plan on performing a firmware update. At
the SRM console prompt, issue the LFU command to start the
built-in firmware update utility.
If running Windows NT, either select the "Update AlphaBIOS"
menu item in the Setup menu to run LFU automatically or
select the SRM console (Digital UNIX or OpenVMS operating
system) and then reset your machine to manually start LFU.
If manually started, type LFU at the SRM console prompt
once the machine has halted at the SRM console.
First, LFU will ask you to specify a load device - the
device from which LFU will load the console and/or I/O
option firmware update files.
o If local CD/ROM, answer "CDA0".
o If floppy, answer "DVA0".
o If network, answer "EWA0" if Digital PCI Ethernet or
"FWA0" if Digital PCI FDDI (DEFPA).
LFU will then prompt for a firmware files list file name.
Use the following guide to ensure that you have provided
the appropriate response:
o If local CD/ROM, answer "AS4X00FW".
2-6 Firmware Update Instructions
Firmware Update Instructions
2.3 Performing The Update
o If floppy, answer "AS4X00CP" or "AS4X00IO" depending
upon whether you wish to update only console or only
I/O option firmware. You must have the diskette with the
corresponding files list in your drive. If your console
is currently at revision V1.2 or greater, you can also
specify "AS4X00FW" to request LFU to load files off the
"CP/FW" diskette and then prompt you for the remaining
I/O option update files from the "IO" diskette. LFU will
prompt you to insert the new floppy when appropriate
when "AS4X00FW" is used.
Note: if using two diskettes, after updating off
one floppy, you can perform remaining updates off
diskette #2 by re-invoking LFU via the LFU command at
the utility's UPD> prompt and providing the alternate
firmware files list file name when requested for input.
o If network, answer "AS4X00FW", "AS4X00CP", or "AS4X00IO"
depending upon whether you want all update firmware
(console + I/O option), only console, or only I/O
option, respectively.
A sample session is provided below of an update of SRM from

_________________________________________________________________
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
It is recommended that you read this section in its
entirety prior to using your AlphaServer 4100 machine.
3.1 Memory Tests Can Take a Very Long Time!
Memory is tested by each CPU each time you power on or
reset your machine. These tests can take upwards of several
minutes on very large memory, single-CPU machines. The
XSROM firmware responsible for testing memory prints a
rotating asterisk as part of the operator control panel
(OCP) display during the memory march test (Test 24).
The rotating asterisk stops once testing has completed.
Additionally, beginning with V3.0 SRM console, if both
the CONSOLE environment variable is set to serial and
the MEMORY_TEST environment variable is set to full an
estimated test time will be printed.
________________________ Note ________________________
If running OpenVMS or Digital UNIX, the MEMORY_TEST
environment variable must be set to FULL (default).
PARTIAL and NONE are not supported.
______________________________________________________
3.2 Selecting Which Console Is Loaded and Your Display Device
Your system likely came pre-configured to run a particular
operating system. There are two SRM console environment
variables that play a key role in determining which console
will be the final console loaded on a power-on/reset (SRM
console or AlphaBIOS console) and which display device (VT-
type terminal or graphics device) the console will default
to. These two environment variables (EVs) are the OS_TYPE
and CONSOLE EVs, respectively.
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine 3-1

3.2 Selecting Which Console Is Loaded and Your Display Device
If OS_TYPE is set to "NT", the SRM console will
automatically load and start the AlphaBIOS console from
system flash ROM during power-on/reset. If OS_TYPE is
set to "OpenVMS" or "UNIX", the SRM console will not load
AlphaBIOS. If OS_TYPE is set to "NT", you can depress the
front panel Halt button (LED on) and then reset the machine
to force the SRM console to not load AlphaBIOS. In this
situation, the SRM console will stop at the SRM console
prompt. Not only will it not load AlphaBIOS if OS_TYPE=NT,
but it will also not allow booting until the Halt button
has been restored to the out position.
If CONSOLE is set to "SERIAL", the SRM console will
power-on in serial mode and will print power-up display
information to COM1 (assuming a VT-like device is connected
at the other end). If CONSOLE is set to "GRAPHICS", the
SRM console expects to find a VGA card in PCI0 and will
attempt to print to the VGA monitor after PCI sizing and
configuration has completed.
Note: you will not see any console display output on
your VT or VGA display if CONSOLE is set to "GRAPHICS"
until power-up testing and sizing has completed *and* VGA
initialization has completed. This can take upwards of
several minutes depending upon your system configuration.
With CONSOLE set to "GRAPHICS", you will only see display
output on your operator control panel (OCP) display until
the PCIs have been (and more specifically, the VGA has
been) initialized, at which point you should see output to
console terminal display device (in this case, VGA).
Once console has fully initialized the system, if OS_TYPE
is not set to "NT", the SRM console will allow logins
at either the VT or graphics device, irrespective of
the CONSOLE EV setting. This assumes the SRM console's
TT_ALLOW_LOGIN environment variable is set to "1". For
example, on a machine configured with CONSOLE set to
"GRAPHICS", pressing <Return> or <Enter> at the keyboard of
a connected VT device should return a console prompt at the
VT device (i.e. over COM1). Console will only honor this
login attempt if OS_TYPE is not set "NT" and only after
console has fully initialized the system and attempted to
return the console prompt on the graphics display device.

Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.2 Selecting Which Console Is Loaded and Your Display Device
The same holds true in the reverse situation where CONSOLE
is set to "SERIAL", but the user wishes to log in at a
connected and properly cabled and configured graphics
display device.
3.3 Configuring Your Machine Prior to Booting
There are several SRM console environment variables and
built-in utilities that you may need to use to set up your
system prior to booting the OpenVMS Alpha or Digital UNIX
operating system. Examples include:
o Setting EWn0_MODE and EWn0_PROTOCOLS environment
variables (EVs) for your Ethernet network device.
o Setting PKn0_HostID, PKn0_Fast, PKn0_SoftTerm, and PKn0_
Disconnect EVs to configure your PCI SCSI controllers.
Use the KZPSAn_XXXX EVs for setting up KZPSA parameters.
[The SRM console KZPSA_EDIT command or the ARC-based
KZPSA utilities can also be used for these purposes.]
o Configuring your KFPSA and DSSI subsystem using the SET
HOST -DUP command and/or CDP command.
You may also need to run one or more of the following ARC-
based utilities before booting your operating system:
o EISA Configuration Utility (ECU)
o RAID Configuration Utility (RCU)
o KZPSA Configuration Utility (or use the SRM console's
KZPSA*_XXXX environment variables to configure Host ID
and Fast mode)
Refer to the AlphaServer 4100 System Drawer User's Guide
for more details about configuring your machine prior
to booting. The following chapter also provides a brief
overview on running ARC-based utilities.

3.5 Enhancements and New Features in the V4.8 SRM Console
The following items are supported with V4.8 console
firmware:
1. UNIX V4.0B (also V4.0A, 3.2G and V3.2F)
2. VMS V7.1 (also V6.2-1H3)
3-4 Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.5 Enhancements and New Features in the V4.8 SRM Console
The following enhancements have been made:
1. The FRU_TABLE environment variable default has
been changed to ON. FRU Table Version 4.0 support
is implemented in the DECevent Knowledge Library
(.KNL files ) update to DECevent V2.3. If you are
not running with this version of DECevent then you
should either update DECevent (web site for DECevent:
http://www.service.digital.com/decevent/) or set the
environment variable to OFF. Note: Using an earlier
version of DECevent with the FRU_TABLE set to ON may
hang the system. Using a non-updated DECevent V2.3
version with FRU_TABLE set to ON will display a message
indicating no support for the V4 FRU table. Reference
Section 3.11 for more details.
2. Support has been added for the system AlphaServer 4000
with I/O upgrade.
3. Official support for AlphaServer 4100/4000 466 MHz CPUs.
Note: V3.0-10 console listed support for the 466MHz CPUs
but qualification of these CPUs brought to light some
power-up and test issues. V4.8 console or greater must
be used on systems with 466 MHz CPUs.
4. Support for the B3004-BA (EV56 300 MHz 2MB cache)
CPU. The B3002-AB (EV5 300 MHz 2MB cache) and B3004-
BA CPUs can be mixed in the same system. If mixed,
you are required to configure the B3002-AB as the
primary CPU - this is typically CPU0. NOTE: Systems
running OpenVMS (V6.2-1H3 or V7.1) require a patch image
(ALPCPU1601_071) to support the B3002 and B3004 in mixed
configurations.
5. Support for BOOTP booting (RIS installs) over FDDI
(DEFPA).
6. Support for network booting across subnets.
7. Minor enhancements have been made to OpenVMS and
Digital UNIX PALcode for slight improvement in interrupt
performance.
8. Support has been added for FAT floppy writes from
console.

3.5 Enhancements and New Features in the V4.8 SRM Console
9. New scripts for saving and restoring NVRAM (used for
AlphaBIOS and SRM environment variable and other
parameters, as well as ECU data) to/from a floppy
diskette (script names are SAVE_NVRAM and RESTORE_NVRAM)
have been added. Please reference Appendix A for more
information on these scripts.
10.A version change to V4.8 was made in order to
synchronize with other AlphaServer platform console
versions which ship on the Alpha Systems Firmware Update
CD.
3.6 Bugs Fixed in V4.8 Console Which Were Present in V3.0
V4.8 SRM console fixes the following bugs (in V3.0-10):
1. A fix for proper handling of I/O-detected, single-bit
(CRD) errors detected while running OpenVMS, Digital
UNIX, or console TEST. Previous versions of PALcode
could erroneously report 630 CRD errors as 620s and
potentially with error frames skewed by one byte,
thereby making DECevent analysis quite difficult.
2. A fix for the problem on systems running OpenVMS where a
machine check 660 or 670 results in the system stopping
at an XDELTA breakpoint and not continuing with a
crash dump. This problem occurs on OpenVMS systems
configured with a VGA adapter in the PCI backplane
and is independent of the CONSOLE setting (SERIAL or
GRAPHICS).
3. A fix for a BOOT command hang seen when the environment
variable, BOOTDEF_DEV is set to a device and the
device's adapter gets swapped with a non-boot adapter.
For example, a KZPSA is swapped with a VGA adapter.
4. Support has been added for handling SCSI bus resets in
the middle of booting. This change fixes a hang problem
seen with simultaneous boots and crash dumps in a SCSI
cluster with a shared KZPSA bus.
5. A fix for a CIPCA hang seen if a SHOW DEVICE or BOOT
command is executed while an attached HSC70 is offline.
6. Several fixes for the TEST command involving CIPCA and
/or 8 GB memory configurations.

3.7 Bugs Fixed in V5.28 AlphaBIOS Which Were Present in V5.24
1. Support for mixed CPU type: B3002-AB and B3004-BA.
2. Native Mylex driver version V4.03.08 included.
3. Native Qlogic driver version V2.22 included.
4. Display the correct SCSI ID for SCSI devices that
support adapter or controller SCSI ID assigment.
5. SCSI ID removed from SCSIBIOS controlled device
messages.
6. Correctly quantify secondary processors as Ready.
3.8 SRM Console Firmware Bugs and Restrictions
The following are known bugs and restrictions with
AlphaServer 4100 SRM console firmware version V4.8.
1. If running OpenVMS or Digital UNIX, the MEMORY_TEST
environment variable must be set to FULL (default).
PARTIAL and NONE are not yet supported.
2. VGAs configured as console display devices must be in
PCI0.
3. The system must be reset prior to running LFU from
console. Booting the LFU off CD/ROM does not require
a system reset.
4. A minimum S3 V+ VGA BIOS version of 2.16.07 is required
for 1MB boards. Version 2.36.07 is the minimum required
S3 V+ VGA BIOS for 2MB boards.
3.9 DE500-AA Fast EtherWORKS Adapter Auto-negotiation
The console supports the DE500-AA Fast EtherWORKS PCI 10
/100-TX Adapter. The DE500-AA supports auto-negotiation
which is a mechanism to determine the speed of the Ethernet
and adjust the DE500-AA speed to the fastest compatible
speed of the Ethernet.
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine 3-7
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.9 DE500-AA Fast EtherWORKS Adapter Auto-negotiation
_______________________ Caution _______________________
Use Auto-negotiation only when the Ethernet, to
which the DE500-AA is connected, fully supports this
mechanism.
______________________________________________________
Auto-negotiation works from the console in the following
way: If a DE500-AA is connected to an Ethernet which
supports auto-negotiation and is on-line (such that the
Ethernet device on the other end of the wire is running an
operating system, then the DE500-AA line speed will be set
to a negotiated speed of the Ethernet. If the Ethernet does
not support auto-negotiation or the device on the other end
of the Ethernet is off-line (the operating system is not
running), then the line speed of the DE500-AA will default
to 100BaseTX full duplex.
Auto-negotiation is enabled on the DE500-AA from the
console environment variable ew*0_mode; were * is the
device id. e.g. ewa0_mode. Set ew*0_mode is explained in
the next section.
3.9.1 Set EW*0_Mode Auto-Negotiate
To enable auto-negotiate mode in the DE500-AA do the
following:
________________________ Note ________________________
Only use this mode if your Ethernet environment
supports auto-negotiation. Otherwise set the mode
to Twisted for 10BaseTx or to Fast or FastFD for
100BaseTX half-duplex or full-duplex respectively,
______________________________________________________
P00>>> set ew*0_mode auto-negotiate
It will take several seconds before you see the P00>>> prompt
to get the DE500-AA into auto-negotiate mode.
Warning: Use auto-negotiate ONLY if the DE500-AA is connected
to an Ethernet which supports auto-negotiate. Otherwise the
DE500-AA will respond with a link failure message and then default
to 100BaseTX full-duplex. Review the
following examples:
3-8 Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.9 DE500-AA Fast EtherWORKS Adapter Auto-negotiation
Example-1: Setting to auto-negotiate on a system where
the Ethernet does not support auto-negotiate or there is no
response from the
Ethernet, from the console, you see the following:
P00>>> set ewc0_mode auto-negotiate (this takes a few seconds)
ewc0: link failed : Using 100BaseTX full duplex
In the above case change ewc0_mode to Twisted to use the DE500-AA in
a 10BaseTx environment.
Example-2: Setting to auto-negotiate on a system where
the Ethernet does not support auto-negotiate but supports
100BaseTX half
duplex, from the console, you see the following:
P00>>> set ewc0_mode auto-negotiate
ewc0: link failed : Using 100BaseTX full duplex
In the above case change ewc0_mode to FAST to use the DE500-AA
in a 100BaseTx
half-duplex environment.
Example-3: Setting to auto-negotiate on a system where the
Ethernet does not support auto-negotiate but supports 100BaseTX
full duplex,
from the console, you see the following:
P00>>> set ewc0_mode auto-negotiate (wait a few seconds)
ewc0: link failed : Using 100BaseTX full duplex
In the above case change ewc0_mode to FASTFD to use the DE500-AA in
a 100BaseTx Full Duplex environment.
End of examples.
3.9.2 Behavior Note on Systems with Multiple DE500-AA's
Operating Systems may take longer than average to reboot
when the systems have multiple DE500-AA that are all set
to auto-negotiate mode. This is because of the time it
may take for auto-negotiation mode to stabalize for each
DE500-AA.
3.10 Note on UNIX installations
When installing Digital UNIX from the graphics console, the
screen may scroll past the following instructions to set
console environmental variables and to boot the operating
system. If you experiance this symptom do the following to

3.11 FRU Table Version 4 and DECevent
V4.0 FRU table format is new as of the V3.0-10 console. SRM
consoles prior to V3.0-10 use V2 FRU table format. A new
environment variable, FRU_TABLE, has been implemented as of
the V3.0-10. The default value is set to OFF and should not
be changed unless the system is running with the DECevent
"Knowledge Library" update to DECevent V2.3.
_______________________ Caution _______________________
SRM console V4.8-5 changes the environment variable
FRU_TABLE default to ON. If the system is not running
DECevent V2.3 with the "Knowledge Library" update then
you should either update the DECevent version or set
the environment variable to OFF.
______________________________________________________
DECevent V2.3, in its initial release with UNIX V4.0B and
OpenVMS V7.1 does not support the new FRU Table Version 4
Configuration Entry. Support is available with the DECevent
"Knowledge Library" (.KNL files) update to DECevent V2.3
kit released in December 1996. The update kit to DECevent
V2.3, for FRU Table Version 4 support, is also available
from the publicly accessible DECevent web site at: http:/
/www.service.digital.com/decevent/
Using an earlier version of DECevent with the FRU_TABLE set
to ON may hang the system. Using a non-updated DECevent
V2.3 version with FRU_TABLE set to ON will display a
message indicating no support for the V4 FRU table.
The DECevent command "SHOW KNL" can be used to display
the current version of .KNL files (Knowledge Libraries)
installed. The .KNL file versions shipping with the initial
DECevent V2.3 release is KNL023.0 The .KNL file version
which will ship with the FRU Table Version 4 update to the
DECevent V2.3 kit will be KNL023.1 or later. If the .KNL
file version is not KNL023.1 or greater, when executing a
DECevent V2.3 "Show KNL" command, you do not have FRU Table

Running EISA, RAID, and Other Configuration Utilities
To help configure an AlphaServer 4100 system, various
utilities may need to be run before booting your operating
system. The ECU, RCU, and KZPSA Configuration utilities
are examples - these utilities run on top of the AlphaBIOS
console since they use ARC-based callbacks based on the
Advanced RISC Computing (ARC) Specification developed by
Microsoft.
4.1 Setting Up Your System to Run ARC-based Utilities
To invoke one or more of these utilities, you must first
bring up the AlphaBIOS console. Do so by entering the
ALPHABIOS command at the SRM console prompt or by setting
the SRM console's OS_TYPE environment variable (EV) to "NT"
and then resetting your machine. If you have a graphics
display device installed in your machine, you may wish to
set the CONSOLE EV to "GRAPHICS" before invoking AlphaBIOS
since it and the associated utilities are graphically
oriented. [They do support serial line mode, however. See
Section 4.2 for more details.]
4.2 Using a Serial line Interface to Run ARC-based Utilities
These utilities can be run either in graphics or serial
mode. The SRM console's CONSOLE environment variable
controls which mode AlphaBIOS runs in at the time it is
loaded by the SRM console.
To run AlphaBIOS and ARC-based utilities in serial mode,
CONSOLE must be set SERIAL and the terminal must be a VT320
or greater with the following settings:
o 8-bit character mode.
o '~' key set to send ESC.
Running EISA, RAID, and Other Configuration Utilities 4-1
Running EISA, RAID, and Other Configuration Utilities
4.2 Using a Serial line Interface to Run ARC-based Utilities
Refer to your user documentation (e.g., AlphaServer 4100
System Drawer User's Guide) for details about running
utilities such as ECU, RCU, and other ARC-based utilities.
4.3 Restrictions When Running KZPSA Utilities
You must use V1.4 of the KZPSA Firmware Update Utility
(FWUPDATE.EXE) if you wish to use it rather than LFU to
update your KZPSA firmware. Note: running earlier versions
of the KZPSA FWUPDATE.EXE utility will corrupt the NVRAM on
your KZPSA and disable the module and your system!
Restrictions also exist if using the KZPSA CNFGDIAG.EXE
utility. For one, you must use version V1.5 or greater on
an AlphaServer 4100 system. The following release notes
apply to V1.5 of the CNFGDIAG.EXE utility:
Table 4-1 KZPSA CNFGDIAG.EXE (V1.5) Issues/Bugs With SCSI
Options

3. Latest Firmware Update Revisions
The latest Firmware Update Bootfile "AS4X00_V4_8.EXE" on the Alpha Firmware
CD V3.9, contains V4.8-5 SRM Console, which has the following components:
(* = CHANGED since last release)
--> SRM console V4.8-5 *
--> XSROM V4.8 *
--> OpenVMS PALcode V1.19-5 *
--> Digital UNIX PALcode V1.21-18 *
--> AlphaBIOS console V5.28-0 *
--> CIPCA FW version A315
--> DEFPA FW version V3.10 *
--> ISP1020 FW version V2.10 (included in SRM console)
--> KZPSA FW version A10
4. Firmware Enhancements and New Features (SRM and AlphaBIOS Consoles)
V4.8 SRM console adds the following new features:
--> The FRU_TABLE environment variable default has been changed to ON. FRU
Table Version 4.0 support is implemented in the DECevent Knowledge
Library (.KNL files ) update to DECevent V2.3. If you are not running
with this version of DECevent then you should either update DECevent
(web site for DECevent: http://www.service.digital.com/decevent/) or set
the environment variable to OFF. Please read the V4.8 firmware release
notes for more details.
--> Support for AlphaServer 4000 with expanded I/O support (Spring, 1997).
--> Official support for AlphaServer 4100/4000 466 MHz CPUs. Note: V3.0-10
console claimed support for the 466MHz CPUs but qualification of these
CPUs brought to light some power-up and test issues. V4.8 console or
greater must be used on systems with 466 MHz CPUs.
--> Support for the B3004-BA (EV56 300 MHz 2MB cache) CPU. The B3002-AB (EV5
300 MHz 2MB cache) and B3004-BA CPUs can be mixed in the same system. If
mixed, you are required to configure the B3002-AB as the primary CPU -
this is typically CPU0.
--> Support for BOOTP booting (RIS installs) over FDDI (DEFPA).
--> Support for network booting across subnets.
--> Minor enhancements to OpenVMS and Digital UNIX PALcode for slight
improvement in interrupt performance.
--> Support for FAT floppy writes from console.
--> Scripts for saving and restoring NVRAM (used for AlphaBIOS and SRM
environment variable and other parameters, as well as ECU data) to/from
a floppy diskette (script names are SAVE_NVRAM and RESTORE_NVRAM).
--> Version change to V4.8 to synchronize with other AlphaServer platform
console versions which ship on the Alpha Systems Firmware Update CD.
V4.8 SRM console fixes the following bugs (in V3.0-10):
--> Fix for proper handling of I/O-detected, single-bit (CRD) errors
detected while running OpenVMS, Digital UNIX, or console TEST.
Previous versions of PALcode could erroneously report 630 CRD errors
as 620s; potentially with error frames skewed by one byte, thereby
making DECevent analysis quite difficult.
--> Fix for the problem on systems running OpenVMS where a machine check
660 or 670 results in the system stopping at an XDELTA breakpoint and
not continuing with a crash dump. This problem occurs on OpenVMS
systems configured with a VGA adapter in the PCI backplane and is
independent of the CONSOLE setting (SERIAL or GRAPHICS).
--> Fix for BOOT command hang if BOOTDEF_DEV is set to a device and the
device's adapter gets swapped with a non-boot adapter. For example,
a KZPSA is swapped with a VGA adapter.
--> Fix for CIPCA hang if type a SHOW DEVICE or BOOT command with an HSC70
offline.
--> Fixes for TEST command involving CIPCA or 8 GB memory configurations.
--> Support for handling SCSI bus resets in the middle of booting. Fixes
a hang problem seen with simultaneous boots and crash dumps in a SCSI
cluster with a shared KZPSA bus.
V5.48 AlphaBIOS includes the following changes since AlphaBIOS V5.24:
--> Support for mixed CPU type: B3002-AB and B3004-BA.
--> Native Mylex driver version V4.03.08 included.
--> Native Qlogic driver version V2.22 included.
--> Display the correct SCSI ID for SCSI devices that support adapter
or controller SCSI ID assigment.
--> SCSI ID removed from SCSIBIOS controlled device messages.
--> Correctly quantify secondary processors as Ready.
5. Firmware Anomalies, Restrictions, and Workarounds
--> If running OpenVMS or Digital UNIX, the MEMORY_TEST environment variable
must be set to FULL (default). PARTIAL and NONE are not supported.
--> VGAs configured as console display devices must be in PCI0.
--> The system must be reset prior to running LFU from console. Booting the
LFU off CD/ROM does not require a system reset.
--> A minimum S3 V+ VGA BIOS version of 2.16.07 is required for 1MB boards
(2.36.07 for 2MB boards).

%
% DIGITAL INTERNAL USE ONLY
%
% INTRODUCTION:
% This rendition of the Digital logo was prepared by Ned Batchelder using
% Adobe Illustrator and hand manipulation of the resulting PostScript code.
% Photographic masters of the logo were obtained from David Comberg in the
% Graphic Design Group. Additional consultation was provided by Elliot
% Hendrickson, one of the original designers of the logo.
%
% USE:
% This file defines a new PostScript font, called /DigitalLogo. It consists
% of three characters. (d) is the entire Digital logo, (t) is a small
% trademark symbol, and (T) is a large trademark symbol. The font is designed
% so that the argument to scalefont is the height of the logo. There is no
% extra white space around the logo at all. The trademarks are designed to be
% shown right after the logo, and they align themselves. The only correct
% strings to show with this font are (d), (dt), and (dT). There is an entry
% (named GapWidth) in the font dictionary which gives the unscaled width of
% the gap between the blocks. This distance is given because it is used as a
% unit to determine how much space to leave around the logo.
%
% HISTORY:
% The logo was designed in 1957 by Elliot Hendrickson, who was then working
% as an independent designer. He was contracted by DEC to do a brochure, and
% DEC wanted a logo to accompany it. The logo up to then had been the letters
% DEC in blocks the shape of the plug-in cards that DEC had been producing.
% Elliot re-worked the logo, incorporating letters which were hand-drawn for
% the purpose by Arthur Hover(?). The logo has been maintained since then in
% conventional technology, ie, film masters. There was at least one reworking
% of the logo at some point.
%
% The masters I received had a number of interesting features. The boxes were
% not all the same width, and there seemed to be no logic to which boxes were
% wider. The 'g' was the narrowest, and the 'i' and 'l' were second widest.
% Also, the two 'i's were not exactly the same shape. On ten-inch masters,
% (one box to an 8�x11 sheet), the boxes were not rectangles, but were very
% slightly tapered in wierd ways. I assume that the tapering is the result of
% too many reproductions, but the difference in widths may have been
% deliberate at some time. Elliot reports that when he drew it, all boxes
% were the same width. I have retained the different widths in my version,
% since the experts I had at hand did not seem to think I should make them
% uniform.
%
% Please feel free to use this logo, but keep in mind the following:
%
% 1. This code is for INTERNAL USE ONLY.
% 2. I am not entirely happy with the final shapes of the letters, and am
% hoping to improve them. Please allow for future updates to this code.
% 3. Only use this logo within the guidelines of the Corporate Identity
% program. If you use this font precisely as is, you can't get in much
% trouble. Don't take the shapes and do strange things with them.
% In particular, the Identity states that the logo is a one-color logo: The
% letters are actually holes in the blocks, through which the background can
% be seen. Do not modify this code so that the letters are always white.
%

% 6-Nov-87 nmb Converted to font form.
% 9-Nov-87 nmb Removed // uses for compatibility with LW Classics

Firmware Update Information
This chapter provides firmware and utility revision
information, as well as information on where to find
firmware update images and documentation for your
AlphaServer 4100 system.
Firmware updates are performed using the SRM console's
built-in LFU utility. [Bootable LFU images are also
supported.] LFU supports multiple update devices: local
SCSI CD-ROM (CDA0), local floppy (DVA0), and local network
(EWA0). Other devices are supported for the advanced
user. Refer to Chapter 2 and the AlphaServer 4100 System
Drawer User's Guide for more information about LFU and
other console commands, environment variables to set when
performing updates off a network device, and firmware
update procedures and examples.
The SRM and AlphaBIOS consoles, and associated firmware
files such as I/O option firmware, are available via
customer update kits (CD-ROM). Order information for the
customer update kit, as well as a pointer to WWW pages
which can be used to obtain interim firmware releases
of AlphaServer 4100 firmware, is available later in this
chapter.

A World Wide Web site is provided for firmware updates.
Once the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9 CD-ROM becomes
available, update firmware for the AlphaServer 4100 will
be available via this update CD. At that time, a /V3.9
directory will be created on the World Wide Web (see
Section 1.6 for details).
________________________ Note ________________________
Version V4.8-6 of the SRM console is not available
on the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9 CD-ROM. The
V4.8-6 firmware files and complete release notes are
available from the World Wide Web at the following lo-
cation: ftp://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/firmware/interim/as4x00/
______________________________________________________
Serial ROM (SROM) ships in a socketed part on each
AlphaServer 4100 CPU. It is reponsible for initializing
and testing enough of the machine to load Extended SROM
(XSROM) from system flash ROM. The latest SROM revision for
all AlphaServer 4100 CPU types/revisions is V2.0. Version
V1.1 SROMs can be used on all CPU types/revisions unless
you will be bypassing the embedded remote console function
and connecting to a high speed modem, in which case, you
will need V2.0 SROMs for alternate (non-9600) COM1 baud
rate support.
XSROM is reponsible for loading the SRM console and
associated PAL code. If SROM determines that the firmware
image it is supposed to load is corrupt (checksum fails),
it attempts to load the system Fail-Safe Loader (FSL) from
flash ROM. The FSL is a simple floppy loader that can be
used to load an SRM console from a floppy diskette. This
loaded console can then be used to run the AlphaServer
4100 update utility (LFU). A kit with the FSL diskette and
release notes is available. The kit contents are listed in
Table 1-3.

Contact your local Digital Services representative for
instructions on how to use FSL to recover your firmware
should you be unfortunate enough to have this occur on your
machine.
The AlphaBIOS console is loaded and started by the SRM
console if the SRM console's OS_TYPE environment variable
is set to "NT" or if the user enters the SRM console
ALPHABIOS command at the SRM console prompt. AlphaBIOS
is a separate, compressed image and is separately updatable
using LFU.
In general, both the SRM and AlphaBIOS consoles should be
updated at the same time since the two images which ship
on the update CD-ROM are typically qualified against one
another.
1.3 PCI I/O Option Firmware Components - Revision Information
You can also flash update firmware on certain PCI I/O
options supported by the AlphaServer 4100 using LFU.
Version V4.8-5 of the SRM console provides support for
updating the following devices' firmware:

Firmware Update Instructions
The following sections provide instructions for updating
your system firmware.
2.1 Updating Your System Firmware
The SRM console's built-in loadable firmware update utility
(LFU) is used to update your console firmware (SRM and
AlphaBIOS consoles). LFU can also be booted as a monolithic
image off an update (e.g. using the Alpha Firmware Systems
Update CD-ROM).
The LFU utility can also be used to update KZPSA, DEFPA,
and CIPCA firmware. Mylex DAC960 RAID options such as KZPSC
and KZPAC are not supported by LFU. Refer to the Controller
Installation and Standalone Utility User's Guide for your
particular StorageWorks RAID Array subsystem should you
need to update your RAID subsystem's firmware.
LFU supports multiple update devices: local SCSI CD-ROM
(CDA0), local floppy (DVA0), and local network - Ethernet
(EWA0) and FDDI (FWA0). Other load devices are supported
for the advanced user. Refer to the AlphaServer 4100 System
Drawer User's Guide for more information about LFU and
other console commands, environment variables to set
when performing updates off a network device, and update
procedures.
Over time, you may wish to update to newer firmware
versions as features are added, new I/O option support
is added, and bug fixes are made. Updates are typically
issued about once per quarter.
2.2 Preparing For The Update
You will first need to locate the appropriate
firmware update files. For the V4.8-6 files look in
http://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/interim/ for the
/as4x00 subdirectory for the console files you'll need. The
list of files required is provided below.
________________________ Note ________________________
The /options area was not updated. For options files
use the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9 area.
This release notes document supercedes any previous
release notes.
______________________________________________________
Firmware Update Instructions 2-1
Firmware Update Instructions
2.2 Preparing For The Update
The SRM console's SHOW VERSION command can be used to
determine your SRM console version. The AlphaBIOS console's
version can be determined either by starting the AlphaBIOS
console via the ALPHABIOS command or by starting LFU via
the SRM console's LFU command. [You can bypass the update
file load sequence by pressing <RETURN> when LFU asks you
to specify a load device. A subsequent LIST command at the
UPD> prompt will display the current revision of AlphaBIOS
(and SRM) console firmware.]
If you don't have access to the Alpha Systems Firmware
Update CD, you'll need to copy the appropriate firmware
files to a local computer system. If you'll be updating via
floppy, you'll need either a PC with a 1.44MB compatible
floppy drive or an OpenVMS machine with access to a 1.44MB
floppy drive. If you'll be updating via network (local
MOP server), you'll need to copy the appropriate files
to your local MOP server's MOM$LOAD area with appropriate
file protection to allow your AlphaServer 4100 system to
be served by the local MOP server. You will also need to
modify the file attributes of the downloaded files. See
Section 2.2.4 for more details.
Refer to Section 1.6 for pointers to the Digital Web pages
for firmware release and update information.
2.2.1 Updating Using the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9
If you have a copy of the V3.9 (or greater) CD-ROM, simply
insert it into your AlphaServer 4100's/4000's local CD-
ROM drive. To run the update utility, type "LFU" at the
SRM console prompt and answer "CDA0" and "AS4X00FW"; then
perform the updates desired. Alternatively, you can boot
the CD-ROM directly, by typing "BOOT DKA500" (or equivalent
CD-ROM device name). A readme file is provided for your
convenience. If booting the CD directly, the readme is
automatically displayed. If using console's built-in LFU
utility, the readme is only displayed upon typing "README"
at the LFU update prompt (UPD>).
2.2.2 Updating Using a FAT-Formatted Floppy Diskette
Depending upon what you wish to update, you'll need either
one or two 1.44MB floppy diskettes. If you wish to update
console firmware only or I/O option firmware only, you'll
need only a single diskette. However, if you wish to update
both console and I/O firmware, you'll need two separate
diskettes.
Proper transfer type must be used when files are copied via
ftp. Reference Section 1.6.1 for copying files, via ftp,
that are to be used for FAT-format floppy updates.
If you'll be using a FAT-formatted diskette or diskettes,
perform the following steps on your PC:
o Insert a 1.44MB FAT-formatted diskette in your floppy
drive.
2-2 Firmware Update Instructions
Firmware Update Instructions
2.2 Preparing For The Update
o Copy the following files to diskette #1:
as4x00cp.sys
as4x00fw.sys
rhreadme.sys
rhsrmrom.sys
rharcrom.sys
o Copy the following files to diskette #2 if you'll be
updating I/O option firmware:
as4x00io.sys
rhreadme.sys
cipca315.sys
dfxaa310.sys
kzpsaa10.sys
Be sure to copy all of the aforementioned files for the
diskette(s) you need. Note that you may choose to omit
certain files from your diskette, but to do so, you must
edit the corresponding AS4X00**.TXT file or files which
point to the various .SYS update images you care about. The
AS4X00**.TXT files tell LFU which binary update images it
should copy off the load device.
Once you've created your diskette(s), insert one or the
other into your AlphaServer 4100's/4000's floppy drive.
2.2.3 Updating Using an ODS2-Formatted Floppy Diskette
Depending upon what you wish to update, you'll need either
one or two 1.44MB floppy diskettes. If you wish to update
console firmware only or I/O option firmware only, you'll
need only a single diskette. However, if you wish to update
both console and I/O firmware, you'll need two separate
diskettes.
If you will be using an ODS2-formatted diskette or
diskettes, use the following OpenVMS command procedure(s)
to create your floppy diskette(s):

2.2 Preparing For The Update
kzpsaa10.sys
rhreadme.sys
rhsrmrom.sys
rharcrom.sys
rhreadme.sys
Make sure the files will be accessible via your target
AlphaServer 4100 system. Also, be sure not to change the
names of any files. Downloaded files require an additional
step for MOP loads; the file attributes must be modified to
a proper VMS fixed-record format. Use the following OpenVMS
command on each downloaded file before using the files for
MOP booting.
$ set file/attr=(rfm:fix,lrl:512,mrs:512,rat:none) *.sys
2.3 Performing The Update
If your machine is currently running an operating system,
issue the appropriate shutdown command to gracefully shut
down your operating system. You may need to use the front-
panel Halt button (depressed, so Halt LED is on) and a
subsequent system reset to halt your machine at the SRM
console.
If running Digital UNIX or OpenVMS Alpha, once halted at
the SRM console, reset the machine and wait for console
to come back up. Firmware updates may not work following
an operating system shutdown without a subsequent system
reset. Always reset the machine following a UNIX/VMS
shutdown if you plan on performing a firmware update. At
the SRM console prompt, issue the LFU command to start the
built-in firmware update utility.
If running Windows NT, either select the "Update AlphaBIOS"
menu item in the Setup menu to run LFU automatically or
select the SRM console (Digital UNIX or OpenVMS operating
system) and then reset your machine to manually start LFU.
If manually started, type LFU at the SRM console prompt
once the machine has halted at the SRM console.
First, LFU will ask you to specify a load device - the
device from which LFU will load the console and/or I/O
option firmware update files.
o If local CD-ROM, answer "CDA0".
o If floppy, answer "DVA0".
o If network, answer "EWA0" if Digital PCI Ethernet or
"FWA0" if Digital PCI FDDI (DEFPA).
LFU will then prompt for a firmware files list file name.
Use the following guide to ensure that you have provided
the appropriate response:
o If local CD-ROM, answer "AS4X00FW".
Firmware Update Instructions 2-5
Firmware Update Instructions
2.3 Performing The Update
o If floppy, answer "AS4X00CP" or "AS4X00IO" depending
upon whether you wish to update only console or only
I/O option firmware. You must have the diskette with the
corresponding files list in your drive. If your console
is currently at revision V1.2 or greater, you can also
specify "AS4X00FW" to request LFU to load files off the
"CP/FW" diskette and then prompt you for the remaining
I/O option update files from the "IO" diskette. LFU will
prompt you to insert the new floppy when appropriate
when "AS4X00FW" is used.
Note: if using two diskettes, after updating off
one floppy, you can perform remaining updates off
diskette #2 by re-invoking LFU via the LFU command at
the utility's UPD> prompt and providing the alternate
firmware files list file name when requested for input.
o If network, answer "AS4X00FW", "AS4X00CP", or "AS4X00IO"
depending upon whether you want all update firmware
(console + I/O option), only console, or only I/O
option, respectively.
A sample session is provided below of an update of SRM from

_________________________________________________________________
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
It is recommended that you read this section in its
entirety prior to using your AlphaServer 4100 machine.
3.1 Memory Tests Can Take a Very Long Time!
Memory is tested by each CPU each time you power on or
reset your machine. These tests can take upwards of several
minutes on very large memory, single-CPU machines. The
XSROM firmware responsible for testing memory prints a
rotating asterisk as part of the operator control panel
(OCP) display during the memory march test (Test 24).
The rotating asterisk stops once testing has completed.
Additionally, beginning with V3.0 SRM console, if both
the CONSOLE environment variable is set to serial and
the MEMORY_TEST environment variable is set to full an
estimated test time will be printed.
________________________ Note ________________________
If running OpenVMS or Digital UNIX, the MEMORY_TEST
environment variable must be set to FULL (default).
PARTIAL and NONE are not supported.
______________________________________________________
3.2 Selecting Which Console Is Loaded and Your Display Device
Your system likely came pre-configured to run a particular
operating system. There are two SRM console environment
variables that play a key role in determining which console
will be the final console loaded on a power-on/reset (SRM
console or AlphaBIOS console) and to which display device
(VT-type terminal or graphics device) the console will
default. These two environment variables (EVs) are the OS_
TYPE and CONSOLE EVs, respectively.
If OS_TYPE is set to "NT", the SRM console will
automatically load and start the AlphaBIOS console from
system flash ROM during power-on/reset. If OS_TYPE is
set to "OpenVMS" or "UNIX", the SRM console will not load
AlphaBIOS. If OS_TYPE is set to "NT", you can depress the
front panel Halt button (LED on) and then reset the machine
to force the SRM console to not load AlphaBIOS. In this
situation, the SRM console will stop at the SRM console
prompt. Not only will it not load AlphaBIOS if OS_TYPE=NT,
but it will also not allow booting until the Halt button
has been restored to the out position.
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine 3-1
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.2 Selecting Which Console Is Loaded and Your Display Device
If CONSOLE is set to "SERIAL", the SRM console will
power-on in serial mode and will print power-up display
information to COM1 (assuming a VT-like device is connected
at the other end). If CONSOLE is set to "GRAPHICS", the
SRM console expects to find a VGA card in PCI0 and will
attempt to print to the VGA monitor after PCI sizing and
configuration has completed.
Note: you will not see any console display output on
your VT or VGA display if CONSOLE is set to "GRAPHICS"
until power-up testing and sizing has completed *and* VGA
initialization has completed. This can take upwards of
several minutes depending upon your system configuration.
With CONSOLE set to "GRAPHICS", you will only see display
output on your operator control panel (OCP) display until
the PCIs have been (and more specifically, the VGA has
been) initialized, at which point you should see output to
console terminal display device (in this case, VGA).
Once console has fully initialized the system, if OS_TYPE
is not set to "NT", the SRM console will allow logins
at either the VT or graphics device, irrespective of
the CONSOLE EV setting. This assumes the SRM console's
TT_ALLOW_LOGIN environment variable is set to "1". For
example, on a machine configured with CONSOLE set to
"GRAPHICS", pressing <Return> or <Enter> at the keyboard of
a connected VT device should return a console prompt at the
VT device (i.e. over COM1). Console will only honor this
login attempt if OS_TYPE is not set "NT" and only after
console has fully initialized the system and attempted to
return the console prompt on the graphics display device.
The same holds true in the reverse situation where CONSOLE
is set to "SERIAL", but the user wishes to log in at a
connected and properly cabled and configured graphics
display device.
3.3 Configuring Your Machine Prior to Booting
There are several SRM console environment variables and
built-in utilities that you may need to use to set up your
system prior to booting the OpenVMS Alpha or Digital UNIX
operating system. Examples include:
o Setting EWn0_MODE and EWn0_PROTOCOLS environment
variables (EVs) for your Ethernet network device.
o Setting PKn0_HostID, PKn0_Fast, PKn0_SoftTerm, and PKn0_
Disconnect EVs to configure your PCI SCSI controllers.
Use the KZPSAn_XXXX EVs for setting up KZPSA parameters.
[The SRM console KZPSA_EDIT command or the ARC-based
KZPSA utilities can also be used for these purposes.]
o Configuring your KFPSA and DSSI subsystem using the SET
HOST -DUP command and/or CDP command.
3-2 Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.3 Configuring Your Machine Prior to Booting
You may also need to run one or more of the following ARC-
based utilities before booting your operating system:
o EISA Configuration Utility (ECU)
o RAID Configuration Utility (RCU)
o KZPSA Configuration Utility (or use the SRM console's
KZPSA*_XXXX environment variables to configure Host ID
and Fast mode)
Refer to the AlphaServer 4100 System Drawer User's Guide
for more details about configuring your machine prior
to booting. The following chapter also provides a brief
overview on running ARC-based utilities.

3.5 Enhancements and New Features in the V4.8-6 SRM Console
The V4.8-6 SRM console differs from the V4.8-5 SRM console
(found on the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9 CD)
in only one way: V4.8-6 adjusts the critical b-cache
initialization settings to fix a problem described in more
detail below.
The following items are supported with V4.8-6 console
firmware:
1. UNIX V4.0B (also V4.0A, 3.2G and V3.2F)
2. VMS V7.1 (also V6.2-1H3)
The V4.8-6 SRM console adds the following new features:
1. Support for the system AlphaServer 4000 with expanded
I/O support (from 8 PCI slots to 16 PCI slots).
2. The V4.8-6 SRM console fixes a hardware problem related
to the 466MHz CPUs. Console versions prior to V4.8-
6 initialize the 466 MHz CPU's b-caches with values
that can result in 630 single bit errors (and possibly
uncorrectable errors) on certain configurations. The
3-4 Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.5 Enhancements and New Features in the V4.8-6 SRM Console
V4.8-6 console adjusts the cache setting to resolve
this problem, with no impact on performance. You must
use V4.8-6 of the SRM console if you are using the
5/466 4-MB CPU. SRM console V4.8-6 supports mixing
of the B3002-AB and B3004-BA CPUs within a system. If
you mix modules, you must configure the system such
that a B3002-AB is the primary CPU. NOTE: Systems
running OpenVMS (V6.2-1H3 or V7.1) require a patch image
(ALPCPU1601_071) to support the B3002 and B3004 in mixed
configurations.
3. The default for the fru_table environment variable has
been changed to ON. Support for FRU Table Version 4.0
support is implemented only in the DECevent Knowledge
Library (.KNL files ) update to DECevent V2.3. If
you are not running with this version of DECevent,
on a system using SRM console V3.0-10 or above, then
you should either update DECevent or set the fru_
table environment variable to OFF. Using earlier
versions of DECevent, with the fru_table set to ON,
can hang or possibly crash the system when reading
an OpenVMS or Digital UNIX system error log that
has a V4.0 FRU table. With fru_table set to ON (the
new default) a V4.0 FRU table entry will be copied
to your Digital UNIX or OpenVMS system error log on
every operating system boot. You can obtain update
files for DECevent from the World Wide Web location:
http://www.service.digital.com/decevent/
4. Support for BOOTP booting (RIS installations) over FDDI
(DEFPA).
5. Support for network booting across subnets.
6. Minor enhancements have been made to OpenVMS and
Digital UNIX PALcode for slight improvement in interrupt
performance.
7. Support has been added for FAT floppy writes from
console.
8. New scripts for saving and restoring NVRAM (used for
AlphaBIOS and SRM environment variable and other
parameters, as well as ECU data) to and from a floppy
diskette. The script names are SAVE_NVRAM and RESTORE_
NVRAM). Please reference Appendix A for more information
on these scripts.
9. A version change to V4.8 was made in order to
synchronize with other AlphaServer platform console
versions which ship on the Alpha Systems Firmware Update
CD.

3.6 Bugs Fixed in V4.8 Console Which Were Present in V3.0
3.6 Bugs Fixed in V4.8 Console Which Were Present in V3.0
V4.8 SRM console fixes the following bugs (in V3.0-10):
1. A fix for proper handling of I/O-detected, single-bit
(CRD) errors observed while running OpenVMS, Digital
UNIX, or the SRM console test command. Previous versions
of PALcode could erroneously report 630 CRD errors as
620 errors and potentially with error frames skewed
by one byte, thereby making analysis with DECevent
difficult.
2. A fix for the problem on systems running OpenVMS where a
machine check 660 or 670 results in the system stopping
at an XDELTA breakpoint and not continuing with a
crash dump. This problem occurs on OpenVMS systems
configured with a VGA adapter in the PCI backplane and
is independent of the setting of the console environment
variable (serial or graphics).
3. A fix for a boot command hang that occurs if the
bootdef_dev environment variable is set to a device and
the device's adapter is swapped with a non-boot adapter-
for example, a KZPSA is swapped with a VGA adapter.
4. A fix for a hang that occurs with the CIPCA PCI-CI
adapter if you type a show device or boot command and
an HSC70 controller is off-line.
5. A fix for a problem with the SRM test command that
occurs with the CIPCA PCI-CI adapter or 8 GB memory
configurations.
6. Support has been added for the handling of SCSI bus
resets in the middle of booting. This change fixes a
hang problem seen with simultaneous boots and crash
dumps in a SCSI cluster with a shared KZPSA bus.
3.7 Bugs Fixed in V5.28 AlphaBIOS Which Were Present in V5.24
1. Support for mixed CPU type: B3002-AB and B3004-BA.
2. Native Mylex driver version V4.03.08 included.
3. Native Qlogic driver version V2.22 included.
4. Display the correct SCSI ID for SCSI devices that
support adapter or controller SCSI ID assigment.
5. SCSI ID removed from SCSIBIOS controlled device
messages.
6. Correctly quantify secondary processors as Ready.

3.8 SRM Console Firmware Bugs and Restrictions
3.8 SRM Console Firmware Bugs and Restrictions
The following are known bugs and restrictions with
AlphaServer 4100 SRM console firmware version V4.8.
1. On AlphaServer 4100 or 4000 systems running OpenVMS
or Digital UNIX, the memory_test environment variable
must be set to FULL (default). PARTIAL and NONE are
not yet supported. A save/exit from the AlphaBIOS CMOS
setup menu can result in changing the shared memory_test
environment variable to PARTIAL or NONE. Because OpenVMS
does not support partial testing, you must reset this
environment variable to FULL before you boot OpenVMS.
Digital UNIX supported partial memory testing prior to
SRM console V3.0-10, but there is a problem with V3.0-10
and above. Until the problem is resolved, Digitial UNIX
customers must set the memory_test environment variable
to FULL prior to booting.
2. VGAs configured as console display devices must be in
PCI0.
3. The system must be reset prior to running LFU from
console. A system reset is not required if you boot
the LFU from the CD-ROM.
4. A minimum S3 V+ VGA BIOS version of 2.16.07 is required
for 1MB boards.
3.9 DE500-AA Fast EtherWORKS Adapter Auto-negotiation
The console supports the DE500-AA Fast EtherWORKS PCI
10/100-TX Adapter. The DE500-AA supports auto-negotiation
which is a mechanism to determine the speed of the Ethernet
and adjust the DE500-AA speed to the fastest compatible
speed of the Ethernet.
_______________________ Caution _______________________
Use Auto-negotiation only when the Ethernet, to
which the DE500-AA is connected, fully supports this
mechanism.
______________________________________________________
Auto-negotiation works from the console in the following
way: If a DE500-AA is connected to an Ethernet which
supports auto-negotiation and is on-line (such that the
Ethernet device on the other end of the wire is running an
operating system, then the DE500-AA line speed will be set
to a negotiated speed of the Ethernet. If the Ethernet does
not support auto-negotiation or the device on the other end
of the Ethernet is off-line (the operating system is not
running), then the line speed of the DE500-AA will default
to 100BaseTX full duplex.
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine 3-7
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.9 DE500-AA Fast EtherWORKS Adapter Auto-negotiation
Auto-negotiation is enabled on the DE500-AA from the
console environment variable ew*0_mode; were * is the
device id. e.g. ewa0_mode. Set ew*0_mode is explained in
the next section.
3.9.1 Set EW*0_Mode Auto-Negotiate
To enable auto-negotiate mode in the DE500-AA do the
following:
________________________ Note ________________________
Only use this mode if your Ethernet environment
supports auto-negotiation. Otherwise set the mode
to Twisted for 10BaseTx or to Fast or FastFD for
100BaseTX half-duplex or full-duplex respectively,
______________________________________________________
P00>>> set ew*0_mode auto-negotiate
It will take several seconds before you see the P00>>> prompt to get the
DE500-AA into auto-negotiate mode.
Warning: Use auto-negotiate ONLY if the DE500-AA is connected to an Ethernet
which supports auto-negotiate. Otherwise the DE500-AA will respond with a link
failure message and then default to 100BaseTX full-duplex. Review the
following examples:
Example-1: Setting to auto-negotiate on a system where
the Ethernet does not support auto-negotiate or there is no response from the
Ethernet, from the console, you see the following:
P00>>> set ewc0_mode auto-negotiate (this takes a few seconds)
ewc0: link failed : Using 100BaseTX full duplex
In the above case change ewc0_mode to Twisted to use the DE500-AA in
a 10BaseTx environment.
Example-2: Setting to auto-negotiate on a system where
the Ethernet does not support auto-negotiate but supports 100BaseTX half
duplex, from the console, you see the following:
P00>>> set ewc0_mode auto-negotiate
ewc0: link failed : Using 100BaseTX full duplex
In the above case change ewc0_mode to FAST to use the DE500-AA in a 100BaseTx
half-duplex environment.
Example-3: Setting to auto-negotiate on a system where the
Ethernet does not support auto-negotiate but supports 100BaseTX full duplex,
from the console, you see the following:
P00>>> set ewc0_mode auto-negotiate (wait a few seconds)
ewc0: link failed : Using 100BaseTX full duplex
In the above case change ewc0_mode to FASTFD to use the DE500-AA in
a 100BaseTx Full Duplex environment.
End of examples.

3.9.2 Behavior Note on Systems with Multiple DE500-AA's
Operating Systems may take longer than average to reboot
when the systems have multiple DE500-AA that are all set
to auto-negotiate mode. This is because of the time it
may take for auto-negotiation mode to stabalize for each
DE500-AA.

3.11 FRU Table Version 4 and DECevent
V4.0 FRU table format is new as of the V3.0-10 console. SRM
consoles prior to V3.0-10 use V2 FRU table format. A new
environment variable, FRU_TABLE, has been implemented as of
the V3.0-10. The default value is set to OFF and should not
be changed unless the system is running with the DECevent
"Knowledge Library" update to DECevent V2.3.
_______________________ Caution _______________________
SRM console V4.8-6 changes the environment variable
FRU_TABLE default to ON. If the system is not running
DECevent V2.3 with the "Knowledge Library" update then
you should either update the DECevent version or set
the environment variable to OFF.
______________________________________________________
DECevent V2.3, in its initial release with UNIX V4.0B and
OpenVMS V7.1 does not support the new FRU Table Version 4
Configuration Entry. Support is available with the DECevent
"Knowledge Library" (.KNL files) update to DECevent
V2.3 kit released in December 1996. The update kit to
DECevent V2.3, for FRU Table Version 4 support, is also
available from the publicly accessible DECevent web site
at: http://www.service.digital.com/decevent/
Using an earlier version of DECevent with the FRU_TABLE set
to ON may hang the system. Using a non-updated DECevent
V2.3 version with FRU_TABLE set to ON will display a
message indicating no support for the V4 FRU table.
The DECevent command "SHOW KNL" can be used to display
the current version of .KNL files (Knowledge Libraries)
installed. The .KNL file versions shipping with the initial
DECevent V2.3 release is KNL023.0 The .KNL file version

Running EISA, RAID, and Other Configuration Utilities
To help configure an AlphaServer 4100 system, various
utilities may need to be run before booting your operating
system. The ECU, RCU, and KZPSA Configuration utilities
are examples - these utilities run on top of the AlphaBIOS
console since they use ARC-based callbacks based on the
Advanced RISC Computing (ARC) Specification developed by
Microsoft.
4.1 Setting Up Your System to Run ARC-based Utilities
To invoke one or more of these utilities, you must first
bring up the AlphaBIOS console. Do so by entering the
ALPHABIOS command at the SRM console prompt or by setting
the SRM console's OS_TYPE environment variable (EV) to "NT"
and then resetting your machine. If you have a graphics
display device installed in your machine, you may wish to
set the CONSOLE EV to "GRAPHICS" before invoking AlphaBIOS
since it and the associated utilities are graphically
oriented. [They do support serial line mode, however. See
Section 4.2 for more details.]
4.2 Using a Serial line Interface to Run ARC-based Utilities
These utilities can be run either in graphics or serial
mode. The SRM console's CONSOLE environment variable
controls which mode AlphaBIOS runs in at the time it is
loaded by the SRM console.
To run AlphaBIOS and ARC-based utilities in serial mode,
CONSOLE must be set SERIAL and the terminal must be a VT320
or greater with the following settings:
o 8-bit character mode.
o '~' key set to send ESC.
Refer to your user documentation (e.g., AlphaServer 4100
System Drawer User's Guide) for details about running
utilities such as ECU, RCU, and other ARC-based utilities.
4.3 Restrictions When Running KZPSA Utilities
You must use V1.4 of the KZPSA Firmware Update Utility
(FWUPDATE.EXE) if you wish to use it rather than LFU to
update your KZPSA firmware. Note: running earlier versions
of the KZPSA FWUPDATE.EXE utility will corrupt the NVRAM on
your KZPSA and disable the module and your system!

4.3 Restrictions When Running KZPSA Utilities
Restrictions also exist if using the KZPSA CNFGDIAG.EXE
utility. For one, you must use version V1.5 or greater on
an AlphaServer 4100 system. The following release notes
apply to V1.5 of the CNFGDIAG.EXE utility:

A.1 Restore NVRAM data to EEROM/TOY from a floppy file.
Restore the system NVRAM data to 8KB EEROM and/or last
50 TOY RAM bytes from a floppy containing the NVRAM save
file(s). By default, if no script argument is specified,
all NVRAM is restored from file ALLNVRAM.SAV.
Syntax
restore_nvram {all,arc,srm,toy}
Arguments
group
Specifies the group of NVRAM data to be restored. One of the following:
o all : All of the 8KB EEROM and 50 bytes of TOY RAM are
restored from file allnvram.sav. This is the default, if
no argument is specified.
o arc : ARC (AlphaBIOS) data in first 6KB of the 8KB EEROM
is restored from file arcnvram.sav.
o srm : SRM console data in last 2KB of the 8KB EEROM is
retored from file srmnvram.sav.
o toy : TOY data in last 50 bytes of 64 bytes in TOY RAM
is retored from file toynvram.sav.
Examples
To restore a previously saved ARC NVRAM image:
>>>restore_nvram arc

11.17 | SRM V4.8-6, ABIOS 5.28 ->readme text | MAY21::SAVAGE | | Fri May 16 1997 11:12 | 170 |
| ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+ AlphaServer 4100/4000 Firmware +
+ README-First !!! +
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1. Please CAREFULLY read this readme file IN ITS ENTIRETY. There are several
issues you should be aware of, including:
--> MEMORY_TEST and FRU_TABLE environment variable (EV) settings; you must
understand the impact of these EVs upon system behavior.
--> An important fix in V4.8-6 for customers running with 466 MHz CPUs.
--> Info about mixed 300 MHz CPU (B3004-BA and B3002-AB) configurations.
Version V4.8-6 was released after the V3.9 FW CD submission date, so is not
available on the V3.9 CD. The V4.8-6 and V4.8-5 consoles are different in
only one way: V4.8-6 adjusts critical b-cache initialization settings to fix
a problem described in more detail below. V4.8-6 must be used on AlphaServer
4100 and 4000 5/466 4MB systems.
2. When updating console firmware, it is recommended that you update both the
SRM and AlphaBIOS consoles at the same time to insure compatibility between
versions.
3. Helpful Hints on using the UPDATE and LIST commands
UPD> update srm* to update the SRM console firmware.
UPD> update alpha* to update the AlphaBIOS console.
UPD> update * to update all firmware in your system.
UPD> update * -all to update all firmware in your system without having
to confirm each update
UPD> list to display adapters in your system that are supported
by the Loadable Firmware Utility [LFU]
UPD> readme to display this readme file you are reading now
4. Latest Firmware Update Revisions
The latest Firmware Update Bootfile "AS4X00_V4_8.EXE" on the Alpha Firmware
CD V3.9, contains V4.8-5 SRM Console, which has the following components:
[ * = CHANGED since V3.0-10 SRM console release (V3.8 FW Update CD) ]
--> SRM console V4.8-5 *
--> XSROM V4.8 *
--> OpenVMS PALcode V1.19-5 *
--> Digital UNIX PALcode V1.21-18 *
--> AlphaBIOS console V5.28-0 *
--> CIPCA FW version A315
--> DEFPA FW version V3.10 *
--> ISP1020 FW version V2.10 (included in SRM console)
--> KZPSA FW version A10
Again, note that V4.8-6 did not make it onto the V3.9 FW Update CD/ROM. It
is or will very soon be available at the following Web site, however:
ftp://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/firmware/interim/as4x00/
5. Firmware Enhancements and New Features (SRM and AlphaBIOS Consoles)
V4.8 SRM console adds the following new features:
--> Support for AlphaServer 4000 with expanded I/O support.
--> Official support for AlphaServer 4100/4000 466 MHz CPUs. Note: V3.0-10
console claimed support for the 466MHz CPUs but qualification of these
CPUs brought to light some power-up/test issues. In addition, V4.8-6
SRM console fixes a HW issue discovered after earlier versions of V4.8
console (V4.8-3, V4.8-5) were shipped. All versions of console prior to
V4.8-6 initialize the 466 MHz CPUs' b-caches with values that can lead
to 630 single-bit cache errors (and possibly uncorrectable errors) on
certain configs. V4.8-6 console adjusts the cache settings to resolve
this problem, and does so with zero performance impact.
--> Support for the B3004-BA (EV56 300 MHz 2MB cache) CPU. The B3002-AB (EV5
300 MHz 2MB cache) and B3004-BA CPUs can be mixed in the same system. If
mixed, you MUST configure the system such that a B3002-AB is the primary
CPU - this is typically CPU0.
--> The FRU_TABLE environment variable default has been changed to ON. FRU
Table Version 4.0 support is only implemented in the DECevent Knowledge
Library (.KNL files ) update to DECevent V2.3. If you are not running
with V3.0-10 consoel or above then you should either update DECevent
(web site for DECevent: http://www.service.digital.com/decevent/) or set
the FRU_TABLE environment variable to OFF. Earlier versions of DECevent
can hang or possibly crash the system when reading an OpenVMS or Digital
UNIX system error log that has a V4 FRU table in it. A FRU_TABLE setting
of ON (now the default) will result in a V4 FRU table entry being copied
to your UNIX/VMS system error log on every operating system boot.
--> Support for BOOTP booting (RIS installs) over FDDI (DEFPA).
--> Support for network booting across subnets.
--> Minor enhancements to OpenVMS and Digital UNIX PALcode for slight
improvement in interrupt performance.
--> Support for FAT floppy writes from console.
--> Scripts for saving and restoring NVRAM (used for AlphaBIOS and SRM
environment variable and other parameters, as well as ECU data) to/from
a floppy diskette (script names are SAVE_NVRAM and RESTORE_NVRAM).
--> Version change to V4.8 to synchronize with other AlphaServer platform
console versions which ship on the Alpha Systems Firmware Update CD.
V4.8 SRM console fixes the following bugs (in V3.0-10):
--> Fix for proper handling of I/O-detected, single-bit (CRD) errors
detected while running OpenVMS, Digital UNIX, or console TEST.
Previous versions of PALcode could erroneously report 630 CRD errors
as 620s; potentially with error frames skewed by one byte, thereby
making DECevent analysis quite difficult.
--> Fix for the problem on systems running OpenVMS where a machine check
660 or 670 results in the system stopping at an XDELTA breakpoint and
not continuing with a crash dump. This problem occurs on OpenVMS
systems configured with a VGA adapter in the PCI backplane and is
independent of the CONSOLE setting (SERIAL or GRAPHICS).
--> Fix for BOOT command hang if BOOTDEF_DEV is set to a device and the
device's adapter gets swapped with a non-boot adapter. For example,
a KZPSA is swapped with a VGA adapter.
--> Fix for CIPCA hang if type a SHOW DEVICE or BOOT command with an HSC70
offline.
--> Fixes for TEST command involving CIPCA or 8 GB memory configurations.
--> Support for handling SCSI bus resets in the middle of booting. Fixes
a hang problem seen with simultaneous boots and crash dumps in a SCSI
cluster with a shared KZPSA bus.
V5.48 AlphaBIOS includes the following changes since AlphaBIOS V5.24:
--> Support for mixed CPU type: B3002-AB and B3004-BA.
--> Native Mylex driver version V4.03.08 included.
--> Native Qlogic driver version V2.22 included.
--> Display the correct SCSI ID for SCSI devices that support adapter
or controller SCSI ID assigment.
--> SCSI ID removed from SCSIBIOS controlled device messages.
--> Correctly quantify secondary processors as Ready.
6. Firmware Anomalies, Restrictions, and Workarounds
--> If using OpenVMS or Digital UNIX, the MEMORY_TEST environment variable
must be set to FULL (default). PARTIAL and NONE are not supported. The
default value is FULL. However, saving/exiting from the AlphaBIOS' CMOS
setup menu can result in the shared MEMORY_TEST environment variable
being changed to PARTIAL. Anything less than FULL is not supported by
OpenVMS. UNIX supported partial memory testing prior to SRM console
version V3.0-10. However, a requested change to the way in which the
SRM builds memory descriptors was implemented in V3.0-10 and beyond,
and this has aggravated a latent bug in all versions of UNIX which can
lead to panics during booting and other unpredictable system behavior.
Until the UNIX issue has been resolved, both OpenVMS and UNIX customers
must insure that MEMORY_TEST is set to FULL prior to booting.
--> VGAs configured as console display devices must be in PCI0.
--> The system must be reset prior to running LFU from console. Booting the
LFU off CD/ROM does not require a system reset.
--> A minimum S3 V+ VGA BIOS version of 2.16.07 is required for 1MB boards
(2.36.07 for 2MB boards).

% DIGITAL INTERNAL USE ONLY
%
% INTRODUCTION:
% This rendition of the Digital logo was prepared by Ned Batchelder using
% Adobe Illustrator and hand manipulation of the resulting PostScript code.
% Photographic masters of the logo were obtained from David Comberg in the
% Graphic Design Group. Additional consultation was provided by Elliot
% Hendrickson, one of the original designers of the logo.
%
% USE:
% This file defines a new PostScript font, called /DigitalLogo. It consists
% of three characters. (d) is the entire Digital logo, (t) is a small
% trademark symbol, and (T) is a large trademark symbol. The font is designed
% so that the argument to scalefont is the height of the logo. There is no
% extra white space around the logo at all. The trademarks are designed to be
% shown right after the logo, and they align themselves. The only correct
% strings to show with this font are (d), (dt), and (dT). There is an entry
% (named GapWidth) in the font dictionary which gives the unscaled width of
% the gap between the blocks. This distance is given because it is used as a
% unit to determine how much space to leave around the logo.
%
% HISTORY:
% The logo was designed in 1957 by Elliot Hendrickson, who was then working
% as an independent designer. He was contracted by DEC to do a brochure, and
% DEC wanted a logo to accompany it. The logo up to then had been the letters
% DEC in blocks the shape of the plug-in cards that DEC had been producing.
% Elliot re-worked the logo, incorporating letters which were hand-drawn for
% the purpose by Arthur Hover(?). The logo has been maintained since then in
% conventional technology, ie, film masters. There was at least one reworking
% of the logo at some point.
%
% The masters I received had a number of interesting features. The boxes were
% not all the same width, and there seemed to be no logic to which boxes were
% wider. The 'g' was the narrowest, and the 'i' and 'l' were second widest.
% Also, the two 'i's were not exactly the same shape. On ten-inch masters,
% (one box to an 8�x11 sheet), the boxes were not rectangles, but were very
% slightly tapered in wierd ways. I assume that the tapering is the result of
% too many reproductions, but the difference in widths may have been
% deliberate at some time. Elliot reports that when he drew it, all boxes
% were the same width. I have retained the different widths in my version,
% since the experts I had at hand did not seem to think I should make them
% uniform.
%
% Please feel free to use this logo, but keep in mind the following:
%
% 1. This code is for INTERNAL USE ONLY.
% 2. I am not entirely happy with the final shapes of the letters, and am
% hoping to improve them. Please allow for future updates to this code.
% 3. Only use this logo within the guidelines of the Corporate Identity
% program. If you use this font precisely as is, you can't get in much
% trouble. Don't take the shapes and do strange things with them.
% In particular, the Identity states that the logo is a one-color logo: The
% letters are actually holes in the blocks, through which the background can
% be seen. Do not modify this code so that the letters are always white.

Firmware Update Information
This chapter provides firmware and utility revision
information, as well as information on where to find
firmware update images and documentation for your
AlphaServer 4100 system.
Firmware updates are performed using the SRM console's
built-in LFU utility. [Bootable LFU images are also
supported.] LFU supports multiple update devices: local
SCSI CD-ROM (CDA0), local floppy (DVA0), and local network
(EWA0). Other devices are supported for the advanced
user. Refer to Chapter 2 and the AlphaServer 4100 System
Drawer User's Guide for more information about LFU and
other console commands, environment variables to set when
performing updates off a network device, and firmware
update procedures and examples.
The SRM and AlphaBIOS consoles, and associated firmware
files such as I/O option firmware, are available via
customer update kits (CD-ROM). Order information for the
customer update kit, as well as a pointer to WWW pages
which can be used to obtain interim firmware releases
of AlphaServer 4100 firmware, is available later in this
chapter.

A World Wide Web site is provided for firmware updates.
Once the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9 CD-ROM becomes
available, update firmware for the AlphaServer 4100 will
be available via this update CD. At that time, a /V3.9
directory will be created on the World Wide Web (see
Section 1.6 for details).
________________________ Note ________________________
Version V4.8-7 of the SRM console is not available
on the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9 CD-ROM. The
V4.8-7 firmware files and complete release notes are
available from the World Wide Web at the following lo-

______________________________________________________
Serial ROM (SROM) ships in a socketed part on each
AlphaServer 4100 CPU. It is reponsible for initializing
and testing enough of the machine to load Extended SROM
(XSROM) from system flash ROM. The latest SROM revision for
all AlphaServer 4100 CPU types/revisions is V2.0. Version
V1.1 SROMs can be used on all CPU types/revisions unless
you will be bypassing the embedded remote console function
and connecting to a high speed modem, in which case, you
will need V2.0 SROMs for alternate (non-9600) COM1 baud
rate support.
XSROM is reponsible for loading the SRM console and
associated PAL code. If SROM determines that the firmware
image it is supposed to load is corrupt (checksum fails),
it attempts to load the system Fail-Safe Loader (FSL) from
flash ROM. The FSL is a simple floppy loader that can be
used to load an SRM console from a floppy diskette. This
loaded console can then be used to run the AlphaServer
4100 update utility (LFU). A kit with the FSL diskette and

The AlphaBIOS console is loaded and started by the SRM
console if the SRM console's OS_TYPE environment variable
is set to "NT" or if the user enters the SRM console
ALPHABIOS command at the SRM console prompt. AlphaBIOS
is a separate, compressed image and is separately updatable
using LFU.
In general, both the SRM and AlphaBIOS consoles should be
updated at the same time since the two images which ship
on the update CD-ROM are typically qualified against one
another.
1.3 PCI I/O Option Firmware Components - Revision Information
You can also flash update firmware on certain PCI I/O
options supported by the AlphaServer 4100 using LFU.

Firmware Update Instructions
The following sections provide instructions for updating
your system firmware.
2.1 Updating Your System Firmware
The SRM console's built-in loadable firmware update utility
(LFU) is used to update your console firmware (SRM and
AlphaBIOS consoles). LFU can also be booted as a monolithic
image off an update (e.g. using the Alpha Firmware Systems
Update CD-ROM).
The LFU utility can also be used to update KZPSA, DEFPA,
and CIPCA firmware. Mylex DAC960 RAID options such as KZPSC
and KZPAC are not supported by LFU. Refer to the Controller
Installation and Standalone Utility User's Guide for your
particular StorageWorks RAID Array subsystem should you
need to update your RAID subsystem's firmware.
LFU supports multiple update devices: local SCSI CD-ROM
(CDA0), local floppy (DVA0), and local network - Ethernet
(EWA0) and FDDI (FWA0). Other load devices are supported
for the advanced user. Refer to the AlphaServer 4100 System
Drawer User's Guide for more information about LFU and
other console commands, environment variables to set
when performing updates off a network device, and update
procedures.
Over time, you may wish to update to newer firmware
versions as features are added, new I/O option support
is added, and bug fixes are made. Updates are typically
issued about once per quarter.
2.2 Preparing For The Update
You will first need to locate the appropriate
firmware update files. For the V4.8-7 files look in
http://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/interim/ for the
/as4x00 subdirectory for the console files you'll need. The
list of files required is provided below.
________________________ Note ________________________
The /options area was not updated. For options files
use the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9 area.
This release notes document supercedes any previous
release notes.
______________________________________________________
Firmware Update Instructions 2-1
Firmware Update Instructions
2.2 Preparing For The Update
The SRM console's SHOW VERSION command can be used to
determine your SRM console version. The AlphaBIOS console's
version can be determined either by starting the AlphaBIOS
console via the ALPHABIOS command or by starting LFU via
the SRM console's LFU command. [You can bypass the update
file load sequence by pressing <RETURN> when LFU asks you
to specify a load device. A subsequent LIST command at the
UPD> prompt will display the current revision of AlphaBIOS
(and SRM) console firmware.]
If you don't have access to the Alpha Systems Firmware
Update CD, you'll need to copy the appropriate firmware
files to a local computer system. If you'll be updating via
floppy, you'll need either a PC with a 1.44MB compatible
floppy drive or an OpenVMS machine with access to a 1.44MB
floppy drive. If you'll be updating via network (local
MOP server), you'll need to copy the appropriate files
to your local MOP server's MOM$LOAD area with appropriate
file protection to allow your AlphaServer 4100 system to
be served by the local MOP server. You will also need to
modify the file attributes of the downloaded files. See
Section 2.2.4 for more details.
Refer to Section 1.6 for pointers to the Digital Web pages
for firmware release and update information.
2.2.1 Updating Using the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9
If you have a copy of the V3.9 (or greater) CD-ROM, simply
insert it into your AlphaServer 4100's/4000's local CD-
ROM drive. To run the update utility, type "LFU" at the
SRM console prompt and answer "CDA0" and "AS4X00FW"; then
perform the updates desired. Alternatively, you can boot
the CD-ROM directly, by typing "BOOT DKA500" (or equivalent
CD-ROM device name). A readme file is provided for your
convenience. If booting the CD directly, the readme is
automatically displayed. If using console's built-in LFU
utility, the readme is only displayed upon typing "README"
at the LFU update prompt (UPD>).
2.2.2 Updating Using a FAT-Formatted Floppy Diskette
Depending upon what you wish to update, you'll need either
one or two 1.44MB floppy diskettes. If you wish to update
console firmware only or I/O option firmware only, you'll
need only a single diskette. However, if you wish to update
both console and I/O firmware, you'll need two separate
diskettes.
Proper transfer type must be used when files are copied via
ftp. Reference Section 1.6.1 for copying files, via ftp,
that are to be used for FAT-format floppy updates.
If you'll be using a FAT-formatted diskette or diskettes,
perform the following steps on your PC:
o Insert a 1.44MB FAT-formatted diskette in your floppy
drive.
2-2 Firmware Update Instructions
Firmware Update Instructions
2.2 Preparing For The Update
o Copy the following files to diskette #1:
as4x00cp.sys
as4x00fw.sys
rhreadme.sys
rhsrmrom.sys
rharcrom.sys
o Copy the following files to diskette #2 if you'll be
updating I/O option firmware:
as4x00io.sys
rhreadme.sys
cipca315.sys
dfxaa310.sys
kzpsaa10.sys
Be sure to copy all of the aforementioned files for the
diskette(s) you need. Note that you may choose to omit
certain files from your diskette, but to do so, you must
edit the corresponding AS4X00**.TXT file or files which
point to the various .SYS update images you care about. The
AS4X00**.TXT files tell LFU which binary update images it
should copy off the load device.
Once you've created your diskette(s), insert one or the
other into your AlphaServer 4100's/4000's floppy drive.
2.2.3 Updating Using an ODS2-Formatted Floppy Diskette
Depending upon what you wish to update, you'll need either
one or two 1.44MB floppy diskettes. If you wish to update
console firmware only or I/O option firmware only, you'll
need only a single diskette. However, if you wish to update
both console and I/O firmware, you'll need two separate
diskettes.
If you will be using an ODS2-formatted diskette or
diskettes, use the following OpenVMS command procedure(s)
to create your floppy diskette(s):

Make sure the files will be accessible via your target
AlphaServer 4100 system. Also, be sure not to change the
names of any files. Downloaded files require an additional
step for MOP loads; the file attributes must be modified to
a proper VMS fixed-record format. Use the following OpenVMS
command on each downloaded file before using the files for
MOP booting.
$ set file/attr=(rfm:fix,lrl:512,mrs:512,rat:none) *.sys
2.3 Performing The Update
If your machine is currently running an operating system,
issue the appropriate shutdown command to gracefully shut
down your operating system. You may need to use the front-
panel Halt button (depressed, so Halt LED is on) and a
subsequent system reset to halt your machine at the SRM
console.
If running Digital UNIX or OpenVMS Alpha, once halted at
the SRM console, reset the machine and wait for console
to come back up. Firmware updates may not work following
an operating system shutdown without a subsequent system
reset. Always reset the machine following a UNIX/VMS
shutdown if you plan on performing a firmware update. At
the SRM console prompt, issue the LFU command to start the
built-in firmware update utility.
If running Windows NT, either select the "Update AlphaBIOS"
menu item in the Setup menu to run LFU automatically or
select the SRM console (Digital UNIX or OpenVMS operating
system) and then reset your machine to manually start LFU.
If manually started, type LFU at the SRM console prompt
once the machine has halted at the SRM console.
First, LFU will ask you to specify a load device - the
device from which LFU will load the console and/or I/O
option firmware update files.
o If local CD-ROM, answer "CDA0".
o If floppy, answer "DVA0".
o If network, answer "EWA0" if Digital PCI Ethernet or
"FWA0" if Digital PCI FDDI (DEFPA).
LFU will then prompt for a firmware files list file name.
Use the following guide to ensure that you have provided
the appropriate response:
o If local CD-ROM, answer "AS4X00FW".
Firmware Update Instructions 2-5
Firmware Update Instructions
2.3 Performing The Update
o If floppy, answer "AS4X00CP" or "AS4X00IO" depending
upon whether you wish to update only console or only
I/O option firmware. You must have the diskette with the
corresponding files list in your drive. If your console
is currently at revision V1.2 or greater, you can also
specify "AS4X00FW" to request LFU to load files off the
"CP/FW" diskette and then prompt you for the remaining
I/O option update files from the "IO" diskette. LFU will
prompt you to insert the new floppy when appropriate
when "AS4X00FW" is used.
Note: if using two diskettes, after updating off
one floppy, you can perform remaining updates off
diskette #2 by re-invoking LFU via the LFU command at
the utility's UPD> prompt and providing the alternate
firmware files list file name when requested for input.
o If network, answer "AS4X00FW", "AS4X00CP", or "AS4X00IO"
depending upon whether you want all update firmware
(console + I/O option), only console, or only I/O
option, respectively.

_________________________________________________________________
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
It is recommended that you read this section in its
entirety prior to using your AlphaServer 4100 machine.
3.1 Memory Tests Can Take a Very Long Time!
Memory is tested by each CPU each time you power on or
reset your machine. These tests can take upwards of several
minutes on very large memory, single-CPU machines. The
XSROM firmware responsible for testing memory prints a
rotating asterisk as part of the operator control panel
(OCP) display during the memory march test (Test 24).
The rotating asterisk stops once testing has completed.
Additionally, beginning with V3.0 SRM console, if both
the CONSOLE environment variable is set to serial and
the MEMORY_TEST environment variable is set to full an
estimated test time will be printed.
________________________ Note ________________________
If running OpenVMS or Digital UNIX, the MEMORY_TEST
environment variable must be set to FULL (default).
PARTIAL and NONE are not supported.
______________________________________________________
3.2 Selecting Which Console Is Loaded and Your Display Device
Your system likely came pre-configured to run a particular
operating system. There are two SRM console environment
variables that play a key role in determining which console
will be the final console loaded on a power-on/reset (SRM
console or AlphaBIOS console) and to which display device
(VT-type terminal or graphics device) the console will
default. These two environment variables (EVs) are the OS_
TYPE and CONSOLE EVs, respectively.
If OS_TYPE is set to "NT", the SRM console will
automatically load and start the AlphaBIOS console from
system flash ROM during power-on/reset. If OS_TYPE is
set to "OpenVMS" or "UNIX", the SRM console will not load
AlphaBIOS. If OS_TYPE is set to "NT", you can depress the
front panel Halt button (LED on) and then reset the machine
to force the SRM console to not load AlphaBIOS. In this
situation, the SRM console will stop at the SRM console
prompt. Not only will it not load AlphaBIOS if OS_TYPE=NT,
but it will also not allow booting until the Halt button
has been restored to the out position.
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine 3-1
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.2 Selecting Which Console Is Loaded and Your Display Device
If CONSOLE is set to "SERIAL", the SRM console will
power-on in serial mode and will print power-up display
information to COM1 (assuming a VT-like device is connected
at the other end). If CONSOLE is set to "GRAPHICS", the
SRM console expects to find a VGA card in PCI0 and will
attempt to print to the VGA monitor after PCI sizing and
configuration has completed.
Note: you will not see any console display output on
your VT or VGA display if CONSOLE is set to "GRAPHICS"
until power-up testing and sizing has completed *and* VGA
initialization has completed. This can take upwards of
several minutes depending upon your system configuration.
With CONSOLE set to "GRAPHICS", you will only see display
output on your operator control panel (OCP) display until
the PCIs have been (and more specifically, the VGA has
been) initialized, at which point you should see output to
console terminal display device (in this case, VGA).
Once console has fully initialized the system, if OS_TYPE
is not set to "NT", the SRM console will allow logins
at either the VT or graphics device, irrespective of
the CONSOLE EV setting. This assumes the SRM console's
TT_ALLOW_LOGIN environment variable is set to "1". For
example, on a machine configured with CONSOLE set to
"GRAPHICS", pressing <Return> or <Enter> at the keyboard of
a connected VT device should return a console prompt at the
VT device (i.e. over COM1). Console will only honor this
login attempt if OS_TYPE is not set "NT" and only after
console has fully initialized the system and attempted to
return the console prompt on the graphics display device.
The same holds true in the reverse situation where CONSOLE
is set to "SERIAL", but the user wishes to log in at a
connected and properly cabled and configured graphics
display device.
3.3 Configuring Your Machine Prior to Booting
There are several SRM console environment variables and
built-in utilities that you may need to use to set up your
system prior to booting the OpenVMS Alpha or Digital UNIX
operating system. Examples include:

3.5 Enhancements and New Features in the V4.8-7 SRM Console
The V4.8-7 SRM console differs from the V4.8-5 SRM console
(found on the Alpha Systems Firmware Update V3.9 CD) by
including new PALcode to correct a problem seen under
environmental failures: power supply, fan and temperature
failures and including the V4.8-6 SRM console code that
adjusts the critical b-cache initialization settings to fix
a problem described in more detail below.
The following items are supported with V4.8-7 console
firmware:
1. UNIX V4.0B (also V4.0A, 3.2G and V3.2F)
2. VMS V7.1 (also V6.2-1H3)
The V4.8-7 SRM console adds the following new features:
1. The V4.8-7 SRM console includes new PALcode, for systems
using OpenVMS and Digital UNIX, to properly restore
register R1 after an environmental failure (power
supply, fan or temperature failure). This problem does
not affect systems running the Windows NT operating
system.
3-4 Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.5 Enhancements and New Features in the V4.8-7 SRM Console
2. Support for the system AlphaServer 4000 with expanded
I/O support (from 8 PCI slots to 16 PCI slots).
3. The V4.8-6 SRM console fixes a hardware problem related
to the 466MHz CPUs. Console versions prior to V4.8-
6 initialize the 466 MHz CPU's b-caches with values
that can result in 630 single bit errors (and possibly
uncorrectable errors) on certain configurations. The
V4.8-6 console adjusts the cache setting to resolve
this problem, with no impact on performance. You must
use V4.8-6 of the SRM console if you are using the
5/466 4-MB CPU. SRM console V4.8-6 supports mixing
of the B3002-AB and B3004-BA CPUs within a system. If
you mix modules, you must configure the system such
that a B3002-AB is the primary CPU. NOTE: Systems
running OpenVMS (V6.2-1H3 or V7.1) require a patch image
(ALPCPU1601_071) to support the B3002 and B3004 in mixed
configurations.
4. The default for the fru_table environment variable has
been changed to ON. Support for FRU Table Version 4.0
support is implemented only in the DECevent Knowledge
Library (.KNL files ) update to DECevent V2.3. If
you are not running with this version of DECevent,
on a system using SRM console V3.0-10 or above, then
you should either update DECevent or set the fru_
table environment variable to OFF. Using earlier
versions of DECevent, with the fru_table set to ON,
can hang or possibly crash the system when reading
an OpenVMS or Digital UNIX system error log that
has a V4.0 FRU table. With fru_table set to ON (the
new default) a V4.0 FRU table entry will be copied
to your Digital UNIX or OpenVMS system error log on
every operating system boot. You can obtain update
files for DECevent from the World Wide Web location:
http://www.service.digital.com/decevent/
5. Support for BOOTP booting (RIS installations) over FDDI
(DEFPA).
6. Support for network booting across subnets.
7. Minor enhancements have been made to OpenVMS and
Digital UNIX PALcode for slight improvement in interrupt
performance.
8. Support has been added for FAT floppy writes from
console.
9. New scripts for saving and restoring NVRAM (used for
AlphaBIOS and SRM environment variable and other
parameters, as well as ECU data) to and from a floppy
diskette. The script names are SAVE_NVRAM and RESTORE_
NVRAM). Please reference Appendix A for more information
on these scripts.

3.5 Enhancements and New Features in the V4.8-7 SRM Console
10. A version change to V4.8 was made in order to
synchronize with other AlphaServer platform console
versions which ship on the Alpha Systems Firmware Update
CD.
3.6 Bugs Fixed in V4.8 Console Which Were Present in V3.0
V4.8 SRM console fixes the following bugs (in V3.0-10):
1. A fix for proper handling of I/O-detected, single-bit
(CRD) errors observed while running OpenVMS, Digital
UNIX, or the SRM console test command. Previous versions
of PALcode could erroneously report 630 CRD errors as
620 errors and potentially with error frames skewed
by one byte, thereby making analysis with DECevent
difficult.
2. A fix for the problem on systems running OpenVMS where a
machine check 660 or 670 results in the system stopping
at an XDELTA breakpoint and not continuing with a
crash dump. This problem occurs on OpenVMS systems
configured with a VGA adapter in the PCI backplane and
is independent of the setting of the console environment
variable (serial or graphics).
3. A fix for a boot command hang that occurs if the
bootdef_dev environment variable is set to a device and
the device's adapter is swapped with a non-boot adapter-
for example, a KZPSA is swapped with a VGA adapter.
4. A fix for a hang that occurs with the CIPCA PCI-CI
adapter if you type a show device or boot command and
an HSC70 controller is off-line.
5. A fix for a problem with the SRM test command that
occurs with the CIPCA PCI-CI adapter or 8 GB memory
configurations.
6. Support has been added for the handling of SCSI bus
resets in the middle of booting. This change fixes a
hang problem seen with simultaneous boots and crash
dumps in a SCSI cluster with a shared KZPSA bus.
3.7 Bugs Fixed in V5.28 AlphaBIOS Which Were Present in V5.24
1. Support for mixed CPU type: B3002-AB and B3004-BA.
2. Native Mylex driver version V4.03.08 included.
3. Native Qlogic driver version V2.22 included.
4. Display the correct SCSI ID for SCSI devices that
support adapter or controller SCSI ID assigment.
5. SCSI ID removed from SCSIBIOS controlled device
messages.
6. Correctly quantify secondary processors as Ready.

3.8 SRM Console Firmware Bugs and Restrictions
3.8 SRM Console Firmware Bugs and Restrictions
The following are known bugs and restrictions with
AlphaServer 4100 SRM console firmware version V4.8.
1. On AlphaServer 4100 or 4000 systems running OpenVMS
or Digital UNIX, the memory_test environment variable
must be set to FULL (default). PARTIAL and NONE are
not yet supported. A save/exit from the AlphaBIOS CMOS
setup menu can result in changing the shared memory_test
environment variable to PARTIAL or NONE. Because OpenVMS
does not support partial testing, you must reset this
environment variable to FULL before you boot OpenVMS.
Digital UNIX supported partial memory testing prior to
SRM console V3.0-10, but there is a problem with V3.0-10
and above. Until the problem is resolved, Digitial UNIX
customers must set the memory_test environment variable
to FULL prior to booting.
2. VGAs configured as console display devices must be in
PCI0.
3. The system must be reset prior to running LFU from
console. A system reset is not required if you boot
the LFU from the CD-ROM.
4. A minimum S3 V+ VGA BIOS version of 2.16.07 is required
for 1MB boards.
3.9 DE500-AA Fast EtherWORKS Adapter Auto-negotiation
The console supports the DE500-AA Fast EtherWORKS PCI
10/100-TX Adapter. The DE500-AA supports auto-negotiation
which is a mechanism to determine the speed of the Ethernet
and adjust the DE500-AA speed to the fastest compatible
speed of the Ethernet.
_______________________ Caution _______________________
Use Auto-negotiation only when the Ethernet, to
which the DE500-AA is connected, fully supports this
mechanism.
______________________________________________________
Auto-negotiation works from the console in the following
way: If a DE500-AA is connected to an Ethernet which
supports auto-negotiation and is on-line (such that the
Ethernet device on the other end of the wire is running an
operating system, then the DE500-AA line speed will be set
to a negotiated speed of the Ethernet. If the Ethernet does
not support auto-negotiation or the device on the other end
of the Ethernet is off-line (the operating system is not
running), then the line speed of the DE500-AA will default
to 100BaseTX full duplex.
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine 3-7
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine
3.9 DE500-AA Fast EtherWORKS Adapter Auto-negotiation
Auto-negotiation is enabled on the DE500-AA from the
console environment variable ew*0_mode; were * is the
device id. e.g. ewa0_mode. Set ew*0_mode is explained in
the next section.
3.9.1 Set EW*0_Mode Auto-Negotiate
To enable auto-negotiate mode in the DE500-AA do the
following:
________________________ Note ________________________
Only use this mode if your Ethernet environment
supports auto-negotiation. Otherwise set the mode
to Twisted for 10BaseTx or to Fast or FastFD for
100BaseTX half-duplex or full-duplex respectively,
______________________________________________________
P00>>> set ew*0_mode auto-negotiate
It will take several seconds before you see the P00>>> prompt to get the
DE500-AA into auto-negotiate mode.
Warning: Use auto-negotiate ONLY if the DE500-AA is connected to an Ethernet
which supports auto-negotiate. Otherwise the DE500-AA will respond with a link
failure message and then default to 100BaseTX full-duplex. Review the
following examples:
Example-1: Setting to auto-negotiate on a system where
the Ethernet does not support auto-negotiate or there is no response from the
Ethernet, from the console, you see the following:
P00>>> set ewc0_mode auto-negotiate (this takes a few seconds)
ewc0: link failed : Using 100BaseTX full duplex
In the above case change ewc0_mode to Twisted to use the DE500-AA in
a 10BaseTx environment.
Example-2: Setting to auto-negotiate on a system where
the Ethernet does not support auto-negotiate but supports 100BaseTX half
duplex, from the console, you see the following:
P00>>> set ewc0_mode auto-negotiate
ewc0: link failed : Using 100BaseTX full duplex
In the above case change ewc0_mode to FAST to use the DE500-AA in a 100BaseTx
half-duplex environment.
Example-3: Setting to auto-negotiate on a system where the
Ethernet does not support auto-negotiate but supports 100BaseTX full duplex,
from the console, you see the following:
P00>>> set ewc0_mode auto-negotiate (wait a few seconds)
ewc0: link failed : Using 100BaseTX full duplex
In the above case change ewc0_mode to FASTFD to use the DE500-AA in
a 100BaseTx Full Duplex environment.
End of examples.

3.9.2 Behavior Note on Systems with Multiple DE500-AA's
Operating Systems may take longer than average to reboot
when the systems have multiple DE500-AA that are all set
to auto-negotiate mode. This is because of the time it
may take for auto-negotiation mode to stabalize for each
DE500-AA.

When installing Digital UNIX from the graphics console, the
screen may scroll past the following instructions to set

3.11 FRU Table Version 4 and DECevent
V4.0 FRU table format is new as of the V3.0-10 console. SRM
consoles prior to V3.0-10 use V2 FRU table format. A new
environment variable, FRU_TABLE, has been implemented as of
the V3.0-10. The default value is set to OFF and should not
be changed unless the system is running with the DECevent
"Knowledge Library" update to DECevent V2.3.
_______________________ Caution _______________________
SRM console V4.8-6 changes the environment variable
FRU_TABLE default to ON. If the system is not running
DECevent V2.3 with the "Knowledge Library" update then
you should either update the DECevent version or set
the environment variable to OFF.
______________________________________________________
DECevent V2.3, in its initial release with UNIX V4.0B and
OpenVMS V7.1 does not support the new FRU Table Version 4
Configuration Entry. Support is available with the DECevent
"Knowledge Library" (.KNL files) update to DECevent
V2.3 kit released in December 1996. The update kit to
DECevent V2.3, for FRU Table Version 4 support, is also
available from the publicly accessible DECevent web site
at: http://www.service.digital.com/decevent/
Using an earlier version of DECevent with the FRU_TABLE set
to ON may hang the system. Using a non-updated DECevent
V2.3 version with FRU_TABLE set to ON will display a
message indicating no support for the V4 FRU table.
The DECevent command "SHOW KNL" can be used to display
the current version of .KNL files (Knowledge Libraries)
installed. The .KNL file versions shipping with the initial
DECevent V2.3 release is KNL023.0 The .KNL file version
which will ship with the FRU Table Version 4 update to the
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine 3-9
Things You Should Know the First Time You Power On Your Machine

DECevent V2.3 kit will be KNL023.1 or later. If the .KNL
file version is not KNL023.1 or greater, when executing a
DECevent V2.3 "Show KNL" command, you do not have FRU Table
Version 4 support in your installed DECevent V2.3 and the
FRU_TABLE setting must be kept at the default (OFF).

Running EISA, RAID, and Other Configuration Utilities
To help configure an AlphaServer 4100 system, various
utilities may need to be run before booting your operating
system. The ECU, RCU, and KZPSA Configuration utilities
are examples - these utilities run on top of the AlphaBIOS
console since they use ARC-based callbacks based on the
Advanced RISC Computing (ARC) Specification developed by
Microsoft.
4.1 Setting Up Your System to Run ARC-based Utilities
To invoke one or more of these utilities, you must first
bring up the AlphaBIOS console. Do so by entering the
ALPHABIOS command at the SRM console prompt or by setting
the SRM console's OS_TYPE environment variable (EV) to "NT"
and then resetting your machine. If you have a graphics
display device installed in your machine, you may wish to
set the CONSOLE EV to "GRAPHICS" before invoking AlphaBIOS
since it and the associated utilities are graphically
oriented. [They do support serial line mode, however. See
Section 4.2 for more details.]
4.2 Using a Serial line Interface to Run ARC-based Utilities
These utilities can be run either in graphics or serial
mode. The SRM console's CONSOLE environment variable
controls which mode AlphaBIOS runs in at the time it is
loaded by the SRM console.
To run AlphaBIOS and ARC-based utilities in serial mode,
CONSOLE must be set SERIAL and the terminal must be a VT320
or greater with the following settings:
o 8-bit character mode.
o '~' key set to send ESC.
Refer to your user documentation (e.g., AlphaServer 4100
System Drawer User's Guide) for details about running
utilities such as ECU, RCU, and other ARC-based utilities.
4.3 Restrictions When Running KZPSA Utilities
You must use V1.4 of the KZPSA Firmware Update Utility
(FWUPDATE.EXE) if you wish to use it rather than LFU to
update your KZPSA firmware. Note: running earlier versions
of the KZPSA FWUPDATE.EXE utility will corrupt the NVRAM on
your KZPSA and disable the module and your system!

Running EISA, RAID, and Other Configuration Utilities
4.3 Restrictions When Running KZPSA Utilities
Restrictions also exist if using the KZPSA CNFGDIAG.EXE
utility. For one, you must use version V1.5 or greater on
an AlphaServer 4100 system. The following release notes
apply to V1.5 of the CNFGDIAG.EXE utility:

11.20 | SRM V4.8-7, ABIOS 5.28-> readme text | MAY21::SAVAGE | | Fri May 16 1997 11:18 | 140 |
| ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+ AlphaServer 4100/4000 Firmware +
+ README-First !!! +
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1. Please CAREFULLY read this readme file IN ITS ENTIRETY. There are several
issues you should be aware of, including:
--> New PALcode in V4.8-7.
--> MEMORY_TEST and FRU_TABLE environment variable (EV) settings; you must
understand the impact of these EVs upon system behavior.
--> Info about mixed 300 MHz CPU (B3004-BA and B3002-AB) configurations.
V4.8-7 is an interim release, prior to the next Alpha Systems Firmware
Update CD/ROM, to correct a PALcode problem exhibited under environmental
failures: power supply, fan and temperature failures. The V4.8-7 code
does include the previous interim release console (V4.8-6) changes.
2. When updating console firmware, it is recommended that you update both the
SRM and AlphaBIOS consoles at the same time to insure compatibility between
versions.
3. Helpful Hints on using the UPDATE and LIST commands
UPD> update srm* to update the SRM console firmware.
UPD> update alpha* to update the AlphaBIOS console.
UPD> update * to update all firmware in your system.
UPD> update * -all to update all firmware in your system without having
to confirm each update
UPD> list to display adapters in your system that are supported
by the Loadable Firmware Utility [LFU]
UPD> readme to display this readme file you are reading now
4. Latest Firmware Update Revisions
The following components are included in the V4.8-7 SRM console interim
release:
[ * = CHANGED since V4.8-6 SRM console interim release]
--> SRM console V4.8-7 *
--> XSROM V4.8
--> OpenVMS PALcode V1.19-8 *
--> Digital UNIX PALcode V1.21-19 *
--> AlphaBIOS console V5.28-0
--> ISP1020 FW version V2.10 (included in SRM console)
5. Firmware Enhancements and New Features (SRM and AlphaBIOS Consoles)
V4.8 SRM console adds the following new features:
--> Correction to PALcode to properly restore register R1 after an
environmental failure (i.e. power supply, fan or temperature failure).
--> Support for AlphaServer 4000 with expanded I/O support.
--> Official support for AlphaServer 4100/4000 466 MHz CPUs. Note: V3.0-10
console claimed support for the 466MHz CPUs but qualification of these
CPUs brought to light some power-up/test issues. In addition, V4.8-6
SRM console fixes a HW issue discovered after earlier versions of V4.8
console (V4.8-3, V4.8-5) were shipped. All versions of console prior to
V4.8-6 initialize the 466 MHz CPUs' b-caches with values that can lead
to 630 single-bit cache errors (and possibly uncorrectable errors) on
certain configs. V4.8-6 console adjusts the cache settings to resolve
this problem, and does so with zero performance impact.
--> Support for the B3004-BA (EV56 300 MHz 2MB cache) CPU. The B3002-AB (EV5
300 MHz 2MB cache) and B3004-BA CPUs can be mixed in the same system. If
mixed, you MUST configure the system such that a B3002-AB is the primary
CPU - this is typically CPU0.
--> The FRU_TABLE environment variable default has been changed to ON. FRU
Table Version 4.0 support is only implemented in the DECevent Knowledge
Library (.KNL files ) update to DECevent V2.3. If you are not running
with V3.0-10 console or above then you should either update DECevent
(web site for DECevent: http://www.service.digital.com/decevent/) or set
the FRU_TABLE environment variable to OFF. Earlier versions of DECevent
can hang or possibly crash the system when reading an OpenVMS or Digital
UNIX system error log that has a V4 FRU table in it. A FRU_TABLE setting
of ON (now the default) will result in a V4 FRU table entry being copied
to your UNIX/VMS system error log on every operating system boot.
--> Support for BOOTP booting (RIS installs) over FDDI (DEFPA).
--> Support for network booting across subnets.
--> Minor enhancements to OpenVMS and Digital UNIX PALcode for slight
improvement in interrupt performance.
--> Support for FAT floppy writes from console.
--> Scripts for saving and restoring NVRAM (used for AlphaBIOS and SRM
environment variable and other parameters, as well as ECU data) to/from
a floppy diskette (script names are SAVE_NVRAM and RESTORE_NVRAM).
--> Version change to V4.8 to synchronize with other AlphaServer platform
console versions which ship on the Alpha Systems Firmware Update CD.
V4.8 SRM console fixes the following bugs (in V3.0-10):
--> Fix for proper handling of I/O-detected, single-bit (CRD) errors
detected while running OpenVMS, Digital UNIX, or console TEST.
Previous versions of PALcode could erroneously report 630 CRD errors
as 620s; potentially with error frames skewed by one byte, thereby
making DECevent analysis quite difficult.
--> Fix for the problem on systems running OpenVMS where a machine check
660 or 670 results in the system stopping at an XDELTA breakpoint and
not continuing with a crash dump. This problem occurs on OpenVMS
systems configured with a VGA adapter in the PCI backplane and is
independent of the CONSOLE setting (SERIAL or GRAPHICS).
--> Fix for BOOT command hang if BOOTDEF_DEV is set to a device and the
device's adapter gets swapped with a non-boot adapter. For example,
a KZPSA is swapped with a VGA adapter.
--> Fix for CIPCA hang if type a SHOW DEVICE or BOOT command with an HSC70
offline.
--> Fixes for TEST command involving CIPCA or 8 GB memory configurations.
--> Support for handling SCSI bus resets in the middle of booting. Fixes
a hang problem seen with simultaneous boots and crash dumps in a SCSI
cluster with a shared KZPSA bus.
V5.28 AlphaBIOS includes the following changes since AlphaBIOS V5.24:
--> Support for mixed CPU type: B3002-AB and B3004-BA.
--> Native Mylex driver version V4.03.08 included.
--> Native Qlogic driver version V2.22 included.
--> Display the correct SCSI ID for SCSI devices that support adapter
or controller SCSI ID assigment.
--> SCSI ID removed from SCSIBIOS controlled device messages.
--> Correctly quantify secondary processors as Ready.
6. Firmware Anomalies, Restrictions, and Workarounds
--> If using OpenVMS or Digital UNIX, the MEMORY_TEST environment variable
must be set to FULL (default). PARTIAL and NONE are not supported. The
default value is FULL. However, saving/exiting from the AlphaBIOS' CMOS
setup menu can result in the shared MEMORY_TEST environment variable
being changed to PARTIAL. Anything less than FULL is not supported by
OpenVMS. UNIX supported partial memory testing prior to SRM console
version V3.0-10. However, a requested change to the way in which the
SRM builds memory descriptors was implemented in V3.0-10 and beyond,
and this has aggravated a latent bug in all versions of UNIX which can
lead to panics during booting and other unpredictable system behavior.
Until the UNIX issue has been resolved, both OpenVMS and UNIX customers
must insure that MEMORY_TEST is set to FULL prior to booting.
--> VGAs configured as console display devices must be in PCI0.
--> The system must be reset prior to running LFU from console. Booting the
LFU off CD/ROM does not require a system reset.
--> A minimum S3 V+ VGA BIOS version of 2.16.07 is required for 1MB boards
(2.36.07 for 2MB boards).
