The firmware upgrade process on the Sun M series (M3000, M4000, M5000) is pretty straightforward.
First, we want to make sure the XSCF is on the network and that it can communicate with the server where your firmware resides.
In my case:
XSCF> setnetwork xscf#0-lan#0 -m 255.255.254.0 172.16.2.222
XSCF> setnetwork -c up xscf#0-lan#0
XSCF> setroute -c add -n 172.16.2.0 -m 255.255.254.0 -g 172.16.2.1 xscf#0-lan#0
XSCF> sethostname xscf#0 m3000
XSCF> sethostname -d company.com
XSCF> setnameserver 172.16.2.2
XSCF> applynetwork
The following network settings will be applied:
xscf#0 hostname :m3000
DNS domain name :company.com
nameserver :172.16.2.2
interface :xscf#0-lan#0
status :up
IP address :172.16.2.222
netmask :255.255.254.0
route :-n 172.16.2.0 -m 255.255.254.0 -g 172.16.2.1
interface :xscf#0-lan#1
status :down
IP address :
netmask :
route :
Continue? [y|n] :y
Please reset the XSCF by rebootxscf to apply the network settings.
Please confirm that the settings have been applied by executing
showhostname, shownetwork, showroute and shownameserver after rebooting
the XSCF.
XSCF> rebootxscf
The XSCF will be reset. Continue? [y|n] :y
XSCF> execute S10ioxoff -- complete
Once the XSCF is on the nework you can begin the upgrade:
XSCF> getflashimage -l

XSCF is rebooting to update the reserve bank
XSCF> execute S10ioxoff -- complete

Please note that if you are running firmware 1092 you might run into the following error while setting up the network connection:
XSCF> setnetwork xscf#0-lan#0 -m 255.255.254.0 172.16.2.222
An internal error has occurred. Please contact your system administrator.
This can be resolved by configuring DSCP first:
setdscp -i 172.16.2.0 -m 255.255.254.0
SPARC Enterprise systems can be upgraded with either Sun or Fujitsu firmware.
