Corey,
I am not sure if the issue you are having is addressed, but the V6.3CS
(Control Station) release is available for all VRTX based control
processors. V6.3CS is actually a set of CP diskette images that include the
latest QF offerings that have been bundled together and labeled as a
comprehensive station update release. You just get diskettes.
A Pre-install disk is necessary for any station host AW/AP (new romload
server?) which is handled as a "re-install of a selected package" through
the AW_Install utility. A reboot is of the host is required after this
step. Any new control station image type is loaded the same way and of
course would require a reboot of that station.
The 6.3CS CP60 supercedes any other QF for this station type.

Subject: [foxboro] FBM ROM revision unavailable on CP60/100-series FBMs
I suppose I should call TAC about this, but it doesn't really affect our
process, and I took the chance that someone here already had this problem
and knows a workaround.
We recently upgraded 4 CP30s to CP60s with FBI10Es, retaining our existing
100-series I/O. After we did the upgrade, we are unable to consistently
see the ROM revision levels on the FBMs using either frev or Sys Mgmt. One
of the CP60s is fine; all FBMs show ROM revision levels. Two of the CP60s
show revision levels on some, but not all, of the FBMs. The fourth CP60
shows no revision levels.
I have rebooted the host AW, to no avail. System software version is 6.3,
as are the CP images. The problem doesn't seem to be limited to any
particular FBM type; we have 01s, 04s, 07s, and 09s.
Anyone had this happen to them?
