Sun Fire V40z server:

java -jar /export/home/v40z/update_server/V2.2.0.6/updateServer.jar -f /export/home/v40z/sw_images/sp/spbase/V2.2.0.18/install.image -p 50000

sp update flash all -i <ip_address_solaris_machine> -p 50000

sp update flash all -i <ip_address_linux_machine> -p 50000

Using port 1234 will give this error message:

Error. Port out of range...please select a valid port (49152 - 65535).
