Compaq ProLiant 800 Servers Maintenance and Service Guide
ROMPaq
Using flash ROM in Compaq servers allows the firmware (BIOS) to be upgraded with system or
option ROMPaq utilities. To upgrade the ROM:
■
Run the ROMPaq utility from the system partition, or
■
Insert a ROMPaq diskette into drive A and cold boot the system.
The ROMPaq utility then checks the system and provides a choice (if more than one exists) of
ROM revisions to which the system can be upgraded. This procedure is the same for both system
and option ROMPaq utilities.
CAUTION:
Do not turn the power off during a firmware upgrade. A loss of power
during upgrade may corrupt the firmware and prevent the system from booting.
