To
update
the
adapter
BIOS
code
when
the
adapter
is
installed
in
the
server
with
an
Intel
32-Bit
processor
(IA-32),
an
Intel
Extended
Memory
64-Bit
Technology
(EM64T)
processor,
or
Advanced
Micro
Devices
64-Bit
(AMD-64)
architecture
only,
you
can
use
the
BIOS
Update
Utility
on
the
Support
CD
that
comes
with
the
adapter;
or
you
can
create
and
use
a
BIOS
Update
Utility
diskette.
When
the
adapter
is
installed
in
a
server
with
an
Intel
64-Bit
processor
(IA-64),
see
the
README
in
the
PCI-X
HBA
EFI
driver
package,
for
instructions
about
how
to
load
the
EFI
driver
(instead
of
BIOS
code)
and
update
the
NVRAM
settings
of
the
adapter.
Notes:
1.
The
recommended
method
of
updating
the
BIOS
and
the
adapter
NVRAM
settings
is
to
use
the
QLogic
SANsurfer
Pro
Utility
software.
2.
For
the
dual
port
version
of
the
FC
4Gbps
PCI-X
Adapter,
there
is
only
one
flash
BIOS
image
for
both
ports;
however,
each
port
will
have
its
own
NVRAM
setting.
