EBSU Utility
The EFI-based Setup Utility (EBSU) provides an easy-to-use interface for flashing firmware,
partitioning the hard disk, installing diagnostic tools, configuring storage controllers, and running
other EFI utilities.
NOTE:
You can use EBSU to update firmware for many different devices in the system. Smart
Array P600 is shown as an example.
To update the Smart Array firmware:
1.
Power on the server. The server boots to EFI. The EFI Boot Manager may be used from the
enhanced interface (grey background) or the legacy interface (black background).
2.
Load the Smart Setup media into the server DVD drive.
3.
From the EFI Boot Menu, select
Internal Bootable DVD
and press
Enter
. EBSU starts and
displays the Welcome screen.
