To Upgrade the Firmware Images
1. If your current firmware is not the latest X4600 version available, use your current
ILOM to flash the latest X4600 ILOM.
2. With the latest X4600 ILOM installed, use it to flash the latest X4600 M2 ILOM.
3. If your target firmware is not the latest version, downgrade your ILOM to the
target.
4. Flash the LSI HBA BIOS from the same software release as the ILOM.
In each of steps 1 through 3, you will also be flashing a new system BIOS, since
the two ILOM and BIOS are provided in a single image file.
Note –
You must end the upgrade process with ILOM, system BIOS, and LSI HBA
BIOS all from the same software release. Firmwares from different software releases
may not have been tested together, and systems using them are not supported.
As you plan the BIOS, you will find a worksheet similar to the one in
useful.
Note –
System BIOS and LSI HBA BIOS versions are not important for every step.
During much of the upgrade process, only the service processor will be active; the
rest of the system will be inactive.
The firmware version numbers are documented in the
Software Release Notes
or
Product Notes
for the two products.
