LSI Firmware, Service Processor, and BIOS Issues 17
BIOS Upgrades Fail When Upgrading SP
Firmware Older Than Version 6169 (6324746)
If you attempt to upgrade the SP firmware and BIOS on a pre-release server that still
has an SP firmware version older than version 6169, FRU data will be corrupted.
This problem has been corrected in servers shipping at the time of release (with
BIOS version 6464).
See the procedures in “Upgrading the ILOM SP Firmware From Version 6169 to 6464
Causes SP Configuration To Be Lost” on page 17 for methods of determining the
firmware version.
Workaround
If you were a Beta or Early Access customer with a system that has SP firmware
older than version 6169, you must return the graphics redirect and service processor
(GRASP) board to the factory for reprogramming. Contact your Sun Service
representative for assistance.
Upgrading the ILOM SP Firmware From Version
6169 to 6464 Causes SP Configuration To Be Lost
Early access systems might have shipped with ILOM SP firmware version 6169. The
production release firmware version is 6464.
When you upgrade the firmware from version 6169 to 6464, the SP configuration is
lost and must be reconfigured. This includes anything that has been set up on the SP,
such as:
■
Changes to the default password (
changeme
) for the
root
userid
■
Any users that have been added
■
Any configuration of SNMP, alerts, LDAP, NTP, or network settings (for example,
a static IP address).
You can determine the ILOM SP firmware build version on your server by using the
ILOM command language interface (CLI) or the ILOM Web GUI. You can access the
CLI via the management Ethernet or the serial port on the back of the server.
For alternate methods of determining the firmware version see:
■
“Determining the Firmware Version Using the CLI Through the Management
Ethernet Port” on page 18
