In this example, the physical disk (1I:1:9 or 0x5000c5000030b0c5) firmware is updated from
HPD3 to HPD4.
NOTE: Repeat this procedure for each physical disk where you want to update the firmware.

Checking and updating SAS storage enclosure firmware online

To confirm and update the firmware version of SAS storage enclosure attached to the Smart Array
controller, use the sautil command.
To run the sautil command, you must log in as a superuser.
Before running the sautil command to confirm or update SAS storage enclosure firmware, you
must know the device file name for the Smart Array controller and the physical drive ID for the SAS
storage enclosure (SES device) attached to the Smart Array controller.

Determining the Smart Array controller device file

To determine the device file name for the Smart Array controller, use the ioscan -kfnd ciss
command. For example:
# ioscan -kfnd ciss
Class I H/W Path
==========================================================================
ext_bus 3 0/6/0/0/0/0/1/0/0/0
In this example, /dev/ciss3 is the device file for the Smart Array controller.

Determining the physical drive ID and firmware version for SAS storage enclosures

To determine the physical drive ID of the SAS storage enclosures (SES devices), use the sautil
<device_file> command (extensive output), or the sautil <device_file> -s command
(shortened output).
To display an abbreviated list of information for the Smart Array Controller and all connected
devices, enter sautil <device_file> -s.
The SAS/SATA DEVICE SUMMARY lists the physical drive ID for each disk device and SES device.
It can be represented as Connector:Enclosure:Bay, such as: 1E:1:0 or WWID, such as:
0x500000e010f16432. The command output also shows the firmware version installed on each
SES device. For example:
# sautil /dev/ciss3
