NOTE When perfoming a new install or an update of the NetRAID-1M/2M software, it is critical to
install/update all of the software components (firmware, drivers, utilities, monitor service) to
this newest release. The NetRAID-1M/2M may not function correctly if there is a mix of old and
new releases of installed software components.
A. Updating NetRAID firmware on other NetRAID controllers installed in the same HP server
(New Install or Update)
All NetRAID controllers, including older controllers, that are installed in the same HP server as the HP NetRAID-
1M/2M should be updated to the newest firmware version to insure proper operation. One issue that can occur if an
update is not performed to older cards is that NetRAID Express Tools may not detect the newer NetRAID controllers.
If installing or updating a NetRAID-1M/2M in the same server as other NetRAID controllers, follow these steps:
1. There are two ways to determine which version of NetRAID firmware is installed:
During bootup: Determine which version of NetRAID firmware is installed by checking as it is displayed
on the monitor.
After bootup: The versions can be checked from NetRAID Assistant or NetRAID Config. Using
NetRAID Assistant, go to the Adapter menu and select Properties to view the firmware version, or, using
NetRAID Config, go to the Adpater menu and select View/Update Paramters to view the firmware
version.
If the installed version does not match the version in the table below, proceed to steps 2 and/or 3. If the installed
version does match, no firmware updates are needed.
