BMC firmware
This update is in the form of a bootable diskette. If you have the RSA II
configured and connected to your network, you can use the Remote Console
feature with a remote diskette and boot each node from the diagnostics diskette.
On x3950 M2 multinode complex, if you perform the update from the primary
node, then all other nodes are automatically updated as shown in Example 5-2.
