Precautions
Download the latest driver from the Hitachi web site.
Back up the firmware before updating the firmware.
When updating FLASH-ROM, do not close the working window, terminate the
command forcibly, turn the power off or reboot the system. There operation
might damage FLASH-ROM and may lead the failure of the Hitachi Gigabit
Fibre Channel Adapter.
To update, back up or restore the FLASH-ROM usually requires 5 to 10
minutes. However over 60 minutes may be required depending on your
server configuration. If your system does not complete these operation over
the 10 minutes, refer to the section 'How to shorten the firmware update
process in 'HITACHI Gigabit Fibre Channel Adapter USER'S GUIDE
(Windows Driver Edition)'
When all of the Gigabit Fibre Channel Adapter, the driver and the firmware do
not support the firmware Online-update feature, you need to power off and
power on to make the updated firmware work on the Gigabit Fibre Channel
Adapter. Refer to HITACHI Gigabit Fibre Channel Adapter USER'S GUIDE
(Windows Driver Edition) or HITACHI Gigabit Fibre Channel Adapter USER'S
GUIDE (Linux/VMware Driver Edition) for details.
For the supported version of the driver and firmware for updating FLASH-
ROM from the guest of LPAR manager, refer to HITACHI Gigabit Fibre
Channel Adapter USER'S GUIDE (Support Matrix Edition) for details.
