nodes. Older firmware versions cannot recognize the new CPUs and this results in a non-bootable server.
Ensure that the entire Cisco S3260 system with M3 server nodes is running Cisco IMC 2.0(7) or 2.0(9)

firmware before you begin the upgrade.
If the system is running an earlier version, download and run the S3260 Host Upgrade Utility (HUU) for
release 2.0(7) or 2.0(9). Use the Host Upgrade Utility User Guide for release 2.0(7) or 2.0(9) for
instructions on downloading and using the utility:
Use the S3260 HUU for 2.0(13) to upgrade the entire system to Cisco IMC release 2.0(13).
Step 2
Boot HUU on server node 1 to upgrade the firmware for the SIOC 1 adapter; boot HUU on server node 2
to upgrade the firmware in SIOC 2.
Note
Note
Verify that all components were upgraded to Cisco IMC 2.0(13).
Step 3
Check the firmware versions for the CMC, BMC, BIOS, SAS expander, and both SIOC adapters.
Shut down and remove power from the entire system. You must disconnect all power cords to completely

remove power.
Remove the existing M3 server nodes and replace them with new M4 server nodes.
Step 5
See
Replace the M3 server nodes with M4 server nodes.
Reconnect cables and power cords.
Boot the system and set CMC and BMC to factory defaults.
Configure IP addresses and network settings.
Perform drive zoning for hard drives.
To upgrade firmware on a SIOC adapter, you must boot HUU on the server node that controls
that SIOC. Boot HUU on server node 1 to upgrade the firmware for the SIOC 1 adapter; boot
HUU on server node 2 to upgrade the firmware in SIOC 2.
Use the 2.0(13) HUU from the S3260 downloads page, not the C3160 downloads page.
