5.15 Updating Firmware

Typically, you update system firmware whenever the operating system
is updated. You might also need to update firmware if you add I/O
device controllers and adapters or if enhancements are made to the
firmware. Firmware is updated from a Loadable Firmware Update
utility (LFU). The LFU banner is shown in Figure 5–19.
