Updating Adapter Firmware; Updating Firmware For A Single Adapter - Emulex ProLiant BL620c - G7 Server User Manual

Updating Adapter Firmware

The OneCommand Manager application enables you to update firmware for a single adapter or
simultaneously for multiple adapters.

Updating Firmware for a Single Adapter

Using the Maintenance or Firmware tab, you can update firmware on local and remote adapters. The
firmware file must be downloaded from the Emulex Web site and extracted to a local drive before you
can perform this procedure. (Not available in read-only mode.)
• The Emulex driver must be installed.
• The OneCommand Manager application must be installed.
• The firmware zip file must be downloaded from the Emulex Web site, unzipped and extracted to
a folder on a local drive.
• If the adapter is already connected to a boot device, the system must be in a state in which this
type of maintenance can be performed:
• I/O activity on the bus has been stopped.
• Cluster software, or any other software that relies on the adapter to be available, is
stopped or paused.
Note: For OEM branded adapters, see the OEM's Web site or contact the OEM's customer
service department or technical support department for the firmware files.
Note: You cannot update firmware with the OneCommand Manager application on a Sun-
branded adapter.

2. In the discovery-tree, click the adapter port whose firmware you want to update.
3. Select the Maintenance or Firmware tab and click Update Firmware. If the warning screen
appears, click Yes.
