11.6 Firmware Updates
The PRIMEQUEST 2000 series server is configured with BIOS, BMC, and MMB firmware.
Each firmware is managed as a total version integrating different versions.
The firmware is updated from the MMB in batch (applying to all the firmware at all locations within the system).
For details on firmware updates, see 1.6.1 [Firmware Update] menu in the PRIMEQUEST 2000 Series Tool
Reference (C122-E177EN).

11.6.1 Notes on updating firmware

If the MMB or SB fails, perform maintenance on it before updating the firmware. Do not update the firmware
in a configuration containing a faulty MMB or SB.
Firmware update can be performed regardless of power status of the partition.
If the partition is not power off, new firmware is applied after power off of the partition.
Note
If the firmware update fails, update the firmware again by 'Firmware Update' menu of MMB Web-UI.
