Updating the firmware

To update LO100 firmware, use the ROMPaq utility. ROMPaq downloads are available on the HP
website (

http://www.hp.com/support

). For more information about using the ROMPaq utility, see the HP

website (

http://www.hp.com/servers/manage

).

NOTE:

LO100 does not support ROMPaq flashing or flashing LO100 from a virtual floppy.

NOTE:

Firmware upgrade packages for ProLiant ML150 G2 servers contain firmware images

for LO100 standard and advanced functionality. When updating the firmware, only the active

LO100 device is flashed. If an HP Lights-Out 100c Remote Management Card is installed in

the system when flashing the firmware, only the HP Lights-Out 100c Remote Management Card

firmware is updated. If an HP Lights-Out 100c Remote Management Card is not installed, only
the standard (basic) LO100 functionality is updated.

After the ROMPaq utility flashes the selected device, cycle power manually to reboot the operating

system.

Updating the firmware remotely

If you want to update the LO100 firmware remotely, you can use the

load

command. The firmware file

must be an uncompressed firmware image file which you can create using the DOS ROMPAQ utility
found on the Lights-Out 100 Firmware Upgrade Diskette Utility, available for download from the HP

website (

http://www.hp.com/servers/lights-out

).

To create an uncompressed image file, enter the following command at the DOS prompt:

ROMPAQ /D <infile> <outfile>

where <infile> is the ROMPAQ firmware image file and <outfile> is the file name for the
uncompressed binary image file. For example:
