multiple cards, refer to the HP Server Remote Management
Card online help.
1. From the HP Server Remote Management Card software interface, click
the Configuration tab.
2. Then click the Card Info button.
3. In the Card Maintenance section, fill in the IP address of the TFTP server
and the filename of the firmware. The filename you enter should include a
relative path from the base directory.
4. Ensure the TFTP server is running.
5. To start the firmware update, click Update.
For example, if the TFTP server used \tftp\public as its root and the firmware
image file is named
\tftp\public\hp\fw\ttrc\us\ttrc_rom.bin
you would enter the file name as:
hp\fw\ttrc\us\ttrc_rom.bin
An update can also be performed using a firmware image file and TFTP server at
a remote client (see Figure C-1).
NOTE HP recommends that you do not update the HP Server Remote
Management Card firmware if the link between the TFTP
server and the HP Server is a dial-up network connection. A
disconnection during an update can leave the HP Server
Remote Management Card partially updated and you would
need to repeat the update before proceeding.
A firmware update takes approximately one minute over a 10Base-T LAN
connection. After the update has completed, the HP Server Remote Management
Card will be reset in order to start the new firmware.
Using the HP Server Remote Management Card Remote Boot
Feature
You can use the HP Server Remote Management Card to remotely boot the
HP Server in which you have installed the HP Server Remote Management Card.
The card boots the HP Server using a boot floppy image located on a TFTP
server.
