Methods for Updating the Firmware

To update the firmware on the server, controller, or hard drives, use Smart
Components. These components are available on the Firmware Maintenance CD.
A more recent version of a particular component might be available on the
support page of the HP website (

http://www.hp.com/support

). Components for

controller and hard drive firmware updates are also available from the software
and drivers page for storage products
(

http://www.hp.com/support/proliantstorage

).

1. Find the most recent version of the component that you require. Components

for controller firmware updates are available in offline and online formats.

2. Follow the instructions for installing the component on the server. These

instructions are given with the CD and are provided on the same Web page
as the component.

3. Follow the additional instructions that describe how to use the component to

flash the ROM. These instructions are provided with each component.
