Common Questions About Flashing Firmware
Question After I update firmware on my SAS HBA, why doesn't the version string change
in the menu?
Answer The firmware you just flashed on the HBA does not run until a diagnostic reset
occurs. If you exit the utility and reenter it, the version string is updated.
Question This image does not contain a valid nvdata when I try to flash the firmware, why?
Answer You are expected to concatenate a proper nvdata image on to the firmware.
mptutil
keeps you from flashing an image without one. To concatenate nvdata
and firmware you need to run the mptutil -o -d
64it__l.fw,sas106x.dat,output.fw
command. .
• 64it__l.fw is the firmware image without a nvdata image
• sas106x.dat is the nvdata image. This file depends on the type/rev of HBA
on which the firmware is used
• output.fw is the name of the file created with the firmware and nvdata
concatenated. This concatenated image can be used for all boards of this type
or revision.
Question How do I program multiple cards in a system from the command line?
Answer mptutil (EFI) does not support this.
Question Can I program a new flash and option ROM in the same command line argument?
Answer Yes. Run the mptutil -f <firmware_name> -b <option_rom_name>
command.
