5. If the controller that you want to update the firmware for is on the list of

programmable devices, select it and press the Enter key. (If it is not present, you
are prompted to insert the remaining diskettes for devices not listed on the first
diskette.)

6. The action that you must now take depends on the message on the screen.

— If the screen message reads as follows, press the Enter key, and then go to

step 8 of these instructions:

The ROM image files found for the device selected are not
newer than the current ROM image

— If the ROM firmware currently on the controller is older than that on the

Options ROMPaq diskette, then the screen message reads as follows:

Device to reprogram:

All Compaq Smart Array nnnn

Controller(s)
Controller(s) Current ROM revision: Compaq Smart Array
nnnn Controller x.xx
Select Firmware Images: Compaq Smart Array nnnn
Controller y.yy

In this case, press the Enter key and then go to step 7.

7. Review the information on the Caution screen, and then press the Enter key to

reprogram the controller ROM.

The following message is displayed:

Reprogramming Firmware

Do not interrupt the reprogramming process. You will be notified when
reprogramming is complete.

8. When the reprogramming of the array controller ROM is finished, you can

reprogram more options or exit the utility.

— To reprogram another option, press the Enter key, and then repeat steps 5

through 7.

— If you have finished reprogramming options, press the Esc key to exit the

utility.

9. Remove the Options ROMPaq diskette and restart the server.
