Updating BIOS Manually?

Paul Hutchings — Sun, 27 May 2012 16:12:57 GMT

Can I confirm if there is any issue with updating the BIOS on our P4300 G2 and P4500 G2 nodes manually please?

We're on 9.0 and I have a bunch of software upgrades that need to go on, and rightly or wrongly I've never been a fan of online firmware updates and would prefer to be able to bring each node down to update, then deal with just the SANiQ updates from the CMC.

Thanks,

Paul

Hey Paul,

It can be done. I've even been asked to do this by HP support.

You can find the neccesary documentation in the "P4900, P4300 & P4500 Firmware Compatibility Matrix".
