Can't Upgrade Management Processor Firmware to current release

James Simmons_3 — Mon, 20 Jun 2005 12:20:11 GMT

I'm trying to update my MP card firmware to version E.03.13 on an rx5670.

My MP card currently has version E.02.10 installed.

In order to upgrade to any version newer than E.02.26, you must (according to HP) upgrade to E.02.26 first.

Unfortunately I cannot locate a downloadable E.02.26 firmware installation on the patch and firmware download site.

Any way around this issue?
Thanks.

James,

try this link, it has all MP F/W rev's.
Just go to www.hp.com choose drivers and enter rx5670 and you get here:

Oops... Sorry. I finally found the download for E.02.26. It showed up in "download drivers and software" section of support site... Not in the firmware downloads where all the other versions were listed.

I think I'm back on track now.
