Applying OA firmware 2.02

Ariel_7 — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 09:38:19 GMT

Hello,

When applying the firmware for the OA, is it only the OA itself that is rebooted, or the entire enclosure (including the blades themselves)? In other words, are there any disruptions to the blades when applying the OA firmware update?

Thanks!

Hi Ariel,

When you apply the latest Firmware only the OA is rebooted.

Note: Blades are Not rebooted.

No There are no disruptions to the blades when applying the OA firmware update.

Thanks for pointing that out. I just downlowded 2.02 yesterday (I thought). I also just finished deploying 1.35 firmware for ILO and now it looks like 1.42 is available as well. Thanks for the additional information.

Hi Ariel,

You are right. You can upgrade the iLO's first then you can upgrade the OA firmware.

Some times you may see some problems if you do it other way.
