BL460c ROM/BIOS upgrade fails

[Slapbladder]

Hi....
Having major problems with upgrading the BIOS/ROM on BL460c blades. The firmware seems to be stuck at l15 05/01/2007 and fails on the upgrade procedure. The iLo, onboard admin upgrades ok as well as the virtual connect cards. I have tried the bulk firmware upgrade and also the individual .exe....
Fails with the error cannot erase ROM.HELP this is driving me crazy.
Cheers
James

Hi,

did you ry to go to the next ione and from there on to update to the latest?

You tried Firmware Maintenace CD 8.0 also?

In case that you have same problems, you can set the maintenance switch position 1,5,6 to on , so you switch to redundant ROM and then try the update again.
