This is the command I used:
vcutil -a update -i 10.1.50.55 -u User -p pass -l C:\HP\vcfwe1f232.bin -b 4 -vcu User -vcp pass
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Firmware update failure on Virtual Connect 4Gb FC Module
I resolved the issue by removing the module and re-inserting it, thus forcing a "cold" reboot. This activated the new firmware image which was "loaded" by vcsu.
From your post it appears that you only have one FC module in bay 4 (??). If this is the case, then you might want to do this during downtime. (if you have two then it depends on your configuration).
Note: when you remove the FC module, it will disappear from the OA, and will be rediscovered when you replace it, although this might take several minutes. Also, although the new FW version (1.4) shows up in my OA firmware page, the VCM does not show the FC firmware level.
Anyway HTH

Re: Firmware update failure on Virtual Connect 4Gb FC Module
I was jus trying to only do one at a time by using the -b option. I get the same results in both bays.
I hate the idea of pulling out the bay, is there any other way to reset them?

Re: Firmware update failure on Virtual Connect 4Gb FC Module
I have another C7000 that was able to update both the ethernet and fc vc's. The differene being is that the fc on this C7000 were not yet connected to the SAN.

Re: Firmware update failure on Virtual Connect 4Gb FC Module
I got the error when trying to upgrade from 1.30 to 1.40. HP swapped the module and the "new" module is at 1.11. This still gives the same error.

SolutionPlease try the following:
1. Pull VCFC module out of the enclosure wait for at least 5 minutes, then reinsert it.
2. Failover OA module (active to standby) from OA web interface. Wait for 5 minutes.
3. Upgrade the VCFC firmware using VCSU.
If that does not work try to:
1. VCSU -a resetvcm -i -u -p
2. failover OA
3. Upgrade FW using VCSU

Michal
