HP BladeSystem Firmware Deployment Tool Version: 1.00
Does anybody here successfully use
HP BladeSystem Firmware Deployment Tool Version: 1.00 ?
http://tinyurl.com/326faf
I tried to use this tool on BL460c/BL480c without any success.
Sometimes it just hungs with message
"Warning: unable to open initial console...
kernel panic: No init found ...."
and sometimes it restarts during message
"Updating firmware, please wait...."
I have read release notes and I already
have Onboard Administrator Firmware version 2.10.
Any ideas ?
Thanks

Re: HP BladeSystem Firmware Deployment Tool Version: 1.00
you can do one of these things:
1. update the bl460c firmware by using the online flash utility
2. uninstall temporary one of the CPUs and install the package
or 3 - try crosschanging the CPUs :)

Re: HP BladeSystem Firmware Deployment Tool Version: 1.00
If you validate the ISO image against the MD5 checksum and everything checks out, you can put the CD in debug mode by doing the following:
- When you hear the beeps indicating the server is about to boot the OS, you will get a prompt for a couple of seconds. When you get the prompt (may be just a blinking cursor), type the word "debug" and hit Enter. You should now see boot information on the console. When the error occurs, copy the last several lines from the console and post them to this forum post so we can try to determine the cause of the failure.

Re: HP BladeSystem Firmware Deployment Tool Version: 1.00
1) MD5 checksum is OK.
2) I tried using ILO virtual media and using DVD drive connected to OA on C7000.
I tried on BL460 with dual quad-core CPU and single quad-core CPU with 4 Gb/8 Gb RAM
and on BL480 with dual quad-core and 8Gb/24 Gb RAM
Same result.
3) Attached printsreen before server restart
4) Where I can find specific list of firmware included with this Firmware Deployment Tool Version 1.00 ?
(Like cdcontent-fw.htm in firmware maintenance CD)
5) I didn't find any manual for Firmware Deployment Tool as well.
6) Can you describe more specific where I need to type "debug" ? Before or after "boot" prompt of ISOLinux ?
I tried to write "debug" without any success...
Thanks, Igor
