How to update HP 1/10Gb-F Virtual Connect Ethernet Module firmware
i have some misunderstanding with HP 1/10Gb-F Virtual Connect Ethernet Module firmware update and your support.
I have c3000 enclosure with 4 BL490c blade server
i have updates c3000 enclosure OA to the 3.00 Mar 19 2010 version.
i have updated BL490c BIOSes up to D21 and iLO up to 1.81 version
i have HP 1/10Gb-F Virtual Connect Ethernet Module PN: 447047-B21 with 1.34 firmware version
i want to update it to the last 2.32 version
1. when i'm visiting HP 1/10Gb-F Virtual Connect Ethernet Module download page
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3552696&prodTypeId=3709945&prodSeriesId=3552695&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=1005
i cannot find out my model in the list to download proper firmware, there are 5 types of firmwares and i don't know which one is for my module?
2. can i use Virtual Connect Manager to update my firmware? or i have to use VCSU to update firmware?
2.32 Release Notes

Re: How to update HP 1/10Gb-F Virtual Connect Ethernet Module firmware
It really depends on what other interconnect modules you have installed.
You will probably have noticed that they all say "...Firmware, Ethernet plus ...". If you are using any of the modules listed after the "plus", then this is the FW kit you need.
If you are not using any of these modules, then you will just be updating the ENet Modules and (maybe) the basic 4GB FC VC modules, in which case you can probably use any of the kits.
NOTE: If you do not already have it, I recommend that you download the Virtual Connect Support Utility (on the same page), and use it to install your firmware. I would avoid using the built-in VCM Firmware Update GUI.
HTH

Re: How to update HP 1/10Gb-F Virtual Connect Ethernet Module firmware
Log in to your OA, and click on the "Rack Firmware" link at the top Left.
It should show you what version your ENet module is at.
I have never used Smart Update Manager to update Virtual Connect. I have always used the "Virtual Connect Support Utility" (available from the VC Firmware download page).
Your attachment doesn't show it, but where are you getting the information regarding the current VC firmware version??
Dave.

Re: How to update HP 1/10Gb-F Virtual Connect Ethernet Module firmware
IE8 was not out when 1.34 was being worked on. So it was not known as unsupported.
But once it was out then later versions of VC firmware state that it is not supported.

Re: How to update HP 1/10Gb-F Virtual Connect Ethernet Module firmware
If you check the link below, you will see that although HPSUM can be used to update OA firmware, there is no mention of Virtual Connect.
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?locale=en_US&objectID=c01039146
I suspect that HPSUM does not do VC firmware (yet).
Note: if the forum has been of assistance to you, then you should award points appropriately, and close tickets (if solution has been found)
