Re: update firmware virtual connect 1/10 enet
Check your OA version and your server ROM/ILO versions against the matrix first though (and update these before the VC). You will also need the latest VCSU to do the upgrade (think it's 1.5.2).
Also be aware of the flash requirements of 3.xx of VC manager GUI.

Re: update firmware virtual connect 1/10 enet
the new vcm gui uses flash and it's worth checking the release notes for supported browser config.
upgrade order:
ilo/rom on blades
oa
vc - using vcsu

Re: update firmware virtual connect 1/10 enet
-- EVA or similar SAN device
-- command view DEVA
-- fabric switches
You should see the HP firmware releases; these are all interrelated, and could involve downttime
And, DO NOT FORGET the HP MPIO and MPIO manager

Re: update firmware virtual connect 1/10 enet
-- mezzanine adapter firmware
-- drivers for that mezzanine card
-- MPIO (multi-path) support drivers and the MPIO manager
-- firmware in fabric switch(es)
-- firmware in the SAN device (HSV for EVA)
-- current version of command view EVA (an upgrade may be required, depending on the other versions of firmware, so that you can control the EVA properly if newer firmware is recommended).
Virtual Connect is incredibly sensitive to all of these firmware revisison levels; please read the HP suggested best practices for firmware managment
