Smart Array P220i/P420i is not getting upgrade even after Firmware is updated from 2.2.5 to 2.2.11

Hi All,

    I recently upgraded my ProLiant BL460c Gen8 from 2.2.5 to 2.2.11. After upgrade, i found that its iLO version got updated from 1.30 to 2.50, but both Smart Array P220i/P420i remains at  4.68 & 6.34 instead of upgrading to 8.00.

    Any particular reason for this? Blade's TPD version is 6.7.0.0.1_84.20.0

 

Regards,

Ajay

The upgraded Blade’s iLO Firmware gets updated while its System ROM, Smart Array P220i Firmware doesn’t get update. To resolve this, we need to upgrade the Firmware once more.

 

     Eg: - If I need to do a Firmware upgrade from 2.2.9 to 2.2.11, its current iLO4 version will be 2.10, System ROM will be I31 11/02/2014, Smart Array P220i will be 6.34. After FUP upgrade, iLO4 version will be changed to 2.50 while other 2 remain the same. And later if you do the FUP upgrade once more on top of it, its System ROM will be changed to 2015.06.01I31 & Smart Array P220i will be changed to 8.00.
