iscsi boot on bl 460c g1 - nc373m adapter
hi,
i want the nc373m nic adapter to boot from an iscsi device.
HP ProLiant BL460c G1
NC373m Dual Port Multifunction 1Gb NIC for c-Class BladeSystem
Firmware Current Version: I15 10/25/2010
In the bios, there is an option to switch to iscsi boot which i did.
1. ( embedded nics -> NIC 1 Boot Options -> ISCSI Boot )
2. Pressing CTRL+S to configure the
Broadcom NetXtreme II Ethernet Boot Agent v 2.8.3
3. MBA Configuration Menu
Boot Protocol -> Preboot Execution Environment ( PXE)
a) i try to toggle this to iscsi ( pressing arrow left or right ) -> not working
b) i try to Press CTRL+K ( which is in all documentation found the key to switch to iSCSI Cfg )
-> not working / no reaction
c) i try to Press CTRL-I ( which is shown as the Hotkey for iSCSI Cfg in my MBA Configuration Menu )
-> not working / no reaction
( By the way, if you select in the ROM Setup PXE Boot, its CTRL+K, if you have selected iSCSI Boot, its CTRL+I )
But both anyway not working, in MBA it stays on PXE.
And so this is where i stuck now.
I tried to download a new Firmware, but it seems thats not available.
I tried this HP SoftPaq Download Manager, but it just holds Desktop stuff.
All the found documentation is not working / helping.
Does anyone please have an advice for me ?
Thank you and greetings
Oliver

Re: iscsi boot on bl 460c g1 - nc373m adapter
hi,
so what i found now in the DELL Dokumentation:
"
If iSCSI boot firmware is not programmed in the NetXtreme network adapter, selecting CTRL+K will not have any effect.
"
Ok, so obviously this is the case here, the question is now, how to get the firmware to enable iscsi >,<
According to the HP Support DVD the firmware is up to date, and it also dont let me re-apply the firmware patch.
Greetings
Oliver
