Re: rp7410/8400 firmware upgrades
Are you installing vPars and that's what brought you to the f/w update... wondering what a scree board has to do w/ it?
Sorry, but I have no idea what a scree board on the rp7410 is either. when in doubt and dealing w/ firmware, I'd go through hp support.

Re: rp7410/8400 firmware upgrades
the part may be relevant for the firmware upgrade process.
Since the process is complex enough, I would suggest to give HP a call and let a ce do the upgrade.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: rp7410/8400 firmware upgrades
In the latest firmware the support for new PA8700 processors has been added
The scree board is required if you upgrade the CPU to new PA8700 processors .
This CPU upgradation requires the presence or installation of scree board which gets attached to the system board. Of course the system board have to have scree board connector to be able to connect this board as well. The scree board enables the firmware upgrades for these new processors.
As far as the Vpar implementation is concerned and as document says , it requires latest firmware and need the version compatibility.
I would advise to contact HP for the right and legible source of information.

Re: rp7410/8400 firmware upgrades
As Torsten said, the firmware upgrade in an rp8400 is complicated. It can take several hours to complete if done properly. If done improperly, you can "brain-dead" some components in your server. I don't know about you, but the cost of having a production box down for any length of time much more that offsets the cost of paying an HP CE to come out to do the upgrade. Unless this is a dev box and you don't care about extended down time.
Good Luck - Tim
