How do I verify NC553i FW from within Linux (RHEL 6)?

Markus was looking for some firmware info and the tool to use to get it:

Hi all,

I’m trying to verify the NC553i (BL460c LOM) firmware rev online from within RHEL 6 – any ideas are greatly appreciated.

HPSUM (9.30c) claimed 2 out of 8 were up to date and then failed to flash the other six. Tried OneConnect instead, which claims to have succeeded, but how do I verify that without booting into SUM again to see if SUM now sees 8 of 8 update?

BTW – we did use HPSUM to verify that OneConnect worked, but something more elegant would be much appreciated.

Marc,

We have the proper PSP, but the OS load is temporary and we haven’t bothered loading the PSP onto it.

Are there any built-in Linux commands to query the LOM (NC553i) firmware? I’m drawing a blank on that one today…
