Re: Onboard Administrator firmware upgrade path document?

Hi,

 

OA 2.25 can be updated in one single step to the latest version.

Only enclosures with Integrity have a muti-step recomendation as indicated above. Check this guide:

 

HP Smart Update Best Practices Implementer Guide (for HP SUM 6.x and earlier) (clicking this link will open a new window)    Pag 42

 

Can we upgrade each component directly to the latest version or do we need intermediate

revision steps?

 

Almost all components can be upgraded to the latest firmware revision without issue. The only

component that requires an interim revision is for OA firmware updates from 1.x firmware

revisions to 2.x versions. For more information, see the following support documents:

 

Customer Advisory: HP OA - Upgrading Firmware From Version 1.x to Version 2.25 (or

Later) Will Not Be Successful:

http://h20564.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/kb/docDisplay/?docId=c01597033

 

Just remember there are other components in the enclosure (VC, ilo, Blade Bios,...) that need to be aligned with the OA version. These guides can help you with this process:
