Re: HP integrity server rx4640 Downgrade Firmware update

This "good tool" also known as HP SUM can only be used with "i2" Integrity blades and superdome 2, but not with this system.

I assume you already did an update, so you know how it works.

Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: HP integrity server rx4640 Downgrade Firmware update

Remember, you need a special ia64 version for itanium, any x86 or x64 version will not work - no matter what firmware is running.


Hope this helps!
