Re: How to upgrade the firmware of a server
depend slightly on the server model.
Normally, a search at hp.com for a server's
model number will lead to fairly complete
info on firmware for that system, including
installation instructions.
I might suggest an actual Web page, but my
psychic powers are to weak to reveal your
server's model number.

Re: How to upgrade the firmware of a server
No.
Since this is a cell based server it is a bit more complicated.
IMHO the best advise is to ask HP support to do it.
If you do something wrong you can easily kill your system.
Hope this helps!

Re: How to upgrade the firmware of a server
With the 20 series you can't use OFM and must set up an FTP server, then ask the MP to grab the firmware files using FTP. Some manual work is required. I did it a few times, it's doable and well documented, but if you're not comfortable better ask HP to do this.
