Integrity System Board Fw downgrade

[Bong9721]

Hello, need some help if there is any specifc procedures to do system board firmware downgrade? We need to replace defective system board with fw level 2.61. However our new system board is at fw 2.68. The platform is BL890c i4. Thanks

Hi,

Here is an old post about downgrading firmware.
https://community.hpe.com/t5/Integrity-Servers/HP-integrity-server-rx4640-Downgrade-Firmware-update/td-p/5726659

As per the documentation, I presume that HP SUM tool should be able to do it.

Please note that I personally have not tried this process or is documented.

Good Luck.

Thank You!

Use Smart Update Manager and after adding a node and the required firmware file, check the "Allow Rewrite" feature. That will downgrade the firmware
