Servers firmware updates

[Torsten.]

Use hp.com -> software and drivers to find it.

There is a windows and a linux version, because you need a PC to run the HP SUM utility in order to update the server (remote).


Note: there are different versions for the "normal" and the office-friendly version of the server!

spelling mistake :)

the device path should be /dev/rdisk/disk28_p1....and you have used /dev/rdsk/disk28_p1

If this doesn't work, try

# ioscan -m dsf | grep -i disk28

And use cxtxdx format filename (legacy device) to copy firmware files.

Rgrds,
