Re: rx2600 Firmware Update Problem.

How did you "power off" the MP?

What is the exact current status?

Hope this helps!

Shalom,

I think it safe to say after six days, the process is dead.

Powering off the whole system is probably safe.

iLO will pretty much update to the latest version without issues.

MP, BMC may have intermediate steps. It does not look like you missed ont but that may be the case.

Most important: is the system alive?
