Can't update firmware for P410 on a ProLiant DL180G6

[bulgarion]

Hi,
I downloaded the latest Supplemental Update / Online ROM Flash Component for Linux - Smart Array P212, P410, P410i, P411, and P712m from the support area. Then I downloaded the latest maintenance CD and flashed it to an USB key with the HP utility. I put the firmware executable (the latest, Sept. 18 2009, ver. 2.50) CP011721.scexe and its MD5 on the suggested "compaq\swpackages" folder (where the other .scexe files are stored), but when I start up the USB key, the system says that there's nothing upgradable. This is nonsense - I have a P410 controller with a RAID 5 of 3 SATA drives...
Anyone that took the firmware upgrade successfully on a DL180 G6 system?

Ok, now I got from the support matrix that the 8.60 release of the Firmware CD does *NOT* support DL180 G6 system.
So... what's next?

Got the solution - the Firmware Maintenance CD is definitely *not* for the DL180G6. Used a CentOS Live CD , installed the lib c++ compat and executed the firmware upgrade correctly.

For anyone reading this thread, a much easier solution is to use the Maintenance CD version 8.40. It works just fine with the DL180G6 right out of the box.

Version 3.50 has bug, you need to update the firmware to version 3.52.
