How to upgrade RAID Controller Firmware/BIOS for HP ML350 Gen9?

Hi there!

How to upgrade RAID Controller Firmware/BIOS for HP ML350 Gen9? (No warranty anymore..)

So i saw, there is no option in the ML350 Gen9 iLO web GUI, so where i have a do the RAID Controller Firmware/BIOS update?

Do i need a special tool? Do i need to upgrade in the HP storage administration GUI (which is callable from the system BIOS, it's not an application that runs on server's OS..)

Maybe there is a software tool for windows server 2016 to upgrade the controller to the most current version?

Thank you very much for your feedbacks! :-)


With best regards,
Jan

Hi,

yes there is one Software that Updates any Firmware and Driver (you can select).

Download "Service Pack for ProLiant" http://www.hpe.com/servers/spp/download

You can Boot the ISO Image (with iLO) for Firmware Update, or Mount and use Setup in Windows for Driver & Firmware Update or create a bootable USB Stick (Tool is included).

This is a "All in One" collection.

The server firmware can be updated using a ROMPaq boot Diskette. Download the Server ROMPaq file from the HPE Business Support Center. Run the download file to create the ROMPaq boot Diskette.
