Re: Where can i get a SATA Controller FW Update (free, no subscription) for ML350 Gen.?

What is the correct one for HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen 9?

"HPE D6020 12Gb SAS Disk Enclosure ROM Flash Component"

OR

"HPE D3600/D3700/D3610/D3710 12Gb SAS Disk Enclosure"

-> https://support.hpe.com/connect/s/product?kmpmoid=1009483731&tab=driversAndSoftware&driversAndSoftwareSubtype=9000214&viewCritical=false

And i can't find a Firmware upgrade which is OS-independent... all entries have a row which represents the OS (VMWAre, Linux, Windows) - but i need the FW file for upgrading via BIOS * (That "Embedded ... " option after pressing F9 on server start)

* Can i just expand one of that OS-dependent files and then extract the firmware file from it, so i can install it via BIOS?

???

This is all very very confusing.

Hello,

  • Both the disk enclosures listed above are external to the server and hence cannot be updated from the server's BIOS.
  • They are connected to the server usually through the external connectivity ports on HPE Smart Array controllers.installed in the server.
  • These controllers are not designed to update the firmware of the extrnal connect dirtect attach storage encelosures from the Option ROM interface from POST prompt.
  • Hence, the firmware update has to be done from within the operating system.
  • Please review instructions in the 'Installation Instruction' tab of the firmware download page of the relevant Operating System for steps to update firmware.
