Re: HW FW update P4000 G2
This is covered with the updates inside the CMC, you do not have to use the HP FW CD's...

Re: HW FW update P4000 G2
Now IF we put a firmware update in a patch, then yes, 9.0 will apply that.
Going forward, we HOPE to put all future f/w updates in patches.
Today, the only firmware update handled by 9.0 is the P410 firmware (to 3.66, patch 10102 ) and P400 firmware (to 7.22, patch 10090).
Beyond those, firmware/iLO/BIOS etc., still needs to be updated the old fashioned way for now.
For firmware/iLO/BIOS/HDD Backplane/ HDDs etc
use Smart Update Firmware DVD from the Link Below

Re: HW FW update P4000 G2
It doesn't inspire confidence when you have P4000 support telling you that a P4300/P4500 G2 is a tweaked/tuned/customized DL180 so shouldn't be treated like a normal DL180, and then you have support pointing people to a regular Smartstart DVD that makes no mention of supporting P4000.
That's intended to be constructive criticism, not sure how easy it is to pass up the chain to the folks who put together the support matrices.

The RAID Controller firmware is being upgraded through patches so, one need not worry about it.
Apart from that as long as you have the other firmware versions at the levels mentioned on the SPOCK PDF, one should be fine.
