C-7000 Enclosure - PMC firmware version not available

[Michael Denkinger]

I just updated an enclosure full of 460cG1 blades and updated the OA's to ver. 2.60. For some reason it isn't showing the PMC firmware in the Rack Firmware view.

I updated the enclosure in the following steps:

1) iLo2 updates to ver. 1.81 on all blades
2) Power Management Controller to ver 3.4 on all blades
3) Powered down all blades, connected them to a Firmware Deployment Utility on USB, bounced and ran updates.
4) Upgraded OA from 2.3x to 2.60 directly.

I'm wondering if the jump from 2.3 to 2.60 is the issue? If it is, 1)have I permanently busted the OA's or anything else and 2)do I need to force a downgrade to ver 2.4 (or lower), run through the update dance again and then upgrade the OAs to ver. 2.6?

Any help would be appreciated!
