Freddy,
why take the risk, let HP handle it !

The time for the update depends on the complexity of the system, reboot time of existing system and the 'jump' in firmware applied.

I would recommend calling a HP engineer.
If it goes wrong, you may end up with a machine that won't boot!

Hi,

regaring the upgrade itself: I would recommend to cal HP and place a service call!

regarding the time:
just calculate up to 20min per cell board and some additional time for the MP and other devices due to several power off/on and reboots. It depends also on your current version.

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
