Firmware upgarde of HBA(A6826A)

Hi Support
I have rp4440/800/9000 server ,running hp-ux 11.11 v1.In the server ,there are two HBA cards(A6826A). As we are going to upgrade HBA card firmware, can we use "fcmsutil" command on the OS.

Thanks

If you don't boot via this card, it is enough to have the driver up-tp-date, see

If you boot over this card, you may consider to upgrade the RISC firmware using fcmsutil:

Hope this helps!

Re: Firmware upgarde of HBA(A6826A)

Hi

I downloaded firmware from the RISC Firmware from the given link.It has to be run on the EFI partition.But there is no EFI shell in the rp4440 server. Will I be able to run on HP-UX OS using flowing command?

"fcmsutil /dev/fcd0 rom_fw_update ql2312fw.bin"

Thanks

Dear Hasan

This is driver upgrade of the HBA card. But I need the firmware upgrade command from the OS.

Thanks
