Update the SP Firmware from the Host

To update SP firmware from the host, use the fwupdate utility, included in Oracle Solaris 11.3 as part of the Oracle Hardware Management Pack (OHMP).


Note -  Starting with Oracle SPARC T7-series servers, the sysfwdownload utility no longer ships with SP firmware releases, and is no longer supported.

For more information on using the fwpudate utility, refer to "Using fwupdate to Update Firmware" in the Oracle Server CLI Tools for Oracle Solaris 11.3 User Guide

  • After obtaining a desired SP firmware package, update the SP from the HOST:
    # fwupdate update sysfw-firmware -n sp -f firmware-package-file.pkg

    where firmware-package-file.pkg is the path to the firmware package for your server's SP.
