If you do not have access to a local FTP server to upload firmware to the service processor, you can use the sysfwdownload utility, which is provided with your system firmware upgrade package on the SunSolve site:
Run the following commands within the Solaris OS.
# cd firmware_location # sysfwdownload system_firmware_file |
Shut down the Solaris OS instance.
# shutdown -i5 -g0 -y |
Power off the system and update the firmware.
sc> poweroff -fy sc> flashupdate -s 127.0.0.1 |
Reset the service processor and power on the system.
sc> resetsc -y sc> poweron |
