Update Firmware on a Managed Device

Before You Begin

To initiate the firmware update process from the SP or CMM CLI or web interface:

  1. Determine the current firmware version installed on the server SP or CMM.
    • For the web interface, click System Information > Summary, and view the property value for the System Firmware Version in the General Information table.

    • For the CLI, at the command prompt, type: version

    For information about the numbering scheme used to identify a firmware version, see Broken Link (Target ID: Z40000091292285).

  2. Open a new web browser tab or window and navigate to the following site to download the Oracle ILOM firmware image.

    http://support.oracle.com/

    For detailed instructions on downloading software updates from the My Oracle Support web site, see Broken Link (Target ID: Z40000091289850).


    Note - Updating the system firmware image on a managed device to a prior firmware release is not recommended. However, if an earlier firmware release is required, Oracle ILOM will support the firmware update process to any prior firmware release that is available from the download site.


  3. Place the firmware image on a server supporting one of the following protocols: TFTP, FTP, HTTP, HTTPS.
    • For a web interface firmware update, copy the image to the system on which the Oracle ILOM web browser is running.

    • For a CLI firmware update, copy the image to a server that is accessible from your network.

  4. To update the Oracle ILOM firmware image from the SP or CMM web interface, click ILOM Administration > Maintenance > Firmware Upgrade, and then click Enter Upgrade Mode.

    For detailed instructions about using the firmware update dialogs, refer to Oracle ILOM 3.1 Configuration and Maintenance.

  5. To update the Oracle ILOM firmware image from the Oracle ILOM server SP or CMM CLI, type:

    -> load -source supported_protocol://server_ip/path_to_firmware_image/ filename.xxx

    For detailed instructions about using the CLI firmware update prompts, refer to Oracle ILOM 3.1 Configuration and Maintenance.

  6. Verify that the appropriate firmware version was installed after the system reboots.
