Update Your System to the Latest Software Release

It is highly recommended that you update your system to the latest software release before you use the system. Software releases often include bug fixes, and updating ensures that your server software is compatible with the latest server firmware and other component firmware and software.


Note -  System firmware update releases include Oracle Flash Accelerator F160 PCIe Card component firmware updates. When system firmware updates, as described in the server documentation, the Oracle Flash Accelerator F160 PCIe Card firmware automatically updates.
  1. Check the Minimum Supported Oracle 1.6 TB NVMe SSD Firmware Version in Oracle Flash Accelerator F160 PCIe Card and Oracle 1.6 TB NVMe SSD Product Notes for the latest firmware requirements, available at:

    http://www.oracle.com/goto/oracleflashf160/docs.

  2. Download and install any firmware updates required to support the card, host bus adapter (HBA), drive backplane, system BIOS, or OBP/system (SPARC) firmware.
    • You can get the latest available system BIOS, Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM), firmware, and drivers from Oracle by performing the Get Updates task in Oracle System Assistant.

      An Internet connection is required. For instructions on how to use the Get Updates task, see the server's administration guide.

    • You also can download the latest firmware and software updates from My Oracle Support at https://support.oracle.com.

      For information about downloading firmware and software from My Oracle Support, see “Getting Server Firmware and Software Updates” in the server documentation.
