If you install the Oracle Flash Accelerator F160 PCIe Card or the Oracle 1.6TB NVMe SSD as an x-option, you must update the firmware to RA13, or a subsequent release if available. Servers ordered with this option installed already have the updated firmware.
For firmware upgrade instructions, refer to the NVMe card and SSD documentation at: http://www.oracle.com/goto/oracleflashf160/docs.
