Download Firmware From My Oracle Support

This procedure shows how to obtain firmware updates from the support.oracle.com.

1. Download the latest available system firmware version from My Oracle Support.

   See the web page Firmware Downloads and Release History for Oracle Systems (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/systems/patches/firmware/release-history-jsp-138416.html) for links to firmware downloads for each server type.

   The download is an archive file such as a zip file which you must extract to find the Sun_System_Firmware directory containing the firmware pkg file.

2. Place the firmware in a shared location that the host can access.

   For example, unzip it on a local or network share or on a TFTP, FTP, HTTP or HTTPS server.

3. Apply the firmware updates to the server.

   See the instructions in Update the System Firmware from Oracle ILOM or Update the System Firmware From the Host.
