Upgrade RAID controller microcode
Do not do this task if:
• The K2 SAN is a Level 10, 20, 30, or 35 SAN with RAID controller and expansion
chassis microcode already at compatible versions, as listed in Compatible K2 Lx0
RAID components on page 15 earlier in these release notes.
• The K2 SAN is a Level 2 or Level 3 SAN.
Do this task if:
• The K2 SAN is a Level 10, 20, 30, or 35 SAN with RAID controller and/or
expansion chassis microcode at a version that is not compatible.
The microcode files are copied on to the K2 Media Server when the K2 system software
is installed.
1. Refer to the K2 Lx0 RAID compatibility specifications earlier in these release
notes for the version to which you must upgrade and for the file names for the
microcode files.
2. Use Storage Utility to upgrade microcode.
Refer to the K2 SAN Installation and Service Manual for procedures.
3. On 100% completion, proceed as follows:
• If the RAID controller chassis has redundant controllers, no power cycle is
required. The microcode download is complete.
• If the RAID controller chassis does not have redundant controllers, power cycle
the RAID controller chassis, then restart the K2 Media Server.
