Management tools
ROMPaq utility
Flash ROM enables you to upgrade the firmware (BIOS) with system or option ROMPaq utilities. To
upgrade the BIOS, insert a ROMPaq diskette into the diskette drive and boot the system.
The ROMPaq utility checks the system and provides a choice (if more than one exists) of available ROM
revisions. This procedure is the same for both system and option ROMPaq utilities.
For more information about the ROMPaq utility, refer to the HP website
(http://www.hp.com/servers/manage
).

be sure it is operating properly. The utility has online help and can be accessed using the Support CD.
