Chapter 11: Maintaining and Managing Storage Configurations
Upgrading Firmware
NOTE If Online Firmware Update is not supported on the controller, the
confirmation message box does not appear. Instead, after an image is
downloaded, a message appears that indicates an image is being
flashed. The controller is updated with the new firmware code
contained in the.rom file. Reboot the system after the new firmware
is flashed. The new firmware does not take effect until reboot.
If you click Ye s in the confirmation message box, the progress bar continues with a message that indicates that an
image is being flashed.
After the progress bar disappears, either of the following two messages appear in a message box.
— New Firmware Version is flashed successfully. Online Firmware Update is not
possible in this case. System reboot is required for the new firmware
<version number> to take effect.
— New Firmware Version is flashed successfully. Controller Reset will start
now.
If the first message appears, reboot your system.
If the second message appears, the MegaRAID Storage Manager main menu window reappears. A Restart
Started event appears in the log (at the bottom of the MegaRAID Storage Manager main menu window) and a
progress bar appears that states Controller reset is in progress.
After the controller reset process is completed, the controller is updated with the new firmware code contained in
the.rom file.
