Guys !
Need quick help !
We have a troublesome server - BL460C, for which we tried updating the SPP in Interactive Mode. All went fine, and server rebooted. On bootup, it was missing NIC/CNA's. We then again rebooted the server with OFFLINE(.ISO) firmware image for HP Emulex Converged Network Adapters and Network Adapters and issue got fixed.
Now, we need to be sure of -
1. What are the ideal steps to upgrade firmware in this case ?
2. Server is in production with OS running on it.
3. Is the procedure we followed - SPP upgrade in Interactive + Offline upgrade of Emulux drivers - the correct procedure ?
Or thinking about it, we should have used HP SUM from within the OS ....hmmm
Please suggest !
