How to Upgrade HBA Firmware
Host bus adapters control internal or external disks connected to the server. SIA has the
capability to upgrade supported HBAs to allow for xes and enhancements to HBA rmware
code.
Caution – Though the upgrade of HBA rmware should not be destructive to connected storage,
Sun recommends doing a full backup of HBA connected storage before performing the
upgrade.
Note – SIA can perform rmware upgrades only. It cannot downgrade rmware.
You should have already started SIA andprepared it for tasks asdescribed in “Starting SIA and
Preparingfor Deployment or RecoveryTasks”on page 15
and theTask Selectiondialog should
be displayed.
Note – The instructions below assume local CD/DVD drive access. Be sure to modify the
instructions accordingly if you are using a local USB ash drive prepared with SIA software, or
if you are running SIA from a remote console (or KVMS) with CD-ROM redirection.
Select the HBA Firmware Upgradetask,and then click Next.
