FIXES:
System FW 04.30

- In rare circumstances, an attempt to set system boot path information on a running OS (including HP-UX setboot,
Service Guard, TOC (Transfer of Control)) may cause a panic or MCA if system is reset at the same time.
This is now fixed.

Hewlett-Packard continually strives to provide customers with the highest quality of products.
To meet this goal, several minor performance and reliability improvements have been identified
that Hewlett-Packard has included in this firmware release.

PREREQUISITES:
- The iLO-2 MP firmware update will fail if the "Allow MP firmware upgrade via PCI" option is disabled in the iLO-2 MP submenu under Security Options menu.
To update the firmware using this package, enable this option in the Security Options Login Options sub-menu of the iLO-2 MP Security Options menu.
- System firmware versions 03.01 and later require the following minimum
HP-UX updates:
- HP-UX 11i v2
- HP-UX 11i v3

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Please review all instructions and the "Hewlett-Packard Support Tool License Terms" or your Hewlett-
Packard support terms and conditions for precautions, scope of license, restrictions, and limitation of
liability and warranties, before installing this package. It is important that you read and understand these
instructions completely before you begin. This can determine your success in completing the firmware
update.

CAUTION: Before you start the update, disable OpenVMS system disk shadowing.
The system disk of the OpenVMS server cannot be a shadow set. If the system disk is a shadow set,
please refer to the OpenVMS Volume Shadowing manuals on how to dissolve the shadow set and then
follow the instructions below to update the firmware.

6 - The following should be displayed:
-> Logs have been cleared.

Instalation Instructions:
HP-UX -Loading Firmware files onto EFI partition

1 - You may need superuser privileges. Download "PF_CMERLSYS0415AEFI.tar.gz" and then FTP to
an empty directory on the server requiring the firmware update.
2 - Use "gunzip" to unzip the file:
# gunzip PF_CMERLSYS0430EFI.tar.gz
3 - Use the "tar" command to extract the firmware files "update_SFW.nsh", "fweupdate_1p91.efi":
# tar -xvf PF_CMERLSYS0415AEFI.tar
4 - Determine the character-special device file for the EFI partition on your disk. Depending upon the
volume manager installed, the path may vary.Check the "bdf" output.

If the disk path is of the format /dev/vx/dsk/* then VxVM is installed. However if the disk path is
of the format /dev/vg* then LVM is installed.Depending on the volume manager installed, proceed
to the correct section below.

- For VxVM users: Type "vxdisk list" to get the list of disks. The file will be /dev/vx/dmp/*s1. (i.e./dev/vx/dmp/c2t1d0s1)
# vxdisk list
DEVICE TYPE DISK GROUP STATUS
c2t0d0s2 auto:LVM - - LVM
c2t1d0s2 auto:hpdisk rootdisk01 rootdg online

Do a "vxprint" command on the disk belonging to the group "rootdg".In the above output, the disk would be "rootdisk01"
# vxprint -l rootdisk01
Disk group: rootdg
Disk: rootdisk01
info: diskid=1201226032.5.hpdst167
assoc: device=c2t1d0s2 type=auto
flags: autoconfig
device: path=/dev/vx/dmp/c2t1d0s2
devinfo: publen=34640800 privlen=1024
timeout: 30

Note the device file of the disk. In this example the disk device file would be "c2t1d0" and the device file for the EFI partition would be "/dev/vx/dmp/c2t1d0s1".
- For LVM users: Check "bdf" output to identify the name of the disk associated with the root "/" directory
# bdf

In the above output, the disk would be lvol3. Depending on the operating system installed, the device file for the EFI partition may vary.
- For HP-UX 11i v2: The file will be /dev/rdsk/*s1. (i.e. /dev/rdsk/c2t1d0s1) For more
information, type "man vgdisplay" and " man 4 efi". Do a lvdisplay command with
the name of the disk associated with the root "/" directory obtained from the
output of "bdf".
# lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol3 | more
--- Distribution of logical volume ---
PV Name LE on PV PE on PV
/dev/dsk/c2t1d0s2 50 50

Note the device file of the disk. In this example the disk device file would be "c2t1d0" and the device file for the EFI partition would be "/dev/rdsk/c2t1d0s1".
- For HP-UX 11i v3: The file will be /dev/rdisk/*p1. (i.e. /dev/rdisk/disk2_p1) For more information, type "man vgdisplay" and "man 4 efi".Do a lvdisplay command
with the name of the disk associated with the root "/" directory obtained from the output of "bdf".
# lvdisplay -v /dev/vg00/lvol3 | more
--- Distribution of logical volume ---
PV Name LE on PV PE on PV
/dev/disk/disk2_p2 256 256

Note the device file of the disk. In this example the disk device file would be "disk2" and the device file for the EFI partition would be "/dev/rdisk/disk2_p1".

5 - Type the following command to create the /efi/hp/firmware folder in the EFI partition using the
character-special device file determined in step 4 in place of "/dev/rdsk/c2t1d0s1":
# /usr/sbin/efi_mkdir -d /dev/rdsk/c2t1d0s1 /efi/hp/firmware
6 - Type the following command to copy the "update_SFW.nsh" file to the folder created in EFI partition in the above step.

After this firmware upgrade, Users of Operating Systems other than Windows Server
2003,(HPUX/Linux/VMS/Windows Server 2008) should set the MPS optimization switch ON at the
EFI shell to improve the IO performance.This setting defaults to OFF, because of an
incompatibility with Windows Server 2003.
shell> ioconfig mps_optimize on
2 - WARNING
IF DOWNGRADING TO THIS FIRMWARE VERSION: Before downgrading to this firmware version,
please ensure that it is compatible with the currently installed processors and other hardware.

DETERMINING CURRENT VERSION:
1 - Establish a telnet session with the iLO-2 MP.
2 - Logon to the iLO-2 MP using the Admin password.
3 - Type "CM" to enter the Command Menu.
4 - Type "SYSREV" to display system revision information. The following should be displayed if the current firmware is installed:

Current firmware revisions
MP FW : F.02.26
BMC FW : 05.26
EFI FW : ROM A 07.14, ROM B 07.14
System FW : ROM A 04.30, ROM B 04.15, Boot ROM A
PDH FW : 50.07
UCIO FW : 03.0b
PRS FW : 00.08 UpSeqRev: 02, DownSeqRev: 01
HFC FW : 00.05 SetRev: 00

NOTE: HFC FW is applicable only to Office Friendly Servers.
NOTE: Only one of the System FW ROMs will be upgraded in the firmware update process,
therefore the two ROMs will show different firmware revisions. The Boot ROM should contain the latest firmware.
NOTE: HFC and PRS firmware are not contained within this package and will not be updated.
5 - If the System firmware revision in the current Boot ROM, or any other firmware component is less than those listed above, then firmware should be updated.

KNOWN ISSUES:
- The new enhancement "vFlash beyond 2 GB support" will not work properly, if the target is remote.
- System firmware versions 04.03 and later require the following HP-UX package be installed in
order for HP-UX to respond to power policy changes made via iLO Power Regulator and HP
Insight Power Manager (IPM): PHKL_37724
- iLO Virtual Media installation of this firmware package via remote MP connection to an ISO image
file is not supported. The ISO image must be burned to CD/DVD media and mounted on a
physical drive connected to the target system.
- The vMedia USB key can be connected to the server even if the local client has current open
access. This can lead to files being unexpectedly overwritten. The user should verify that all local
USB key access is closed prior to connecting to the server.
- The iLO-2 MP Web Console size is adjustable by Zoom out, then clicking and dragging the corner
to desired size. After changes to the Emulation configuration, the Web Console may require a
click in the text space or click of the Reset button to start working properly.
- Restricting iLO-2 MP access using Time Restriction settings in the e-Directory does not work
correctly with 1/2 time zones.

FIXES:
iLO-2 MP FW F.02.26
- Fixed an issue that prevented LDAP authentication for user@domain.com and domain/user format to work
- Fixed an issue where some Virtual Media connection request could cause iLO to hang
- Fixed an issue with MP F.02.25, where the IRC (Integrated Remote Console) was not working. A new window would open but remain blank with only a red x displayed in the upper left corner.

System FW 04.15
- Corrected an issue introduced in System FW 03.01 where PCI-X "mode 2" I/O Cards installed in
the (PCI-X 133) slots could hang the system in some situations.
- Fixed random MCAs with XPN and zx2 logging rope forward progress timeouts, with an MCA
signature not easily traceable to a hardware, firmware, or software problem.

System FW 04.11
- Fixed incorrect status of "INVALID" ROM revision observed in "fwconfig" command output after
"fwconfig copy ROM from a to b" and a system reset.
- Corrected "pdt" command to display "correctable" and "uncorrectable" rather than SBE and MBE respectively.

System FW 04.04
- Added code to recognize the MVX OFS product ID with ODE Mapper.

System FW 04.03
- During extensive lab testing, HP observed a general exception fault occurring with a Machine
Check Abort (MCA) on Dual Core Intel (R) Itanium (R) 9000 series (Montecito) and 9100
series(Montvale) processors. An MCA arriving during a call to PAL_MC_ERROR_INFO will cause
corruption of the stacked registers for MCAs, which are not PAL corrected, resulting in undefined
behavior. This has not been observed outside extreme stress testing in the lab environment.
- Increased tftp performance during Windows WinPE 2.0 boot used to install Windows.
- EFI shell "TFTP" Put will no longer fail with new Intel (R) EFI drivers.
- PXE/network boot will no longer fail to try all DHCP servers.
- All USB flash drives are now accessible at EFI using the iLO-2 vMedia feature.
- In previous versions Dual Core Intel (R) 9100 series (Montvale) 1.42 GHz processors are displayed as 1.40 GHz.

System FW 03.01
- Fixed an issue where the wrong PCIe slot status value was being printed out in the MCA log.
- Provides the correct processor status parameter to the cmc error log.
- Directed lanboot now works for this platform.
- In previous releases, an unexpected Trap may occur when PXE boot is not answered.
- Corrected an issue where a nested MCA occurring on a CPU other than the CPU that is reporting
the earlier MCA may not return the platform log.
- Security code now validates the proper ROM (primary).
- Fixed memory address parity detection.
- Fixed a problem with HDD enumeration in SFW that caused some OS loaders to not find required
resources on other partitions in the same HDD. Specifically this was observed with newer EFI
Emulex drivers.

BMC 5.26
- Fixed a condition where very rarely system fans would be run at full speed when environmental conditions do not require it.

BMC FW 05.25
- Fixed an issue introduced in BMC 5.24 where if the battery is removed, NVRAM gets corrupted
and the BMC encounters some uninitialized data that keep the BMC from booting successfully.
- The VGA on some universal IO boards used with rx2660 are not properly translating its interrupt
pin and can interfere with the operation of other PCI devices. This has caused the USB controller
to cause an MCA while booting to EFI. This can be an intermittent failure with RHEL 5.1.

BMC FW 05.24
- Fixed a condition were a certain IPMI command would cause the internal and external health LEDs
to go off until the system is power cycled or SFW is reset.
- Fixed the recovery of information about the enclosure from the MP with RHEL 5.1 .

BMC FW 05.23
- BMC will not fail to write some tokens, which are used to store EFI variables in normal/guest privilege mode.

BMC FW 05.21
- Previously, when the SEL reached 75% capacity the "SEL Almost Full" event was logged. This
was changed to be logged at 95% instead of 75%.
- Power was not being restored automatically after repetitive short AC dropouts.If the power restore
policy is set to "on", the system power is supposed to be turned back on if AC power is lost and
restored to the chassis.Enhancements were made to recover from these short losses of AC power.
- Issue with Front Panel power supply LEDs remaining on after an AC loss recovery has been fixed.
The LEDs were remaining in a failed state even though the system had fully recovered.
- A new power up sequence was introduced to correct an error in powering on PCI-x cards.
- Fixed an issue where BMC may not take the designated programmed action (this can be
configured) when Microsoft Watchdog Timer expires.

iLO-2 MP FW F.02.25
- Fixed an issue where HP-SIM operation would cause the iLO to reset.
- Fixed problem that prevented the entry of "|", "/" and "_" characters from a Japanese keyboard
connected through the iLO-2 Virtual Keyboard feature.
- Fixed an issue where reset could happen when running nMap to scan ports on iLO.
- Enhanced online help to show exactly which ports are used for all iLO functions and opened on the existing firewall .
- Introduced a check to permit only users with console access rights to view the console logs.
- Corrected a situation where the iLO would send false SNMP traps (power on and power off) to the
recipients if the SNMP trap destination is enabled and has been on for more than 3 to 4 days.
- Corrected an issue where the iLO was not sending out all the SNMP traps to its destinations, when
there were multiple SNMP packets to be sent out.
- iLO-2 reset from Web does not log XD_MP_RESET or any event in the iLO-2 event log like an iLO-2 reset from the SSH connection.
- Corrected Handling of Telnet NOP.
- Corrected the iLO-2 event log display of the IP address for ssh exec commands including SMASH commands.
- Fixed a condition that prevented SSH Login in the format "cn=Username,USC".

iLO-2 MP FW F.02.23
- A new note was added requesting user to close all open files on USB key before launching the vMedia/vUSB.
- A long push button reset of MP is provided as a workaround for the issue where "MP is not
