Updating QLogic firmware/BIOS and applying NVRAM settings
EMC-approved HBA firmware/BIOS must be applied to your HBA
before connecting to, and running I/O on, EMC Storage Arrays.
There are two ways to flash updated firmware/BIOS files to your
HBA:
◆ From QLogic SANsurfer Management Software
◆ From a DOS command prompt.
To use SANsurfer Management Software to update firmware/BIOS
on your HBA when Windows is running, refer to “Updating the flash
BIOS using SANsurfer FC HBA Manager” on page 122 for
instructions.
Note: Current 64-bit systems can on be updated only with QLogic SANsurfer
Management Software.
If you are updating the firmware/BIOS of an HBA installed in a
32-bit system that is not running the SANsurfer software, use the
procedure described in the “Install/upgrade firmware and boot BIOS
from DOS” on page 25.
