■ ConnectX and ConnectX-2: 2.7.0 and later
It requires option ROM 2.8.7 to support SAN boot. If your firmware and XgBoot
versions are as shown above, you can skip Step 2.
2. On your Linux host server, upgrade the HCA firmware and the option ROM if
necessary.
a. If you haven’t already done so, log in as root to the host server.
b. Upgrade the Xsigo HCA firmware package on the server.
Note – Replace xsigo-hca-firmware_2.8.7.i386.rpm with the Xsigo host
driver for your server. Supported host drivers for each operating system are listed in
the release notes.
c. Run xg_config to upgrade the firmware and option ROM.
d. If you are using SAN boot or might decide to in the future, select option 2.
Otherwise, select option 1.
In the following screen output example, option 2 was selected:
rpm -Uvh <xsigo-hca-firmware_2.8.7.i386.rpm>
