Updating the IOM Infrastructure Device Firmware
By performing this update, the firmware for a component of the IOM device is
updated, but not the firmware of the IOM device itself; the component is the
interface circuitry between the IOM device and CMC. The update image for
the component resides in the CMC file system, and the component displays as
an updatable device on the CMC Web GUI only if the current revision on the
component and the component image on CMC do not match.

Click the

button below the IOM component list.
NOTE: The Firmware Image field does not display for an IOM infrastructure
device (IOMINF) target because the required image resides on CMC. CMC
firmware should be updated first, before updating IOMINF firmware.
IOMINF updates are allowed by CMC if it detects that the IOMINF
firmware is out-of-date with the image contained in CMC file system. If
the IOMINF firmware is up-to-date, CMC prevents IOMINF updates.
Up-to-date IOMINF devices are be listed as updatable devices.
