**Update BIOS 2.9.4 using individual DUP or obtain from the Latest component firmware versions on Dell.com catalog.
Before updating MX7000, check the PSU version. If the PSU version is 00.36.6B, then update the PSU. For details, see https://
www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=5tc17&oscode=naa&productcode=poweredge-mx7000.
Downgrading OME-Modular is not recommended. OME-Modular firmware downgrade to earlier versions does not
support restoration of any configuration or settings.
NOTE:
Updating the MXG610s FC IOM is not supported from the OME-Modular user interface. Use the Brocade interface
on the IOM.
NOTE: Updating MX9116n or MX5108n using catalog method is not supported. The catalog compliance is reported as
"Unknown".
NOTE: As these update instructions include updates to various components of the solution, there is a possibility of traffic
impact to existing workloads. It is recommended that the updates are applied only during a regular single maintenance
window.
NOTE: Powercycle (cold boot) of the MX7000 chassis after updating all applicable solution components may be necessary
as a last troubleshooting step. For details, see Controlling chassis power.
