Upgrades the firmware with the Multiboot Image (MBI) file at the adapter level. An
upgrade or downgrade depends on the image version currently in use. This
command forces a firmware upgrade to the version present in the MBI file.
Syntax upgrade
-mbi <filepath and name>
Keywords filepath and name
Directory path to the location of the MBI file and the file name.
Notes After the firmware upgrade, issue the refresh command (see “Refresh” on
page 112) at the host level to confirm the updated MBI version shown in the output
of the info command (see “Information (Adapter)” on page 91) at the adapter
level.
For Dell sourced adapters, use the MBI file found inside the adapter specific
Firmware Upgrade Utility downloaded from the Dell support Web site.
