Updating PERC Firmware
If you have multiple PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller (PERC) cards
installed on a system, you may need to run the SUU update more than once
to update the firmware of all PERC cards. This procedure ensures that all
PERC cards are updated if one or more cards failed to update during the
initial SUU update.
PERC update packages may fail if other activities, such as a consistency check
or background initialization (BGI) are running on the controller. Ensure that
such activities are not in progress before running the update package.
Restarting the System Inventory in the Same Session
SUU does not allow you to restart the system inventory in the same session if
there is insufficient space in the var or tmp folder.
In Linux, if the space is not enough in the var or tmp folder, SUU displays the
following error message:
Not enough space available in /var or /tmp folder.
Please make sure you have atleast 100MB.
Ensure that you have sufficient space in the var or tmp folder and restart SUU
to start the system inventory.
Running SUU From a Network Location
• When SUU is running from a network location and is performing a system
inventory, if you get disconnected from the network, SUU displays a blank
Comparison Report. To view the contents of the Comparison Report,
ensure that you are connected to the network and restart SUU.
• When SUU is running from a network location and the Comparison
Report is displayed, if you get disconnected from the network and then
click the
Update button, SUU does not update any components. To
update components, ensure that you are connected to the network and
restart SUU.
