9.2.1 Updating the Firmware on an Intel System
To update your firmware on an Intel system, follow these steps:
1. With the system running, insert the latest RAID Array 200 Standalone
Configuration Utility diskette for Intel Systems into your floppy drive.
2. Enter either of the following commands depending on whether you have
single or multiple RAID controllers.
For a single RAID controller, type:
A:\SWXCR> SWXCRFW xxxx.xxx
where xxxx.xxx is the firmware filename (typically, SWXCRFWA, for
EISA; SWXCRFWP, for PCI) and version of the firmware that you want to
load: SWXCRFWA.215 (EISA), SWXCRFWP.219 (PCI), for example.
NOTE
If you have both EISA and PCI controllers to
update, perform the next step for the EISA
controller(s) first.
For multiple controllers, either EISA or PCI, type:
A:\SWXCR> SWXCRFW -v xxx
where xxx is the version of the firmware, 215 for EISA, or 219 for PCI.
After you enter either form of the command, the system displays messages
similar to the following:
