Firmware
The Firmware tab indicates whether the firmware of a component is outdated. If the specific firmware
requires that you reboot after installing the update, a message instructing you to reboot the
messaging system appears. Since the tool does not connect to the Internet to identify new firmware,
you must periodically check the HP support web page and download new firmware when available.
Be sure to check the Firmware tab on each server blade. Some firmware updates must be made
on both server blades.
IMPORTANT: If a firmware update requires a reboot, you must reboot your messaging system
manually. For more information about firmware updates, see“Upgrading a component's firmware”
(page 62).
