Locating firmware
Obtain the firmware by one of the following methods:
• HP technical support might send you an updated mxso-firmware RPM. This installs firmware in /
opt/hp/mxso/firmware. This RPM also updates the revision information used by the exdsmgr
syscheck and exds_stdiag commands. The README.txt file in the directory tells you which
file belongs to which firmware. The files listed in the README.txt file are symlinks to the actual
firmware file. See Table 7 for a list of the symlinks.
• HP technical support might send you a specific firmware file. Install this in the /opt/hp/mxso/
firmware directory.
• HP technical support might ask you to download a file from www.hp.com. Install this in the /opt/
hp/mxso/firmware directory.
