How to Verify Your Firmware Version
Checking Workstation Firmware Version
Follow these steps to check workstation firmware version prior to
migrating to HP-UX 11i v1:
Step 1. As root, shut down the system:
rp8400 Release
Version 6.0
b,e
PDC rev. 17.049
MP rev. 4.013
PF_CKEYMAT0600
Not Customer Installable
Superdome Release
Version 5.1
c
PDC rev. 36.5
MP rev. 7.30
Not Customer Installable
a. Starting with firmware revsion 42.03, the software id (SWID) was
calculated incorrectly. Firmware revision 42.19 corrects this error and
calculates the SWID correctly. The incorrect SWID prevents the
intallation of HP-UX 11.00 Predictive.
b. Added boot, swap and dump support for the following PCI I/O cards:
A6826A: PCI 2 Port 2GB FibreChannel Card
A7173A: PCI-X 2 Port Ultra320 SCSI Card
A9782A: PCI-X 2GB FC/1000Base-SX (Fibre) Combo Card
A9784A: PCI-X 2GB FC/1000Base-T (Copper) Combo Card
c. Added boot, swap and dump support for A7143A Raid U160 Card (This
new card is not supported on rp8400 and SuperDome servers)
d. Added support for CPU product numbers A6152B and A6805B.
e. This firmware is required for enabling systems to use the new Server
Expansion Unit (SEU - see the HP-UX 11i v1 Release Notes for more
information). Current rp8400 customers wishing to add the SEU to
their existing server musts replace the Core I/O boards in the main
chassis with next-generation Core I/O boards (A7109-60001)
