Updating the FCode
NOTE: The SANblade Manager update FCode feature is available only on Solaris
SPARC systems. It is not available on Windows NT, Windows 2000,
NetWare, or Red Hat Linux (the Update FCode button does not display
on the Utilities tabbed page).
Perform the following steps to update the FCode:
1. In the SANblade Manager main menu HBA tree, select the adapter.
2. Click the Utilities tab. The Utilities tabbed page displays (see figure 11-6).

3. Click the Update FCode button.
4. Click the Select Input File button to select the file from which to update. Make
sure you select the correct file. It must end with a .prom extension. Note that
FCode files are unique to each HBA model.
CAUTION!
Using the wrong file can render the HBA and the OS unusable.
5. After selecting the file, click the Update button to update the FCode.
Once the FCode is updated, the status is displayed in the Update Status box at the
bottom of the page.
