Updating CMC firmware using web interface

1. In the left pane, go to any of the following pages:
   • Chassis Overview > Update
   • Chassis Overview > Chassis Controller > Update
2. On the Firmware Update page, in the CMC Firmware section, select the required components under the Update Targets column for the CMC you want to update, and then click Apply CMC Update.
3. In the Firmware Image field, enter the path to the firmware image file on the management station or shared network, or click Browse to browse through to the file location. The default name of the CMC firmware image file is fx2_cmc.bin.
4. Click Begin Firmware Update, and then click Yes. The Firmware Update Progress section provides firmware update status information. A status indicator displays on the page while the image file is uploaded. File transfer time varies based on the connection speed. When the internal update process begins, the page automatically refreshes and the Firmware update timer is displayed. For more information about the various firmware status, see Online Help.
5. For the CMC, during the final phases of the firmware update process, the browser session and connection with CMC is lost temporarily because the CMC is not connected to the network. You must log in after a few minutes, when the CMC has restarted. After CMC resets, the new firmware version is displayed on the Firmware Update page.
   NOTE After the firmware update, delete the files from the web browser cache. For instructions about clearing the browser cache, see the web browser’s online help.
