Remote Supervisor Adapter firmware update To update the Remote Supervisor Adapter (RSA), use the IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter utility. This allows you to do the following: Update the Remote Supervisor Adapter. Configure the Remote Supervisor Adapter. Update the RXE-100 Expansion Enclosure. The utility is not a default part of EFI configuration, it may be located on the media shipped with the server but it is always better to check for the latest version that can be downloaded from the x455 driver page: http://www.pc.ibm.com/qtechinfo/MIGR-53575.html Unlike the Flash Update utility, which requires update files to be in the root directory of an available file system, the Remote Supervisor Adapter update files can reside in any directory on an accessible file system, but the update program (FLASH2.EFI) and data files must reside in the same directory. The following files are required to be in the same directory to successfully update the Remote Supervisor Adapter and RXE-100: FLASH2.EFI CNETBRUS.PKT CNETMNUS.PKT CNETRGUS.PKT DMCFLASH.PKT IIOEFLSH.PKT IIOEFLPB.PKT Flash update executable System Management Adapter Boot ROM System Management Adapter Main Application Remote Graphics Application Integrated System Management Processor Application RXE-100 Remote Expansion Enclosure Application RXE-100 Power Backplane Application Tip: Attach the RXE-100 before starting the Remote Supervisor Adapter firmware update so it will be updated at the same time. To apply the Remote Supervisor Adapter (and RXE-100) updates, follow these steps: 1. Enter the EFI shell from the EFI Frimware Boot Manager menu. 2. Navigate to the folder that contains FLASH2.EFI and the update files. 3. At the EFI shell command line, type flash2 and press Enter. The main window is displayed. 116 IBM xSeries 455 Planning and Installation Guide Eserver
