Enhancements/Fixes =================== - Enhancements Description: - Bootcode: * Adding a NVRAM Control bit (offset 0x21C[1]) to enable/disable AutoNeg 1G Half Duplex advertisement on BCM5717/5719/5720 controllers. * Make port flapping avoidance feature available for all systems. - PXE: * Enhance driver to honor new control bit to disable Autoneg @ 1G Half Duplex advertisement on BCM5717/5719/5720 controllers. - Fixes Description: - Fixes an issue when certain adapters may become non-functional when they are updated with the Comprehensive Configuration Management (CCM) Firmware using the firmware smart components. The updated component prevents landing of the CCM Firmware on non-supporting adapters. - FCoE/iSCSI: * Fix system hang seen during early phase of storage ROM initialization on some OEM platforms. * Update to use indirect accesses to fix a boot failure issue seen when device's memory BAR is assigned to 64-bit. - iSCSI: * Fix the boot via Offload path failure seen on RedHat6.5. - Bootcode: * Fix an issue on 5719 chipset caused by lower core clock speed that may cause the device to report "no firmware running" when inbox driver is used. - PXE: * Fix a hang issue caused by PXE on systems with sensor device information when OCSR signature is not valid. Applies to BCM5717/5719/5720 controllers. * Fix an issue where BCV storage ROM might not load correctly on certain platforms. - NCSI: * Fix an issue where the remote KVM session is timed out when power cycle loop is performed for long duration on systems with 5719 or 5717. Table of Contents ================= Introduction Packaging Performing the Firmware Upgrade Firmware Upgrade Log Introduction ============ This file describes the procedure to use for upgrading firmware on HP Gigabit Server Adapters mentioned in the PRODUCTS AFFECTED section of this document. User guides and additional HP Network Adapter information can be found at: http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/networking/index-nic.html Packaging ========= This firmware upgrade utility is released in SCEXE format. The file is a single self-extracting executable that unpacks the component, runs it, and cleans up. This one-step process replaces the rpm format which would require three steps to install, execute and remove. Performing the Firmware Upgrade =============================== 1. This utility requires all the associated ethernet interfaces to be up. You can bring up an ethernet interface by using the following command: # ifup ethx or # ifconfig ethx up 2. Firmware can be upgraded interactively using following command: # ./CPxxxxxx.scexe 3. The help menu lists all available command line options. # ./CPxxxxxx.scexe -h Firmware Upgrade Log ==================== Results of the firmware upgrade are written to nicfwupg.log which gets saved in the current working directory. Note: Please refer to the adapter QuickSpecs for information on supported features. Copyright 2014 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.
