System Software Requirements

Verifying that your system meets the documented requirements will ensure a successful update and provide the most reliable system functionality after the update has completed.

  • System BIOS: production version R01.02.0003 or later
  • BMC Firmware: production version 2.42 or later
  • CPLD: production version V3P2 or later

Important notes

  • If an issue is encountered while attempting to install R01.02.0004 on Windows* OS, please manually uninstall the old version of the Sysfwupdt driver from your system, and then run the startup.bat file again
  • From BIOS R01.02.0004, the user must add the parameter 'UpdateNvram' in the BIOS script before performing a firmware downgrade to lower versions
  • Please refer to the respective "Release Notes" files for a complete list of known issues, workarounds, and detailed requirements.
  • The firmware check is not applicable; hence, updates will be triggered even when the versions in the system and in the SFUP package are the same.
  • Do NOT interrupt, reboot, or remove power from your system during the update process. Doing so may render your system inoperable.
  • Do NOT attempt to down rev the system software once loaded onto the system. Doing so may render your system inoperable.
  • All updates provided in this package are installed using the Windows* and Linux* operating environments only.
  • Do not modify any of the script files. The scripts, as written, will provide the most reliable update experience.
  • Refer to the user guide, which is available in the sysfwupdt folder for any update scenarios or sysfwupdt commands.
  • The ITK ".cap" file needs to be customized; otherwise ".cap file" update will fail.
