Updating Controller and Disk Drive Firmware
Note: This task is recommended for advanced users only.
maxView Storage Manager includes a wizard to help you update the rmware on the controllers and
disk drives in your storage space. The wizard updates the rmware for devices of the same type on the
local or a remote system.
For example, if your storage space includes disk drives from two different manufactures, you must
update the rmware for each manufacturer's drives separately by running the wizard twice. Additionally,
if you have more than one system in your storage space, you must run the wizard for each system
separately.
To update the rmware on the controllers and disk drives in your storage space, review the prerequisites
in Before You Begin on page 84, then follow one of these sets of instructions:
• Updating the Controller Firmware on page 84
• Updating the Disk Drive Firmware on page 87
Before You Begin
Before you begin, download the latest rmware images from the Adaptec Web site at www.adaptec.com,
or from your vendor's support site on the World Wide Web. Controller images come in sets of one or
more les and have a .ufi le extension. Disk drive image le names vary by manufacturer.
Updating the Controller Firmware
Use the Firmware Update wizard to update the rmware for one or more controllers of the same type
on the local or a remote system.
To update the controller rmware:
1. In the Enterprise View, select a system.
2. On the ribbon, in the System group, click FW Update.
3. When the wizard opens, select Controller, then click Next.
