The procedure below assumes the RSA II is set to its factory default values. If the RSA II IP address is no
longer known, it can be set back to the defaults, using the Setup utility, by following the instructions in
the section “Alternate method to update Remote Supervisor Adapter II network configuration to
defaults” on page 27.
Refer to the README file printed earlier during the RSA II firmware download. Use the README file
instructions along with the steps below to perform the firmware update. The README file will contain
any changes necessary to the following instructions. Follow the directions in the README file wherever
differences occur.
Note:
The following steps are performed on the computer containing the update package (not on the
System x or xSeries console):
Update RSA II firmware
Learn how to apply the RSA II firmware update.
Refer to the README file printed earlier during the RSA II firmware download. Use the README file
instructions along with the following steps to perform the firmware update. The README file can
contain any changes necessary to the following instructions. Follow the directions in the README file
wherever differences occur.
Note:
The following steps are performed on the computer containing the update package (not on the
System x or xSeries console):
1.
Set the IP address to a value in the same subnet as the RSA II default IP address of 192.168.70.125.
For example you can set the IP address to 192.168.70.101 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
2.
Extract the files from the .zip file that you downloaded earlier to unpack the firmware update files.
3.
Ensure the System x or xSeries ac power cords are attached to a power source. Refer to System x or
xSeries documentation to complete this step. Wait at least 30 seconds following this step to allow the
RSA II hardware to start.
4.
Open a Web browser. In the address field, type the IP address (192.168.70.125) of the RSA II to which
you want to connect. The
Enter Password
window opens.
5.
Type the user name and password on the
Enter Password
window. The RSA II has a default user
name of
USERID
and password of
PASSW0RD
(where 0 is a zero not the letter O).
6.
Select a timeout value on the next screen and click continue.
7.
If the next window is the
System Status
window, on the navigation pane on the left, under
Tasks
,
click
Firmware Update
. If the RSA II firmware does not support the server on which it is installed, a
warning window stating that the RSA II does not have firmware that supports the server is
displayed. Click
OK
to continue.
8.
At the next display, select
Browse
and navigate to the files containing the firmware update. The files
will have an extension of .PKT; and there might be multiple files with this extension.
9.
Select one of these files, and then click
Open
. The full path of the selected file is displayed in the
Browse field.
10.
To start the update process, click
Update
. A progress indicator opens as the file is transferred to
temporary storage on the Remote Supervisor Adapter II. A confirmation window is displayed when
the file transfer is complete.
11.
Verify that the file shown on the Confirm Firmware Update window is the one you want to update.
If not, click
Cancel
.
12.
To complete the update process, click
Continue
. A progress indicator opens as the firmware on the
Remote Supervisor Adapter II is copied. A confirmation window is displayed when the update
completes.
13.
Repeat the update procedure for any other .PKT files.
