Download iSCSI HBA update for System x or xSeries
Learn when and how to update the iSCSI HBA firmware during the installation process.
You must download the update to ensure you have the exact level of BIOS and firmware specified in
theSystem i documentation. Do this regardless of what BIOS version is currently present on the iSCSI
HBA.
Once the iSCSI HBA is installed and the operating system is installed and running on the System x or
xSeries server, updates are applied through i5/OS integration service pack PTFs.
Restriction:
The following procedure is only for use during the installation of the iSCSI HBA.
Unpredictable results might occur if you attempt this procedure on an installed and running iSCSI HBA.
