H165466: PROCEDURE FOR BACK-LEVELING SERVERAID FIRMWARE/BIOS. TEXT: Procedure for back-leveling ServeRAID Firmware/BIOS. This procedure is meant for allowing the BIOS/Firmware to be back-leveled for customers that are working towards certifying the new level of BIOS/firmware and need the back-level procedure until the certification completes. NOTE: IBM does not recommend back-leveling firmware for a long-term basis. IBM recommends that customers run at the latest level firmware. PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS: - The system is a PC Server, any Type, all Models. - The system is a Netfinity server, any Type, all Models. - The system may be configured with any number of processors. - The system is configured with any of the following options: ServeRAID Adapter FRU p/n06H9334 (Option p/n70G8489) ServeRAID Adapter FRU p/n76H6875 (Option p/n70G8489) ServeRAID-3H Adapter FRU p/n01K7396 (Option p/n01K7207) ServeRAID-3L Adapter FRU p/n01K7352 (Option p/n01K7364) - All Firmware for all ServeRAID Adapters are affected. FIX: - Create the appropriate level ServeRAID BIOS/Firmware diskette. - Delete the following file from the diskette: cphbf.pro - After this file is deleted, the update utility will simply write over whatever ServeRAID BIOS/Firmware is on the adapter without checking its current level.
