Installing and Configuring the HBA Driver

Updating Using a DOS To update using a DOS boot diskette, follow these steps: Boot Diskette

The QLogic CD-ROM contains the latest EMC-approved BIOS and NVRAM settings files at the time of creation of the CD-ROM. If more recent files exist, you can find them on the QLogic website. Refer to Downloading QLogic Drivers and Firmware on page 2-2.

1.Format a 3.5-inch diskette and extract the BIOS and NVRAM files from the archive file (.zip or self-extracting .exe) onto the diskette.

2.Reboot your Windows host system using a DOS diskette.

3.At the A:\> prompt, insert the diskette that contains the QLogic BIOS files (created in step 1).

!CAUTION

Do not attempt to run this procedure from a command prompt window.

To load firmware/BIOS and NVRAM settings, type

FLASUTIL.EXE /L /F and press ENTER:

To load NVRAM settings only, type FLASUTIL.EXE /L and press ENTER:

Some BIOS archives will have QL2XUTIL.EXE instead of

FLASUTIL.EXE. Run QL2XUTIL.EXE as you would FLASUTIL.EXE.

Also, some BIOS versions might require the /N parameter (which allows an alternate NVRAM filename to be specified) to load the NVRAM file correctly.

Example: FLASUTIL /L /F /N NVRAM23o.DAT

Refer to the readme.txt file in the firmware package for complete instructions on the use of the FLASUTIL.EXE utility

4.When the procedure has finished, remove the diskette and reboot the host.
