Updating the iDRAC6 Firmware/System Services Recovery Image

NOTE: If the iDRAC6 firmware becomes corrupted, as could occur if the iDRAC6 firmware update progress is interrupted before it completes, you can recover the iDRAC6 using the iDRAC6 Web interface.

NOTE: The firmware update, by default, retains the current iDRAC6 settings. During the update process, you have the option to reset the iDRAC6 configuration to the factory defaults. If you set the configuration to the factory defaults, you must configure the network using the iDRAC6 Configuration Utility.

1Open the iDRAC6 Web-based interface and log in to the remote system.

2Click Remote Access, and then click the Update tab.

3In the Upload/Rollback (Step 1 of 3) page, click Browse, or type the path to the firmware image that you downloaded from support.dell.com or the System Services recovery image.

NOTE: If you are running Firefox, the text cursor does not appear in the Firmware Image field.

For example:

C:\Updates\V1.0\<image_name>.

OR

\\192.168.1.10\Updates\V1.0\<image_name>

The default firmware image name is firmimg.d6.

4Click Upload.

The file will be uploaded to the iDRAC6. This process may take several minutes to complete.
