1.Prepare to run saupdate from the Offline Diagnostics CD or the UEFI partition:

To run saupdate from the Offline Diagnostic CD:

a.Place the Offline Diagnostic CD containing saupdate.efi in the CD drive before booting the system.

b.Boot the system to the UEFI Shell prompt.

c.Locate the cdrom entry in the list of mapped devices, and change to the device by entering its associated fs number (for example, fs0) under UEFI Shell prompt.

d.If the UEFI utility is not located in the root directory, move to the directory where the file is located, for example:

fs0:\>cd \EFI\HP\TOOLS\IO_CARDS\SmartArray

To run saupdate from the UEFI partition:

a.Download the Smart Array UEFI update utility saupdate.efi and copy it to the UEFI partition.

b.Boot the system to the UEFI Shell and change directories to the UEFI partition.

c.If the UEFI utility is not in the root directory, move to the directory where the file is located, for example:

fs0:\>cd \EFI\HP\TOOLS\IO_CARDS\SmartArray

2.Use saupdate LIST to display all detected Smart Array controllers and the active firmware versions. For example:

fs0:\EFI\TOOLS> saupdate list
