HBA Options Menu

(No CLI Option)

The HBA Options Menu provides the following selections:

1.Update BIOS/UEFI [or FCode] Code Image (see page 4-13)

2.Update Firmware Image (see page 4-13)

3.Update ROM Image (see page 4-14)

4.Select HBA Port (see page 4-49)

5.Refresh (see page 4-49)

6.Exit (see page 4-50)

On each submenu, save the changes by typing the number for Save changes and reset HBA, and then pressing ENTER. This saves your changes and resets all ports on the HBA.

To update the firmware with these changes, type the number for Refresh, and then press ENTER. If you do not select this option, your changes will not be visible in SANsurfer iSCSI HBA CLI

Update BIOS/UEFI [or FCode] Code Image

(CLI Option -bootcode)

This menu option varies, depending on your system architecture (automatically detected by SANsurfer iSCSI HBA CLI). Bootcode (that is, the bootable code image) is either BIOS, FCode, or EFI that allows system boot from an iSCSI drive.

Select the Update BIOS/UEFI Image or Update FCode Code Image option to update the bootcode code image, which should be done when QLogic releases a new bootcode with bug fixes or enhancements. At the prompt, type the name of the file containing the bootcode code image to upload to the HBA.

For information on bootcode file names, see Appendix E Downloadable File Names.

Update Firmware Image

(CLI Option -f)

The firmware is the code running on the HBA to perform the tasks involved in data management, the iSCSI protocol, and general HBA functioning.

Select the Update Firmware Image option to update the firmware image. At the prompt, type the name of the file containing the firmware image to upload to the HBA.

For information on firmware file names, see Appendix E Downloadable File Names.
