Updating the flash BIOS using SANsurfer FC HBA Manager
WARNING
Changing flash BIOS incorrectly can cause serious damage to your
system.
Perform the following steps to update the flash BIOS:
1. In the SAN
SANSurfer FC HBA Manager main menu HBA tree,
select the adapter.
If you want to configure multiple adapters with the same settings,
hold the CTRL key while selecting multiple adapters. The
adapters must be in the same series:
QLA231x HBAs, QLA234x HBAs, QLA246x HBAs, QLE246x
HBAs, or QLA22xx HBAs.
Note: Only the Settings (Adapter Settings and Advanced Adapter
Settings) and Utilities tabbed pages can be configured for multiple
adapters; therefore, the remaining tabbed pages do not display when
multiple adapters are selected.
2. Click the Utilities tab. The Utilities page displays (see Figure 76
on page 123).
IMPORTANT
If you selected multiple adapters, the Save Flash and Save
NVRAM radio buttons do not display. These options cannot be
performed with multiple adapters. Some versions of
SANsurfer may have buttons referring to Flash, Option ROM,
or Boot Code. These all refer to the HBA BIOS.
