Managing Maintenance Entity Firmware for
Processor Switch and I/O Adapter Module (IOAM)
connectivity to NonStop S-series legacy input and output controllers (IOCs) and
storage.
Updating ME Firmware
Table 1-1 shows the current ME firmware information for both processor switches and
IOAMS:
The AAI SPR is available for the Maintenance Entity firmware. This SPR lifts a
restriction for IOAME modules connected to S-series enclosures when T1089ABR
firmware has been installed on the S-series processors.
For the Integrity NonStop NS5000 and Integrity NonStop NS16000 systems only:
Use the OSM Service Connection to update the ME firmware for processor switches.
1. Locate the ServerNet Switch Board on one Internal ServerNet Fabric (in the tree
pane, select System > Fabric Group > Internal ServerNet Fabric > Processor
Switch > ServerNet Switch Board).
2. Right-click the ServerNet Switch Board object and select Actions.

Caution. Ensure that the system is running the new H06.08 RVU before starting this
procedure.
Caution for ME FPGA. You should not use the Multi-Resource Actions dialog (in the OSM
Service Connection) to update ME FPGA simultaneously on both fabrics, or a system outage
might occur.
Caution for ME FW. You should not use the Multi-Resource Actions dialog (in the OSM
Service Connection) to update ME FW simultaneously on both fabrics, or a system outage
might occur.
