firmware, BMC firmware updates only require
a reset of the BMC in the updated Blade
Element. When you perform the Switch to Use
Shadow Firmware Image After Reset action in
OSM (or through the guided procedure), the
BMC is instantly reset, and the Blade Element
starts running the new BMC firmware
immediately. The rest of the updated Blade
Element firmware does not become active
(running) until you reset the Blade Element.
