IPF Servers
If the IPF server uses a supported Microsoft Windows operating system, an
alternative method to the Smart Components for updating the firmware is to use the
DVD from the controller kit, as follows:
1. On the main menu of the EFI-based configuration utility on the DVD, select
Maintain Firmware.
2. Select the firmware that you want to update.
3. Follow the on-screen prompts and instructions to complete the firmware updates.
4. Reboot the server for the firmware updates to take effect.
For more information about IPF servers, for technical support, or for updated
