NOTE: The sysrev command output on some systems includes extra zeros in the system
firmware version number. These zeros can be ignored. For example, 3.88 and 3.088 on
Integrity systems are the same firmware version, also 23.1 and 23.001 on HP 9000 systems
represent the same firmware version.
3. The system firmware is the main component of the firmware recipe required to support PCI
Error Recovery. If you do not have the minimum system firmware version (or a later version)
listed in the PCI Error Recovery Support Matrix (http://www.hp.com/go/
hpux-networking-docs in the HP-UX 11i v3 Networking Software category.), you
do not have a firmware recipe installed on your system that supports PCI Error Recovery.
Go to the Business Support Center Web site at http://www.hp.com/go/bizsupport for the
latest HP-UX 11i firmware updates. The IT Resource Center (ITRC) Web site at http://
itrc.hp.com also provides a link to the Business Support Center.
The system firmware files, installation instructions, and release notes with detailed firmware
version information can be obtained by selecting Download Drivers and Software. This provides
a searchable database for various products, or you can follow the Server link to select the
latest FW download for your specific server product.
Be sure to read the Release Notes for the firmware to ensure a successful update.
4. To confirm if PCI Error Recovery is supported with your I/O card driver, see PCI Error
Recovery Support Matrix, HP-UX 11i v3 at: http://www.hp.com/go/hpux-iocards-docs in the
HP-UX 11i v3 I/O Cards section.
