a. Place the Offline Diagnostic CD containing saupdate.efi in the CD drive before
booting the system.
b. Boot the system to the UEFI Shell prompt.
c. Locate the cdrom entry in the list of mapped devices, and change to the device by
entering its associated fs number (for example, fs0) under UEFI Shell prompt.
d. If the UEFI utility is not located in the root directory, move to the directory where the
file is located, for example:
fs0:\> cd \EFI\HP\TOOLS\IO_CARDS\SmartArray
• To run saupdate from the UEFI partition:
a. Download the SA UEFI update utility saupdate.efi and copy it to the UEFI partition.
b. Boot the system to the UEFI Shell and change directories to the UEFI partition.
c. If the UEFI utility is not located in the root directory, move to the directory where the
