Use saupdate from the EFI Shell to update the firmware image on the HP Smart Array controller.

Follow one of these two procedures to run saupdate:

• If you are using saupdate from the Offline Diagnostic CD:

1. Download the firmware and copy it to the EFI partition.

2. Place the Offline Diagnostic CD containing saupdate.efi in the CD drive before booting

the system.

3. Boot the system to the EFI Shell prompt.

4. Locate the cdrom entry in the list of mapped devices, and change to the device by typing

its associated fs number (for example, fs0) under EFI Shell prompt.

5. If the EFI utility and firmware image files are not located in the root directory, move to the

directory in which these files are located, for example:

fs0:\>cd \EFI\HP\TOOLS\IO_CARDS\SmartArray
