Storage enclosure I/O module
CAUTION: Take care of the following prerequisite measures before performing a firmware update
operation on the enclosure I/O module:
• To avoid spurious failure indications and potential system crashes, you must suspend hardware
monitoring during the update process. You should execute hpspmonControl --pause on
both servers in the couplet before performing the flash operation. You should then make sure
to execute hpspmonControl --resume on both servers in the couplet after the flash
operation is complete.
• Do not cycle power or restart devices during a firmware update.
• Ensure that the storage system configuration is not being reconfigured during a firmware
update.
