HPE BladeSystem c-Class OA Firmware

Version 4.85
Previous Version of Firmware
Version 4.80
Firmware Dependency
For firmware compatibility information,see the HP Service Pack for ProLiant Information Libraryat:
https://www.hpe.com/servers/spp/documentation
Important Notes
Starting OA 4.50 release, a standardized code signing and validation mechanism has been introduced to enhance the firmware image authenticity.
For customers using Firmware ROM image to upgrade OA:
For OA with firmware version less than 3.50, first update to OA 3.50 and then continue updating to OA 4.50 or above.
For customers using Smart Components to upgrade OA:
OA firmware update mechanisms which rely on HP Smart Components (example: EFM), will not be affected by this change. The Smart Component will automatically perform the intermediate upgrade to OA 3.50 before performing the OA 4.50 or above upgrade.
Flash Disaster Recovery to a version of firmware 4.50 or above issupported. The behavior is seen due to the implementation of a new firmware image signing mechanism in OA firmware version 4.50 and above, which causes the FDR mechanism to see the firmware image as an invalid image.
The workaround for this is to use Flash Disaster Recovery procedure to recover to a version of firmware prior to 4.50 and then do a firmware upgrade to the intended version (4.50 or later).
The OA only supports SPP ISO images that are less than 4GB in size, whether hosted directly via the Enclosure DVD feature or an attached USB key, or mounted remotely via a specified URL. If an ISO image exceeds 4 GB, the CLI SHOW FIRMWARE MANAGEMENT command displays ISO URL Status as “Invalid URL.”
If an SPP ISO image exceeds 4 GB, it is necessary to create a custom ISO image that excludes components unnecessary to the OA EFM blade firmware update process. At a minimum, the custom ISO must contain the firmware components for HP ProLiant BL servers. (When using HP SUM to create the custom ISO image, select Firmware as the Component Type, and select HP ProLiant BL Series as the Server Type.) For information about creating a custom ISO image compatible for OA EFM functionality, see the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator User Guide. More HP SUM information can be found via HP Smart Update Manager online help or at the HP Smart Update Enterprise Information Library (http://www.hpe.com/info/hpsum/documentation).
Onboard Administrator 4.40 has received FIPS 140-2 Certification. For more information, see the NIST CSRC Cryptographic Module Validation Program webpage (http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/140val-all.htm#2587)
When the Enable DHCPv6, Enable Router Advertisements, or Enable SLAAC enclosure IPv6 settings are disabled on the Onboard Administrator, the respective DHCPv6 or SLAAC addresses of the iLOs in the enclosure are retained until these addresses expire automatically based on their respective configurations. A manual reset of the iLO releases these addresses immediately.

This smart component is a self-extracting executable. The smart component unpacks itself, flashes the firmware on the HPE BladeSystem c-Class Onboard Administrator, and cleans up.
The general command line syntax for this smart component is
cpxxxxxx.exe /target <netAddress> /user <username> /passwd <password> [/s[ilent]] [/f[orce]] [/logdir <path>]
where cpxxxxxx.exe represents the filename of the component
NOTE: All arguments and information enclosed in brackets are optional. If required arguments are not included on the command line, you will be prompted to provide the input.

HPE BladeSystem c-Class OA Firmware
Release Version
Version 4.85
Previous Version of Firmware
Version 4.80
Firmware Dependency
For firmware compatibility information,see the HP Service Pack for ProLiant Information Libraryat:
https://www.hpe.com/servers/spp/documentation
Important Notes
Starting OA 4.50 release, a standardized code signing and validation mechanism has been introduced to enhance the firmware image authenticity.
For customers using Firmware ROM image to upgrade OA:
For OA with firmware version less than 3.50, first update to OA 3.50 and then continue updating to OA 4.50 or above.
For customers using Smart Components to upgrade OA:
OA firmware update mechanisms which rely on HP Smart Components (example: EFM), will not be affected by this change. The Smart Component will automatically perform the intermediate upgrade to OA 3.50 before performing the OA 4.50 or above upgrade.
Flash Disaster Recovery to a version of firmware 4.50 or above issupported. The behavior is seen due to the implementation of a new firmware image signing mechanism in OA firmware version 4.50 and above, which causes the FDR mechanism to see the firmware image as an invalid image.
The workaround for this is to use Flash Disaster Recovery procedure to recover to a version of firmware prior to 4.50 and then do a firmware upgrade to the intended version (4.50 or later).
The OA only supports SPP ISO images that are less than 4GB in size, whether hosted directly via the Enclosure DVD feature or an attached USB key, or mounted remotely via a specified URL. If an ISO image exceeds 4 GB, the CLI SHOW FIRMWARE MANAGEMENT command displays ISO URL Status as “Invalid URL.”
If an SPP ISO image exceeds 4 GB, it is necessary to create a custom ISO image that excludes components unnecessary to the OA EFM blade firmware update process. At a minimum, the custom ISO must contain the firmware components for HP ProLiant BL servers. (When using HP SUM to create the custom ISO image, select Firmware as the Component Type, and select HP ProLiant BL Series as the Server Type.) For information about creating a custom ISO image compatible for OA EFM functionality, see the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator User Guide. More HP SUM information can be found via HP Smart Update Manager online help or at the HP Smart Update Enterprise Information Library (http://www.hpe.com/info/hpsum/documentation).
Onboard Administrator 4.40 has received FIPS 140-2 Certification. For more information, see the NIST CSRC Cryptographic Module Validation Program webpage (http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/140val-all.htm#2587)
When the Enable DHCPv6, Enable Router Advertisements, or Enable SLAAC enclosure IPv6 settings are disabled on the Onboard Administrator, the respective DHCPv6 or SLAAC addresses of the iLOs in the enclosure are retained until these addresses expire automatically based on their respective configurations. A manual reset of the iLO releases these addresses immediately.

2. Download the RPM to a directory on your hard drive and change to that directory.
3. To install or upgrade the driver, type the following command at the prompt:
# rpm -Uvh qlgc-qla2xxx-<version>.<OSupdate>.x86_64.rpm
Example: # rpm -Uvh qlgc-qla2xxx-4.6.28-20.sles12sp2.x86_64.rpm
4. When the installation or upgrade is complete without any failure, please reboot the server for changes to take effect.
IMPORTANT: If the installation fails or if you see any warning or error messages, STOP, do NOT reboot the computer. The driver will not be operational and you must uninstall the driver by typing the following command:
# rpm -e qlgc-qla2xxx-<version>.<OSupdate>.x86_64.rpm
Note: Irrespective of the kernel version or type used, the "mlnx-ofa_kernel-4.3" RPM must be installed to enable the user space functionality for RoCE. The RoCE user space library RPM (mlnx-ofa_kernel) may conflict with the OpenMPI RPMs included with the OS distribution.This is a known behavior. Insure that the OpenMPI RPMs from the Linux distribution are not installed on the target node prior to the installation of "mlnx-ofa_kernel". If already installed, uninstall any OpenMPI distribution RPMs before installing HPE Mellanox RoCE driver packages.
To install or upgrade the driver:
If using 4.4.21-69-default kernel or any future errata:
# rpm -Uvh mlnx-ofa_kernel-kmp-default-4.3_k4.4.21_69-OFED.4.3.1.0.1.1.g8509e41.sles12sp2.x86_64.rpm mlnx-ofa_kernel-4.3-OFED.4.3.1.0.1.1.g8509e41.3.sles12sp2.x86_64.rpm
Setup is now complete. Reboot your computer for the driver to take effect.
The libibverb package must be installed on the target system prior to the installation of the RoCE library. If not already present, the libibverb package can be obtained from the operating system installation media.
