Disk firmware upgrade

  • Follow


Can anyone tell me if it is possible to upgrade the firmware of a fibre
channel (FC-AL) disk on a V880 (running Solaris 9). Running 'iostat -En'
returns for example:

....
c2t5d0          Soft Errors: 0 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0
Vendor: SEAGATE  Product: ST373307FSUN72G  Revision: 0207 Serial No:
0242B09X65
Size: 73.40GB <73400057856 bytes>
Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 0 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0
....

It is the 'Revision:' I was looking at,

Thanks,

Richard

Yes, see patch 109962-12

which contains:

	ST373307F.0307.fw

(the 0307 firmware)

Is it possible to apply these patches to non-Sun branded disks,
provided the model numbe is the same?
