I need to upgrade my V1280 server firmware. (Solaris 9)
1. How do I know what is the current version? prtdiag -v doesn't show it any more
2. Going to Sunsolve website, I find three *separate* Flash PROM patches:
114527 (5.20.x)
114526 (5.19.x)
114525 (5.18.x)
I normally would like to apply the highest level patch, ie 114527
however I don't know the rational behind having 3 different patches on sunsolve.
3. Can this patch be done on line or I have to run it in the SC mode?
will reboot be required?
Thanks in advance for any input. I will summarize if there is request.
By the way, my V1280 has 2 system boards (SB0 and SB2 running in 1 domain,
has 16 GB of memory, has 8x900 Mhz Ultrasparc III+ cpu:
System Configuration: Sun Microsystems sun4u Sun Fire V1280
System clock frequency: 150 MHZ
Memory size: 16GB
