Updating controller and enclosure software

The ROM Update wizard guides you through the process of updating the software for your direct attached storage and iSCSI storage devices:

Before you can use the ROM update wizard, you must download the latest software images from your vendor's software support site on the World Wide Web. For direct attached storage devices, the image upgrade files typically come in sets of two or more and have a .ufi file extension. For external storage enclosures, the (single) image upgrade file has a .upgrade file extension.

To update the controller software for direct attached storage or iSCSI storage devices:

  1. In the Enterprise view, click Direct Attached Storage  (direct attached storage object) or iSCSI storage  (iSCSI storage object)

  2. Right-click Update controller images. The ROM Update wizard opens.

  3. Click Next.

  4. Choose the ROM image update files.

  5. Click Next; then, select the controllers or enclosures you want to update.

  6. Click Next; then, review the update summary.

  7. Click Apply. The Adaptec Storage Manager applies the software update to the selected controllers or enclosures.

  8. Restart the server(s) or enclosures to activate the new ROM image.
