NOTE: You need to have ME FW 3.05 or later installed for the SSB Temp sensor to work properly. ============================================================================= INSTALLATION PROCEDURE ============================================================================= 1. Ensure BMC FW release 01.46 or later and BIOS 1.01.009 or later are pre-installed before attempting this FRU/SDR update. 2. Copy all of the files and directories in the S2600WT_FRUSDR_117.zip archive to a USB key, hard disk drive or floppy drive. 3. If the board FRU information has not been previously programmed, then default FRU information must be programmed before the update is started. This is done with the following command: frusdr.efi /fru s2600wtt.fru (10G network boards) frusdr.efi /fru s2600wt2.fru (1G network boards) frusdr.efi /fru s2600wttr.fru (BDW CPU) 4. Execute the following script to bring up the main FRU/SDR load menu: updS2600WT.nsh 5. Select Option 1 or 3 to do the SDR update. 6. The package should do an auto-config. If it does not, it will print an error message indicating why auto-detection failed and then present the standard chassis selection menu. ============================================================================= KNOWN ISSUES/WORKAROUNDS ============================================================================= ============================================================================= ISSUES FIXED ============================================================================= S2600WT_118: - 1506972278: Fail to change fan offset from BIOS setup page or command S2600WT_117: - None.
