Cisco UCS C-Series Servers Upgrade Guide for Intel E5-2600 v2/E5-2400 v2 Series CPUs
OL-28629-01
Upgrading Cisco UCS C-Series Servers to Intel E5-2600/E5-2400 v2 Series CPUs
Use the following procedure to upgrade the replacement server BIOS to the required version:
Step 1 After you transfer the Intel E5-2600/E5-2400 v2 Series CPUs (and other components) to the replacement
server, power on the replacement server.
Note The server does not boot because the BIOS is an earlier version than that required for the new
CPUs.
The Cisco Host Upgrade Utility (HUU) that is normally recommended for upgrading the CIMC and
BIOS cannot be used when the CPUs are non-bootable. However, the HUU ISO image contains a Zip
file that has the images required for updating the server through a browser. Continue with the following
steps to upgrade the server BIOS to the minimum version for your server (or later) by using a browser.
Step 2 Download the HUU ISO file for your minimum release (or later) from Cisco.com and save it on a laptop
or other computer.
Use the instructions in the Cisco Host Upgrade Utility User Guide for your release.
Step 3 Mount the ISO image.
Step 4 Extract the Zip file that is contained within the ISO image.
Note To determine the IP address of the target server so that you can log in to its CIMC, you must
connect the server to a DHCP-enabled network, as described in the next step.
Step 5 Determine the IP address of the target server that you are upgrading:
a. Look at the physical MAC address label for the dedicated management port or the LOM1 port,
depending on which port is enabled by default in the target server.
b. Connect an Ethernet cable for your DHCP-enabled network to the dedicated management port or the
LOM 1 port.
Your DHCP server assigns an IP address to the port.
c. Query your DHCP server based on the MAC address of the port that you connected. The IP address
of the port that corresponds to the MAC address is listed.
Step 6 Use the CIMC GUI in a browser to log in as administrator on the IP address of the target server.
Step 7 Use the CIMC GUI to install and activate the CIMC minimum version for your server (or later).
Use the procedures in the Cisco UCS C-Series Integrated Management Controller GUI Configuration
Guide for your release.
Caution When you install new BIOS firmware, it must be from the same software release as the CIMC firmware
running on the server. Do not install new BIOS firmware until after you have activated the matching
CIMC firmware or the server will not boot.
Step 8 While logged in as administrator, use the CIMC GUI to install the BIOS minimum version for your
server (or later).
Use the procedures in the Cisco UCS C-Series Integrated Management Controller GUI Configuration
Guide for your release.
