SAS-1/SAS-2 Compatibility
Upgrade Instructions
This document provides information on compatibility requirements for a server
module with a SAS-2 RAID Expansion Module (REM) in a Sun Blade 6000 Modular
System chassis that has SAS-1 Network Express Modules (NEMs), or SAS-1 NEMs
and Sun Blade 6000 Disk Modules (which are SAS-1 devices).
You must perform the firmware upgrade procedure in this document before inserting
your server module with a SAS-2 REM into a SAS-1 system chassis.
Note – Refer to your device’s documentation to determine its SAS level.
Alternatively, you can identify SAS-1 and SAS-2 devices by the maximum data
transfer speeds supported by the devices. SAS-1 devices support a maximum data
transfer speed of 3 Gb per second. SAS-2 devices support a maximum data transfer
speed of 6 Gb per second.
The following topics are covered:
■ “Overview” on page 1
■ “System Requirements for the SAS-1/SAS-2 Compatibility Upgrade” on page 2
■ “Upgrading Disk Module and SAS-NEM Expander Firmware” on page 4
Overview
A server module with a SAS-2 REM might hang when inserted into a Sun Blade 6000
Modular System chassis under the following conditions:
■ If the chassis contains SAS-1 NEMs, such as:
■ Sun Blade 6000 Multi-Fabric Network Express Module
2 Book Title without trademarks, or an abbreviated book title • March 2011
■ Sun Blade 6000 Virtualized Multi-Fabric 10GbE Network Express Module
■ If the chassis contains Sun Blade 6000 Disk Modules (SAS-1 devices)
To ensure optimal system performance and avoid the potential for a system hang,
you need to upgrade the SAS expander firmware of all SAS-1 NEMs and Sun Blade
6000 Disk Modules in the chassis to the latest available firmware update that
supports SAS-1/SAS-2 coexistence.
The Sun Blade X6270 M2 is an example of a server module that ships with a SAS-2
REM. If you install a SAS-2 REM into a server module that previously did not have
one, you will need to perform this upgrade before installing the server module into
the chassis. Refer to your product documentation to determine whether your server
module includes a SAS-2 REM (for more on available SAS-2 REMs, refer to “System
Requirements for the SAS-1/SAS-2 Compatibility Upgrade” on page 2).
After performing the SAS-1/SAS-2 compatibility upgrade, the server module with
the SAS-2 REM will be supported in the SAS-1 chassis with the following conditions:
■ The SAS-2 server module will function properly in the chassis and be able to use
its own internal SAS-2 storage and its PCIe Express Modules (EMs).
■ The SAS-2 server module will be able to use the network component of SAS-1
NEMs.
■ The SAS-2 server module cannot use disks in a Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module (a
SAS-1 device). This is an unsupported configuration.
■ The SAS-2 server module must be installed in a chassis slot that does not have a
Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module in an adjacent slot.
System Requirements for the
SAS-1/SAS-2 Compatibility Upgrade
Currently available SAS-1 NEMs and disk modules that include SAS expanders that
require the SAS-1/SAS-2 compatibility upgrade are listed below.
■ Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module (B18-AA)
■ Sun Blade 6000 Multi-Fabric Network Express Module (X4212A)
■ Sun Blade 6000 10GbE Multi-Fabric Network Express Module (X4236A)
■ Sun Blade 6000 Virtualized Multi-Fabric 10GbE Network Express Module (X4238)
In addition, if your device contains an Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM)
service processor, it might also require an upgrade to match the new expander
firmware.
Chapter 1 SAS-1/SAS-2 Compatibility Upgrade Instructions 3
TABLE 1-1 lists the currently available server module SAS-2 REMs affected by this
issue, and the minimum required SAS-1/SAS-2 compatibility firmware for SAS-1
devices to fix the issue.
Proceed to “Upgrading Disk Module and SAS-NEM Expander Firmware” on page 4
for instructions on performing the upgrade.
List of SAS-1 Server Modules That Are
Compatible With SAS-2 Upgrade
TABLE 1-2 lists server modules equipped with either an LSI SAS-1 on-board chip or a
supported SAS-1 REM HBA that you can use to perform the SAS-1/SAS-2
compatibility upgrade. Since the upgrade to the affected SAS-1 devices (NEMs and
disk modules) must be done through the SAS-1 bus, the server module(s) at which
the upgrade will be performed must have one of the supported HBAs.

▼ Upgrade Disk Module and SAS-NEM Firmware
Using the fwupdate Utility
The Hardware Management Pack 2.0.1 includes a firmware update command-line
tool that works across platforms (x86/64 and SPARC) and operating systems (Oracle
Solaris, Windows, Linux). You must use this tool to perform the SAS-1/SAS-2
coexistence firmware upgrade. It is recommended that you stop all SAS I/O traffic
before performing the SAS-NEM firmware upgrade.
Note – Upgrading SAS-NEM and disk module firmware can disrupt SAS I/O traffic
throughout the chassis. Plan on performing the SAS-NEM firmware upgrade at a
time when you can temporarily stop host to disk module I/O. Performing the
upgrade while booted from the disk module is not supported.
Before You Begin:
■ Ensure complete backup of your data is available. Use lsiutil to make snapshot
backups of all LSI HBAs attached to Disk Module. For more information, see
Appendix a.
■ If your chassis has Sun Blade 6000 Disk Modules installed, download the
appropriate Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module software package from the Oracle
download site to each server module equipped with a SAS-1 REM that is slot-
paired with a Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module. See “Obtain the Latest Disk Module
and SAS-NEM Expander Firmware for SAS-1/SAS-2 Coexistence” on page 5.
■ Download the appropriate SAS-1 NEM software package to a server module. If
you have Sun Blade 6000 Disk Modules installed, download it to one server
module equipped with a SAS-1 REM that is slot-paired with a Sun Blade 6000
Disk Module. See “Obtain the Latest Disk Module and SAS-NEM Expander
Firmware for SAS-1/SAS-2 Coexistence” on page 5.
■ Download the Oracle Hardware Management Pack 2.0.1 version required (several
OS versions are available) to a server module. If you have Sun Blade 6000 Disk
Modules installed, download it to each server module equipped with a SAS-1
REM that is slot-paired with a Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module. Extract the archive
file and run the component installer to install the fwupdate tool. See “Obtain the
Firmware Update Utility to Deploy the Required Expander Firmware” on page 6.
Note – The fwupdate tool and firmware image files must be copied to and run
from servers in the chassis. They cannot be run from a network share.
If available, start at a server module slot-paired with a Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module,
then do the following:
1. Open a terminal or command prompt at the host.
8 Book Title without trademarks, or an abbreviated book title • March 2011
Note – You must be logged in with root permission level to run fwupdate
commands on Unix-based platforms, or Administrator permission level for
Windows platforms. These instructions can be used on servers running Oracle
Solaris, Linux, or Windows.
2. Change directories to where the fwupdate tool is located.
Note – It is not necessary to change directories if fwupdate is in your search path.
Chapter 1 SAS-1/SAS-2 Compatibility Upgrade Instructions 9
3. Identify the SAS expanders by entering the command:
fwupdate list all
All controllers, expanders, and connected devices are listed. Expanders for both
the SAS-NEMs and the slot-paired disk module will be identified. Make a note of
all the expander IDs.
Example output might look like this:
The following expander components must be upgraded:
■ Network Express Module (NEM) expanders:
■ The expander manufacturing image
■ The expander firmware
■ Disk module expanders (both Master and Slave):
■ The expander manufacturing image
■ The expander firmware

Note – It can take up to 2 minutes to upgrade expander firmware on each disk
module.
Note – Though not recommended, if you later attempt to downgrade your expander
firmware, it must be done in the reverse order listed above (disk module expanders
first, then NEM expanders).
4. Upgrade the expander firmware of the SAS-1 disk module or NEM as follows:
a. Rename the manufacturing image from
/path/mfgImageCust03x.5.04.03.bin to mfgImageCust03x.bin.
Where x is a variable that is determined by the name of the image file for the
specific NEM expander being upgraded. For manufacturing image file names
for SAS-1 NEMs, see
TABLE 1-3.
b. Upgrade the manufacturing image by entering:
fwupdate update expander-manufacturing-image -n c0x0 -f
/path/mfgImageCust03x.bin
Where c0x0 is the ID for the target NEM expander, and path is the directory
path to where the image file is located, and x is determined by the name of the
manufacturing image file for the specific SAS-1 NEM expander being
upgraded (see
TABLE 1-3).
Example output might look like:
If the upgrade is not successful, review the fwupdate error log file to isolate
the problem and retry the upgrade. The fwupdate.log file is located in
/var/log/fwupdate/fwupdate.log in Solaris and Linux, and
/temp/log/fwupdate/fwupdate.log in Windows.
Note – The firmware upgrade is successful if you see the keywords “succeeded” or
“success.” Wait until the firmware of the target expander has been successfully
upgraded before attempting any additional commands. The new manufacturing
image is not active until after the system has been power cycled. Ignore any
messages after the firmware was successfully upgraded.
The following components will be upgraded:
c0x0 [y/n]? y
Upgrade of c0x0 from 5.2.14.0 to 5.4.3.0 succeeded.
Chapter 1 SAS-1/SAS-2 Compatibility Upgrade Instructions 11
c. Upgrade the expander firmware by entering:
fwupdate update expander-firmware -n c0x0 -f /path/sasxfwx
v.5.04.03.fw
Where c0x0 is the ID for the target NEM expander, path is the directory path to
where the image file is located, and x is determined by the name of the
expander firmware file. For the name of the expander firmware file for the
specific SAS-1 NEM being upgraded, see
TABLE 1-3.
Example output might look like this:
Note – Wait until the firmware of the target expander has been successfully
upgraded before attempting any additional commands. If you see an “Upgrade
succeeded, but is not yet active” message, it can be safely ignored.
d. If the chassis has two SAS-1 NEMs, repeat the upgrade process described in
Step b and Step c for the second NEM.
The example used here would include upgrading expander c0x1.
5. Upgrade the expander firmware of the host-paired Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module
as follows:
a. Rename the manufacturing image from
/path/mfgImageCust03x.5.04.03.bin to mfgImageCust03x.bin.
Where x is a variable that is determined by the name of the manufacturing
image file for the specific disk module expander being upgraded (see
TABLE 1-3).
Note – The version of manufacturing image may not be machine readable. And
after the expander firmware is updated, the new version of the manufacturing image
is not readable until after the system has been power cycled.
The following components will be upgraded:
c0x0 [y/n]? y
Upgrade of c0x0 from 5.2.14.0 to 5.4.3.0 succeeded.
12 Book Title without trademarks, or an abbreviated book title • March 2011
b. Upgrade the manufacturing image by entering:
fwupdate update expander-manufacturing-image -n c0x0 -f
/path/mfgImageCust03x.bin
Where c0x0 is the ID for the target NEM expander, and path is the directory
path to where the image file is located, and x is determined by the name of the
manufacturing image file for the specific disk module expander being
upgraded (see
TABLE 1-3).
Example output might look like:
Note – Wait until the firmware of the target expander has been successfully
upgraded before attempting any additional commands. If you see an “Upgrade
succeeded, but is not yet active” message, it can be safely ignored.
If the upgrade is not successful, review the fwupdate error log file to isolate
the problem and retry the upgrade. The fwupdate.log file is located in
/var/log/fwupdate/fwupdate.log in Solaris and Linux, and
/temp/log/fwupdate/fwupdate.log in Windows.
c. Upgrade the expander firmware by entering:
fwupdate update expander-firmware -n c0x2 -f /path/sasxfwx
v.5.04.03.fw
Where c0x2 is the ID for the target disk module expander, path is the directory
path to where the image file is located, and x is determined by the name of the
disk module expander firmware file. For the name of the disk module
expander firmware file, see
TABLE 1-3.
Example output might look like this:

Updating c0x2: Success
Chapter 1 SAS-1/SAS-2 Compatibility Upgrade Instructions 13
Note – Wait until the firmware of the target expander has been successfully
upgraded before attempting any additional commands. If you see an “Upgrade
succeeded, but is not yet active” message, it can be safely ignored.
If the upgrade is not successful, review the fwupdate error log file to isolate
the problem and retry the upgrade. The fwupdate.log file is located in
/var/log/fwupdate/fwupdate.log in Solaris and Linux, and
/log/fwupdate/fwupdate.log in Windows.
d. Repeat Step b and Step c for the second expander in the disk module.
The example used here would include upgrading expander c0x3.
Note – Both Master and Slave expanders in the disk module must be upgraded.
6. Shut down the host OS and power cycle the chassis.
If you are shutting down from a CMM, see
(http://docs.sun.com/source/820-0051-
11/service_preparation.html#50409492_pgfId-1045755)
or use the following CLI:
-> stop -f /CH
-> start /CH
7. When done, check that all host viewable SAS expanders are at the supported
version for SAS-1/SAS-2 coexistence (5.04.03) by entering the command:
fwupdate list all
Example output might look like this:

8. Proceed to the next SAS-1 server module slot-paired with a Sun Blade 6000
Disk Module and repeat Step 3 to obtain the expander IDs.
9. Repeat Step 5 through Step 8 until all SAS-1 disk modules in the chassis have
had their expanders upgraded.
10. If your SAS-1 NEMs have an ILOM service processor, you might also need to
upgrade its ILOM firmware to achieve a supported firmware level that is
matched to the new expander firmware.
For instructions on upgrading the ILOM service processor firmware for a SAS-1
NEM, refer to the NEM user’s guide. For more information on SAS-1 NEMs, see
“System Requirements for the SAS-1/SAS-2 Compatibility Upgrade” on page 2.
11. After you have upgraded all of your SAS-1 NEMs and disk modules, you can
safely insert your SAS-2 server module into the chassis.
The SAS-2 server module will be supported in the SAS-1 chassis with the
following conditions:
■ The SAS-2 server module will function properly in the chassis and be able to
use its own internal SAS-2 storage and its PCIe Express Modules (EMs).
■ The SAS-2 server module will be able to use the network component of SAS-1
NEMs.
■ The SAS-2 server module cannot use disks in a Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module (a
SAS-1 device). This is an unsupported configuration.
■ The SAS-2 server module must be installed in a chassis slot that does not have
a Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module in an adjacent slot.
Refer to the documentation that comes with your SAS-2 server module for
additional installation and configuration instructions.
