How to update the FPROMs on a 15K system board
All FPROMs on all system boards must be updated with the sgcpu.flash image using the flashupdate utility.
For SMS 1.1, the image is found in patch 112241-02. For SMS 1.2, the image is found in patch 112829-03.
*** Please read the special instructions found in the patch installation instructions for the above SMS patches. ***
Updating the FPROMs on all the system boards in a domain (example below uses domain 'a')
On the MAIN sc (as sms-svc) run:

NOTE: You can update the flash PROMs on the system boards, the I/O boards, and the system controller while the Solaris[TM] Operating Environment is active in the domains. You must reboot the domain for the firmware update to take effect.
If you would like to update only ONE system board on the platform, then you specify the board location as follows:
mc15k-sc1:sms-svc:6> flashupdate -f /opt/SUNWSMS/SMS1.2/hostobjs/sgcpu.flash sb0 Current System Board FPROM Information ======================================== CPU at SB0, FPROM 0: POST 5.13.1 05/31/02 16:36:00 OBP 5.13.1 05/31/02 16:36:00 Ver 5.13.1 05/31/02 16:36:00 CPU at SB0, FPROM 1: POST 5.13.1 05/31/02 16:36:00 OBP 5.13.1 05/31/02 16:36:00 Ver 5.13.1 05/31/02 16:36:00 Flash Image Information ========================== POST 5.13.1 05/31/02 16:36:00 OBP 5.13.1 05/31/02 16:36:00 Ver 5.13.1 05/31/02 16:36:00 Do you wish to update the FPROM (yes/no)? y
