Updating Firmware Using The Offline ROM Flash Method
The Offline ROM Flash, as its name implies, is performed when the server is taken down for regular
maintenance. Although the results will be the same, the Offline ROM Flash does not provide the same
benefits of the new Online ROM Flash method. In addition, when upgrading remotely, the server administrator
can only update one server at a time.
There are two methods of performing an Offline ROM Flash. The firmware can be updated using a ROMPaq
Diskette or using either the ROM Update Utility or the HP Smart Update Manager.
IMPORTANT: Beginning with the Firmware Maintenance CD Version 7.50, the HP Smart Update Manager
Utility has replaced the HP ROM Update Utility. All other firmware update methods, including Offline Systems
ROMPaq and Online ROM Flash are unaffected and continue to be supported methods of flashing the
System ROM.
The Customer Notice, HP Smart Update Manager Utility Replaces HP ROM Update Utility on the Firmware
Maintenance CD and Provides Enhancements for Upgrading Firmware on ProLiant Servers, provides
information on the differences between the HP Smart Update Manager Utility and the HP ROM Update Utility
and the upgrades and enhancements available in HP Smart Update Manager. Refer to the following URL to

A ROMPaq is a floppy-disk based method of upgrade. The firmware is downloaded onto a floppy diskette and
then the system is booted to the floppy drive.
The ROM Update Utility is located on the Firmware Maintenance CD, or can be downloaded to a USB Drive
Key using the HP Drive Key Boot Utility.
Note: Hard Drive components can only be updated using the Offline method.
