Why is BMC firmware not upgraded after the ONTAP upgrade?
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- Service Processor (SP)
- Baseboard Management Controller (BMC)
Answer
- The BMC firmware upgrade is attempted during the ONTAP upgrade only if the BMC image bundled with the target ONTAP is greater than the version already running in the system.
- To verify which BMC firmware is bundled with ONTAP image, refer to SP and BMC Firmware/ONTAP Support Matrix
