[hcclnoodles]

Hi there, I have a Sunfire v210 running solaris 8 and the PROM banner shows that the openboot version is 4.11.4, I have nbeen asked to make sure that the PROM is at the latest version.

Does anybody know the procedure for upgrading openboot, and indeed , where i can get the software from

any help would be greatly appreciated

Sunsolve will give you the latest revision for each server.
Download the patch required, unzip and follow the instructions in the read me file.
Essentialy this will involve booting to single user mode and booting to the flash_update file.
i.e boot disk /flas_updatexxxxxx.

Hope this helps.
