for the internal CD/DVD drive whenever none of the
Boot Manager variables exist. This condition
typically only occurs when EFI NVM is invalid
- The dh command now displays the device and vendor
strings for any handle with an attached UI protocol.
Currently only the EFI shell and the internal CD/DVD
drive handles have the UI protocol attached
- The dh command can now search for handles which have
the UI protocol attached using: "dh -p ui"
- From Intel's 01.10 [14.61] EFI drop:
* Added generalized page break mechanism with the
"-b" option for select commands. At each screen
full of text, user is prompted to continue or
quit display

* dmpstore no longer defaults to using page break.
Use "dmpstore -b" to view data with page breaks
- The dmpstore command now supports the syntax
"dmpstore [-b] [variable]", where variable is the
name of a specific variable for which to display
data

-----------------------------------------------------------
The following fixes appear in System firmware revision
03.23:
Fixed issues:
- SAL now returns the exact FSB frequency instead of a
rounded one to fix problem with the system losing
wall time every day.
- Fixed issue where system could lock up if a user put
slower CPU's in the system than were installed
before.
- Firmware now assumes all PCI-X cards are 66MHz capable
- Serialized late selftest.
- System could fail to recover if a CPU was deconfigured
by firmware during the boot process.
- Increased wait time from 10ms to 25ms for PCI slot
power on.
The following fixes appear in System firmware revision
03.21:
Fixed issues:
- Corrected compatibility issues with EFI EBC drivers
- Corrected issues RDFM/WRFM ACPI issue with HPUX.
This could cause issues with HPUX 11.23 and later
- I/O changed to report system as non-hotpluggable to
the OS to ensure compatibility with the RDFM/WRFM
ACPI.
- EFI "Baud" command was locked-out on the MP UART in
previous version of firmware. The "Baud" command is
now supported with MP firmware revisions E.02.23
and later.
- Function ID for PCI UART in previous revision could be
reported incorrectly in the HCDP table.
- The EFI console splitter did not initialize its
attributes value in previous versions of firmware.
The original attribute for the console splitter
standard output in previous revisions was 0, which
is black foreground on black background. During boot
the EFI console could become temporarily unreadable
displaying black text on a black background in
previous revisions of firmware.
- SAL Speculation Fault Handler did not update IIPA
correctly in previous revisions of firmware.
- In previous revisions of firmware after PCI MCA
errors occasionally the OS_MCA handler is unable
to access PCI configuration space. The firmware
handoff state to OS_MCA did not always re-enable
PCI configuration space transactions. This caused
HP-UX to be unable to reinitialize the console
resulting in the system being hung.
- Previous revisions firmware produced misleading error
messages when an incorrect admin or user password is
entered ("Error verifying password. Status=
Unsupported" and "Unable to verify privilege.
SAL or BMC failure."). Revision 03.21 produces an
"access denied" error.
- Corrected errors in the EFI Help text.
- Previous revisions of the EFI boot manager did not
allow text highlighting with HP-UX's xterm. EFI
now uses the reversed text attribute to allow text
highlighting to work on HP-UX's xterm.
- Previous revisions of EFI sent an "ESC[3h" to the
serial or lan console device during initialization
or when a 'reconnect -r' command was issued. The
"ESC[3h" causes VT100 terminal emulators to act
according to the VT100 specification and change
display mode to "display control mode". This mode
displays control characters instead of acting upon
them. The result is a screen filled with control
codes and garbled text. Revision 03.21 corrects
this issue.
- Previous revisions of firmware did not implement the
Platform Features Descriptor entry and the
Translation Register Descriptor entry of the SAL
system table. Revision 03.21 implements these
entries in the SAL system table.
The following fixes appear in System firmware revision
03.11:
Fixed issues:
- CPE error severity is now reported correctly.
- FW now enforces 128MB error free memory when
initing memory only.
- DiskIO fix in EFI for proper alignment of
Disk/Memory accesses.
- SAL MCA Monarch LID fix .
- SAL MCA GR11 handoff state fix.
- ErrorHandler Module Specific Function Pointer
fixed for virtual mode.
- The "pdt clear" EFI command now only clears
PDT once, not again on reboot.
- Fix to enable ACC network card.
- Timing/Frequency fix to fully support processors
over 1 GHz.
- Old CPE/CMC logs are now invalidated before
attempting to log again.
- Correct PalProc Addr is used during CPU Deconfig.
- Memory Poisoning using unoptimized routine.
- New EFI 1.1 memory requirements for RUN_TIME_MEMORY
attribute.
- New EFI 1.1 memory requirements for
EfiAcpiReclaimMemory.
- SAL System Table shows OEM_ID as Intel instead of HP.
- MCA when installing Windows.
- FW will now demote hard SBE's and unverified MBE's
in the PDT below 128MB. This is to be in spec
with the SPPA Platform EAS published April 2002.
- Firmware sets incorrect PCI bus error log validation
bits.
- Error log severity may be incorrect for I/O errors.
- Disable Mercury Strict_DCR to accommodate HP ATM
cards .
- Need EFI INFO CPU to display Cache Sizes.
- ASSERT filenames reversed within event data.
- EFI INFO SYS should display FSB frequency.
- EFI INFO SYS should display date and time.
- Need to remove clearing of BMC passwords.
- EFI USB Driver must support USB and LS120 floppy.
- Only one keyboard enabled with multiple keyboards
installed.
- EFI_SYSTEM_STATE_RUNNING_OK event misdefined with
unused data type.
- INFO SYS should display all fields settable via
SYSSET.
- Usb Keyboard Driver has significant memory leaks.
- Memory Poisoning using unoptimized routine. Adds
to boot time.
- Efi Stack and backing store sizes are not per
the EFI spec 2.3.3.
- Delete the word 'order' from "Product Order
Number" strings.
- Stopboot timeout message has extra ')' when
less than 10 seconds.
- Long output in the Advanced System Information
menu is now paged.
- Update ConsoleSelection code for the Vibern USB
driver.
- There is a possible memory corruption caused by
SFW.
- INFO CPU should not display absent CPUs.
- IPF will not boot with a 300i and media installed .
- FTP causes a TRAP.
- Boot manager does not detect removable media change.
- DVD Boot option incorrect when no DVD drive present.
- The device and vendor strings for internal DVD drive
could be improved.
The following fixes appear in System firmware revision
02.21:
Fixed issues:
- Intel has notified HP and other computer
manufacturers of an issue with the Itanium 2
processor. Multiprocessor (MP) systems running
IA-32 applications that use the "cmpxchg8b"
instruction could experience hangs, halts, or
data integrity issues on your system while running
Windows or Linux; HP-UX is not susceptible. HP
multiprocessor systems that may be affected are:
the HP Server rx2600, HP Server rx5670, and the HP
Workstation zx6000. The issue does not occur on
the first generation Itanium processor-based
systems or on recently announced Itanium 2-based
single processor systems such as the HP Workstation
zx2000. It also does not occur on any other Intel
processors or PA-RISC or Alpha systems. This issue
is not unique to HP and is a published Intel
erratum on the Itanium 2 processor (Erratum 53).
The problem has not been reported by any Itanium 2
processor customers. However, because Intel is
strongly committed to delivering high quality
products, it has developed a new PAL (Processor
Abstraction Layer, a part of system firmware)
that addresses the issue. HP has incorporated
this new PAL into updated firmware for its
Itanium 2 -based products.
The following fixes appear in System firmware revision
02.11:
Fixed issues:
- In previous versions of firmware the unloading the
EBC driver caused the system to MCA. Firmware
revision 2.11 corrects this issue.
- Previous revisions of firmware issued warning
messages when the most current revision of MP
firmware was not installed on the MP card and
the revision checking scheme did not allow for
newer revisions than the one hard coded in
revblock when the firmware image was built.
Firmware revision 2.11 corrects this issue.
- Previous revisions of firmware were unable to boot
from a DVD without having to remap. The following
action sequence produced failures
- plug the machine in, and boot it to the IPF Setup
& Config DVD.
- A menu called the EFI Boot manger will appear, with
the following options:
1. efi shell [build in]
2. Microsoft Windows .NET Boot
3. DVD
4. Boot option maintenance menu
5. Security/Password menu
- pick option 3 for DVD
- The same menu will appear:
1. efi shell [build in]
2. Microsoft Windows .NET Boot
3. DVD
4. Boot option maintenance menu
5. Security/Password menu
The selecting option 3 will continue to display
this menu on previous revisions of firmware.
- Previous revisions of EFI the "info fw" command and
the "ver" command returned different values for
the SAL B revision. Firmware revision 2.11 corrects
this issue.
- Setting the EFI console to VGA only on servers using
Linux caused the system to hang with previous
versions of firmware. Firmware revision 2.11
corrects this issue.
- The earlier versions of rx5670 firmware did not
duplicate or backup the system serial number
and original product number. These variables
are used for system identification. This prevented
them from being restored when parts were replaced.
These variables are used by management applications
to identify the system and application licensing.
Firmware revision 2.11 corrects this issue.
- The earlier versions of rx5670 firmware did not
consistently display SCSI disks being detected when
executing the reconnect command. Firmware revision
2.11 corrects this issue.
- When Fibre Channel cards were installed in rx5670
servers with earlier firmware and topology was
changed it caused a later "reconnect -r" command
to hang. Firmware revision 2.11 corrects this issue.
- In Windows operating system, the manageability
software starts the watchdog timer to implement
a feature called ASR (Automatic Server Recovery).
When the operating system enters a hung or
unresponsive state the watchdog timer refresh will
fail and will let the timer expire in 10 minutes.
The expiration will cause a hard reset, therefore
getting the server out of the hung/unresponsive
state. In extreme cases when the refresh process
of watchdog timer failed unexpectedly the watchdog
timer kept on ticking even during the system
restart that followed. Since the configured timer
action is a hard reset, the system restarted
again at some point while the Operating System
boots up. Firmware revision 2.11 stops the watchdog
timer when a reset is detected preventing the
unexpected reboot.
- Previous revisions of rx5670 firmware did not display
PAL A and PAL B revision numbers with the "info FW"
command.
- In earlier versions of firmware if power to the
system and the battery failed at the same time the
date and time would be set to an invalid value.
This prevented the user from resetting the date and
time to a correct Date and Time. This issue is
corrected by firmware revision 2.11.

Installation Instructions:
Please review all instructions and the Hewlett-Packard
SupportLine User Guide or your Hewlett-Packard support terms
and conditions for precautions, scope of license,
restrictions, and, limitation of liability and warranties,
before installing this patch.
------------------------------------------------------------
1. Back up your system before installing a patch.
2. Login as root.
3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory.
4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch:
cd /tmp
sh PHSS_35297
5. Run swinstall to install the patch:
swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \
-s /tmp/PHSS_35297.depot
By default swinstall will archive the original software in
/var/adm/sw/save/PHSS_35297. If you do not wish to retain a
copy of the original software, include the patch_save_files
option in the swinstall command above:
-x patch_save_files=false
WARNING: If patch_save_files is false when a patch is installed,
the patch cannot be deinstalled. Please be careful
when using this feature.
For future reference, the contents of the PHSS_35297.text file is
available in the product readme:
swlist -l product -a readme -d @ /tmp/PHSS_35297.depot
To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the
tape drive, use the command:
dd if=/tmp/PHSS_35297.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k
Special Installation Instructions:
1. This patch will only install and update the firmware on
rx5670 systems.
If you wish to install the patch on a different system even
though it does not apply, you can force the installation of
the patch by using the touch(1) command to create the file
'/tmp/force_patch_install' before installing the patch.
This may be useful when creating a 'golden' archive image
for Ignite-UX that may be used on several different
hardware platforms.
If the patch is installed on a system other than those
listed above, it will not modify the system firmware so no
harm will occur.
2. If this patch is uninstalled it will not uninstall/
downgrade the firmware installed by the patch and the
firmware installed by the patch will remain loaded after
the patch is removed.
3. The firmware update is accomplished by temporarily
altering the boot sequence. To identify the disk, patch
assumes that the primary boot disk is the first disk listed
in the /stand/bootconf file.
To ensure the firmware update is successful, please use the
setboot(1M) and ioscan(1M) commands to verify that the
primary boot disk is set and is the first disk listed in the
/stand/bootconf file. If it is not, modify the bootconf
file appropriately. Please reference the man page for
bootconf(4) for information on this file.
4. The firmware update must be performed outside of an OS
install, update-UX, or Dynamic Root Disk session. If a
firmware update is performed, it will be excluded from
installation to ensure that OS install, update-UX, or DRD
is fully functional.
5. The firmware update will be excluded from installation
if the firmware versions in the patch is the same or older
than the one the system is running on. This will ensure
that no un-necessary system reboot occurs.
6. Any future firmware versions on the system can be
downgraded with firmware in this patch by using the
command "touch /tmp/force_patch_install" before
installing the patch. If there are any newer firmware
patches installed on the system that supersede this
firmware patch, the newer firmware patches must be removed
with the SD command swremove in order to install this
downgrade firmware patch.
7. The firmware update will be excluded from installation
if the autoboot flag is not set. This is to ensure that the
end-to-end firmware update process goes smoothly without
user intervention once the patch installation is started.
Please use to setboot(1M) command to set the autoboot flag
on prior to installing the patch.
8. The firmware update will be excluded from installation
if the system has an Administrator password set.
If this password is set, it must be cleared by connecting
to the MP and running the BP command from the Command Menu
prior to installing the patch.
9. Do not attempt to update firmware on the MP via the
network while installing this patch.
10. Prior to updating the iLO MP firmware a MP reset needs
to occur via the "XD-R" command in order to free up enough
contiguous memory.
11. Systems upgrading to HP-UX 11i v2 must first upgrade
system firmware to version 03.21 or later.
12. The MP firmware update will fail if the "Allow MP
Firmware upgrade via PCI" option is Disabled in the MP
Security Options menu. To update the firmware using this
package, enable this option in the MP Security Options
menu.
13. The BMC driver version 5.0 or Health driver version
7.0 or greater must be installed on the system to detect
the current firmware revisions. If the driver is not
installed, the existing firmware revisions are not
compared with the new firmware in the package.
