N1SM and 4x00 bios upgrades
I've been looking at using this package to perform some bios updates -- setting up the ILOM upgrade looks to be trivial, but I did not see any information on performing the LSI bios/fw upgrades that the docs say should be done before the ILOM.
Does anyone use N1 for bios upgrades? Does it work well? Can you do the LSI bios/fw upgrades? If not, how do you do them; booting each workstation off a CD (either physically or via javaws client) seems painful....
thanks,
Keith

To date N1SM cannot not upgrade the BIOS on systems. This has been considered an RFE in the past but is not on the latest roadmaps I have seen for the product.
