Patch Name: PF_CBCJ0050 Patch Description: HP 9000 Model B[12]000/C3X00/J[567]X00 firmware 5.0 patch SCSI - Fixed J6000's external SCSI port definition I/O - Fixed a case where allocating all of memory mapped I/O space can lead to an infinite loop on the way to the Boot Console Handler - Clears upper 32 bit PCI BAR of a PCI card that has 64-bit BAR registers - Only finds the SCSI floppy once during a search command - System stops the boot if PCI cards cannot be completely configured due to a lack of memory mapped I/O space - The SYMBIOS USB card no longer causes the search command to fail This patch is equivalent to software patch PHSS_24104 for HPUX 10.20, PHSS_24105 for HPUX 11.00 and PHSS_24106 for HPUX 11.11. PF_CBCJ0049: SCSI - allows the ClearFifo function to save the LVDS pad enable value Memory - sets 1GB DIMM's refresh rate to 7.8us, regardless of the DIMM's SPD value to insure all DIMM's use the same refresh rate. This update is equivalent to software patch PHSS_23184 for HPUX 10.20, PHSS_23185 for HPUX 11.00, and PHSS_23186 for HPUX 11.11. PF_CBCJ0048: PCI - to fix a possible data integrity problem between PCI and the I/O controller, PCI slot 1 is being limited to operate at a maximum data transfer rate of 256MB/sec on J6000s. No other system is affected. This update is equivalent to software patch PHSS_22900 for HPUX 10.20 and PHSS_22901 for HPUX 11.00. PF_CBCJ0046: HPMC - Saved timestamp value is now updated on every call to PDC_CHASSIS DUMP - Prevents fxe hang during a HPMC/TOC/panic dump (fixed in rev 4.5) LPMC - clean_icache_line will clean correct line of cache (fixed in rev 4.5) This update is equivalent to software patch PHSS_22573 for HPUX 10.20 and PHSS_22574 for HPUX 11.00. PF_CBCJ0045: PCI - Supports Z7476AA ACC card - Recognizes and resets LBA during LPMC,TOC, or panic to improve system dumps BCH - revises FASTBOOT message to print "NOTICE" instead of "WARNING" This update is equivalent to software patch PHSS_22474 for HPUX 10.20 and PHSS_22475 for HPUX 11.00. PF_CBCJ0040: SYS - supports J6000 - fixes a cache selftest failure - LPMC handler does not touch any RDR registers during LPMC processing I/O - enables B5506A Ethernet PCI card support - fix to the PCI memory allocator to support J3525A, J2526A X.25 PCI card - fix to keep RS232 from hanging during early chassis codes for 3 wire RS232 connections - reads the status command twice if an error is detected to fix a Mitsumi CD ROM problem on B2000 This update is equivalent to software patch PHSS_21620 for HPUX 10.20 and PHSS_21621 for HPUX 11.00. PF_CBCJ0035: CPU - corrects a register value in the PCI bridge controller to prevent setting address bit 32 to 0 on transactions mastered by fast 64 bits PCI cards into system memory on systems with more than 4GB of memory - PA8600 Data Cache LRU off - improve SYNC_OUTDLY setting GRAPHICS - disable accesses to expansion ROM if ROM is memory-mapped and card has single decoder. This update is equivalent to software patch PHSS_21082 for HPUX 10.20 and PHSS_21083 for HPUX 11.00. PF_CBCJ0034: CPU - PA8600 Data Cache LRU off - improve SYNC_OUTDLY setting GRAPHICS - disable accesses to expansion ROM if ROM is memory-mapped and card has single decoder.

PCI - HP A5513A ATM card support added in all PCI slots - HP A5515A ATM card support added in all PCI slots except for B1000/C3000 slot 2. PDCE - PDC_SYSTEM_INFO option 1 now reports correctly. CDROM - Support added for TEAC and Mitsumi IDE CDROMs PF_CBCJ0023: PROCESSOR/CACHE - Supports PA8500 processor rev 2.4 - The instruction cache self-tests execute faster. PDC - Added support for future processor - Improved SICL support and data reporting from PCI bridge controller MEMORY - All physical memory is reported to HP-UX - Add support for 1 GB DIMMs - Adds support for DIMMs that may have SGS SPD EEPROMs. - Better reporting of IO/Memory controller errors. - Memory self-test no longer updates the chassis every 128MB. It now varies according to memory amount. HPMC/TRAPS/PIM - HPMC PIM Analysis section added to the HPMC PIM. The analysis can be retrieved using the standard PIM retrival tools. The analysis explains the HPMC from both the CPU's and the IO/Memory Controller's perspective. - HPMC handler now correctly fills in the System Requester Address. - Fixed PIM dump to contain correct responder path if available. - When the CPU times out trying to talk to memory (Timeout HPMC), the address 0xfffffffffed10200 is logged in the System Responder Address rather than 0xfffffffffed10000. BOOTSTRAP - The Flash EEPROM is now protected against accidental reprogramming. - The FUPDATE command in "updatelif" enables Flash programming. - Bad fans are detected at boot time; chassis codes and LCD second line message are printed - Added failed PCI chassis code if toggling rope_debug register fails - Change HPA selected routine for PCI devices to use first memory BAR whether it is prefetchable or not. BCH - The "IN SC" command has been added, to print system configuration. - The "IN IO" command prints "(no firmware driver)" for plug-in cards for which IODC could not be found (possibly because the card is not supported by firmware for boot/console/keyboard use). LCD - Added LCD-only diagnostic chassis codes. - 7000 LCD messages no longer have embedded spaces when running ODE MEMTEST - Three LCD chassis code English strings now say "Iodc" or "IODC" instead of "boot", since they can result from console device's IODC. GRAPHICS - A4452A graphics is improved. SCSI - Improved booting support for new DDS3 tape drives. - Allow booting a wide disk connected to narrow SE SCSI PF_CBCJ0019: PROCESSOR - Set 2WB bit in Status0 on J5000/J7000 - Data cache store queue test improved MEMORY - BCH command "SER PDT CLEAR" works - Firmware deallocates inaccessible DIMMs - Firmware attempts to isolate single-bit errors to a single DIMM on J7000 HPMC/TRAPS/PIM - Memory Error Log information is reported in PIM for HPMC - All parts of PIM are cleared when they should be - The CPU State word in TOC PIM is valid - When a system HPMCs while running Unix, it will complete the dump to disk successfully even if the system had a previous HPMC and it was not rebooted BCH - "CO LC" command can now be used to manually set full- or half-duplex LAN - "SESCSI" added as alias for "SCSI", for backward compatibility USB KEYBOARD - USB supports a PS2 keybord connected to USBtoPS2 converter cable - Fixes a problem that caused a call to USB IODC Entry init to cause HPMC after the DST WDIAG test was executed. - Retries the input device while in BCH, offering a limited USB hot-swap and recovery from accidental disconnection of keyboard NOTE: This functionality is only available while the system is in BCH. - Control keystrokes (^A to ^Z) are now reported. SERIAL (RS232) CONSOLE - Shows serial console baud rate on LCD, unless it is the standard 9600 baud - Fixed problem that stopped system if serial console user tried to stop autoboot too early FANS - Multiple fan failures now produce multiple chassis codes - fans now run quieter in B1000/C3000 MISCELLANEOUS - Failing Real Time Clock module now generates a WARNing visible at BCH - The LIF volume has a new CONFIGDATA file that understands J5k/7k and B1k/C3k HVersions - The LIF volume has a larger pad file at the end, to improve updating from SCSI CD-ROM drives - Fixed bug that prohibited booting Recovery Tape from DSS (SCSI) tape drive - Fixed two bugs that could cause unintentional modification to the Flash ROM content - Flash ROM is always checksummed now, independent of the Fastboot flag Path Name: /firmware_patches/hp/cpu/PF_CBCJ0050 Creation Date: 01/05/14 Post Date: 01/05/15 SR: None "sum" output: 53696 4404 CBCJ0050.frm Hardware Dependencies: HP 9000 Model B1000,B2000,C3X00,J5X00,J6000,J7000 Supersedes: PF_CBCJ0019 PF_CBCJ0023 PF_CBCJ0031 PF_CBCJ0032 PF_CBCJ0034 PF_CBCJ0035 PF_CBCJ0040 PF_CBCJ0045 PF_CBCJ0046 PF_CBCJ0048 PF_CBCJ0049 Installation Instructions: Please review all instructions and the Hewlett-Packard Support Line 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. Read all of these instructions before proceeding with the update. Printing these instructions will be helpful. Commands to be executed will be inside < > ie: Keys to be pressed will be inside [ ] ie: [return] * * * * * * SIDE AFFECTS FROM UPDATING YOUR FIRMWARE * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * CREATING THE FIRMWARE UPDATE TAPE * * * * * * * * Step 1. Verify the checksum of the file ".frm" using the "sum" command. Results of the command should be equal to the "sum" value as documented in the header of this document. Step 2. Use the "dd" command to copy the file "CBCJ0050.frm" to tape, as follows: dd if=CBCJ0050.frm of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k ^^^^^^^^^^^ (device path dependent) NOTE: Blocksize (bs) must be = 2k * * * * * * * IDENTIFY CURRENT VERSION OF FIRMWARE * * * * * * * Prior to performing the firmware update, verify the current version of your firmware, using the following steps: Step 1. Re-boot your system and do the following: A. Interrupt the boot process and from the BOOT ADMIN prompt, type and press [return]. B. Identify your firmware revision. The last 2 digits in the patch name indicate the revision. In this case, 5.0 is the revision. If the revision on your system is equal to or higher than 5.0, do not proceed with the update. * * * * * * * * * * FIRMWARE UPDATE PROCEDURE * * * * * * * * * * Step 1: Install the tape you have just created into your tape drive. Step 2. Shutdown your system via the power switch and power back on, or execute the reboot command resetting your system. Step 3. When the display reads "Searching for a system to boot" press [escape]. At the BOOT ADMIN prompt, type and press [enter] or [return] to identify the tape device path. Step 4. Boot from the appropriate boot path. (You must boot from the device that contains the firmware update tape.) NOTE: This process is automatic and requires no interaction until directed to do so. Please do not Interrupt the process. NOTE: The load process will take about 2 minutes. Step 5. A warning message will be issued, followed by "Continue ([y]/n)? Enter and press [enter] or [return] if you wish to continue. Be sure the image on the tape is a newer version than that on your system before proceeding. NOTE: FROM THIS POINT FORWARD, THIS PROCESS CANNOT BE INTERRUPTED UNTIL COMPLETION. INTERRUPTING THIS PROCESS WILL CAUSE YOUR SYSTEM TO BE INOPERATIVE. NOTE: DURING THE EXECUTION OF THIS UPDATE, THE FIRMWARE FONTS FILE WILL BE RE-WRITTEN. IF THESE ARE NEW FONTS, YOU WILL NOT SEE ANY TEXT WRITTEN TO THE SCREEN AFTER THE MESSAGE; You will see 2 carriage returns and 2 line feeds and then the display will remain the same. In about 20 seconds the system will automatically re-boot. If it doesn't, the update has failed. Attempt to run the update again from Step 2. If it still fails, or you cannot get to the boot admin prompt, call your HP Service Representative. The system will continue the normal boot process from the default primary path. * * * * * * END OF UPDATE * * * * * *
