Updating the PERC firmware is going to require an outage, because the .BIN file essentially will stage a firmware update job for the lifecycle controller. There shouldn't be any special considerations though. At most, you may need to grant execution privileges in order to run the update.
Dear Support I have a server with a PERC 6/i on it. It's running Linux.  I see that the firmware it's outdated: Firmware Version : 6.3.0-0001Minimum Required Firmware Version : 6.3.3-0002 I got " SAS-RAID_Firmware_F96NR_LN_6.3.3-0002_X00.BIN" which is the latest firmware for the PERC 6/i for Linux. This is a shell script with data after the shell program. I see in the instructions to install the firmware are mostly for windows. Do I need to take special measures to update the firmware this way? I do not want to cause any downtime on the server's users, thanks.
