I would use another method to perform the update. You can update through the operating system or use our Support Live Image with Linux packages if the host OS cannot be used for updates. [URL]
Hello, Thanks for any help with this. I'm using Lifecycle Controller to update firmware. It's worked well so far but i cannot get the Emulex card to update. It's stuck on 02.00.04 I've disconnected the storage from the controller and rebooted and re-tried to upgrade a few times. Anyone had this problem and resolved it? detailed error below. Also, is anyone updating firmware for the power supply or CPLD? i don't think it was listed in the scan and update firmware wizard. Many thanks,  I get the following error:  Event Message: Communication with Integrated RAID Controller 1 is intermittent.Date/Time: Fri, 06 Dec 2019 16:07:05 -0600Severity: Critical Detailed Description: The controller is not receiving a consistent response from the enclosure. There could be a firmware problem or an invalid cabling configuration. If the cables are too long, they degrade the signal.Recommended Action: Power down all enclosures attached to the system and reboot . If the problem persists, upgrade the firmware to the latest supported version. Verify the cable configuration is valid. See the storage hardware documentation for valid cabling configurations.Message ID: ENC24 System Model: PowerEdge R730
