Displaying the Firmware Version Using sysfs
The sysfs interface is available to advanced users to display the adapter firmware
version. To display the FCoE adapter firmware version, log in as root, and type the
following command, where X is the host number:
#cat /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/fw_version
5.03.02 (8d4)
To display the MPI firmware version, log in as root, and type the following
command:
#cat /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/mpi_version

Upgrading the Boot Code (Firmware)
You can upgrade the boot code using the QConvergeConsole or the BIOS and
UEFI management utilities.
Upgrading the Boot Code Using the QConvergeConsole GUI
Updating the boot code applies to the adapter and not for individual ports. For a
multi-port adapter, you can update the boot code (flash image) only through the
first port.
To update boot code using the QConvergeConsole:
1. Expand the adapter port number 1, then select the FCoE port.
2. In the right pane, click the Utilities tab.
