Hello everybody~
I got the MIC card in January,2013, but I finally set up a server to use the MIC card just a few days ago. However, when I try to install the latest MPSS(mpss_gold_update_3-2.1.6720-16), I met a problem. It is required to update the SMC & Flash of MIC to finish the installation of MPSS. However, if you want to update the SMC & Flash, you should meet the requirements:
o PREREQUISITES:(Section 7.2 in readme-en.txt)
- Uninstall prior version of MPSS and install new version
- Starting version of Flash must be >= 375, if not, contact your
Intel support representative
The version of Flash on my MIC is 2.1.01.0372(acquired by running `miccheck`), which doesn't meet the requirement. It seems that I need to update the Flash via a previous version of MPSS first and then install the new MPSS.
I try to find the previous version of MPSS in MPSS Archive(MPSS Archive). The most previous version it provides is the N-2 version, in which it is still required the version of Flash must be >= 375 to update the Flash.
Could someone tell me how to update the too old Flash in my MIC? Thank you very much! Maybe an old version of MPSS is what I need?
Another thing comes to my mind: Well, the old version of MPSS was compiled on the old release of RHEL & SUSE Linux. Unfortunately, my server runs RHEL 6.4. Is there a way to update the Flash on the new OS platform avoiding downgrading the OS version on my server?
Thank you very much again for all your concern. Waiting for a good solution :-)
