Updating iDRAC6 Firmware

NOTE:
If iDRAC6 firmware becomes corrupted, as could occur if iDRAC6 firmware
update is interrupted before it completes, you can recover iDRAC6 using the CMC.
See your CMC Firmware User Guide for instructions.
NOTE:
The firmware update, by default, retains the current iDRAC6 settings.
During the update process, you have the option to reset iDRAC6 configuration to the
factory defaults. If you set the configuration to the factory defaults, external
network access will be disabled when the update completes. You must enable and
configure the network using iDRAC6 Configuration Utility or the CMC Web interface.
1 Start iDRAC6 Web interface.
2 Click System→ Remote Access→ iDRAC6, and then click the Update tab.
