StorCli: LSI Drive firmware update

To flash the drive firmware you require an LSI raid card and StorCli.

Run storcli on the respective OS (in this example it was done on Centos)

You need to find out the controller id you wish to target, the expander you wish you target and the slot (drive) you wish to flash.

All this information can be found using (assuming you already know the controller id):

./storcli64 /c0 show |more

Once you have the information required you can run the flashing command per drive:

./storcli64 /c0 /e8/s0 download src=/mnt/usb/storcli/0101KX1.bin

This is of course a example command, the ids used may change and the firmware directory location will be different.

Check the firmware

[root@localhost fw]# /opt/MegaRAID/storcli/storcli64 /c0 /e8 /s16 show all | grep Firmware
Firmware Revision = 1A01
