*If you have Intel Itanium 9100 processors on your rx2660, rx3600, or rx660, you
need firmware that is at least one version greater than the ones listed here.
For cell-based servers, you must access the MP Command Menu and issue the
sysrev command to list the MP firmware revision level. The sysrev command
is available on all HP Integrity servers that have an MP. Note the EFI info fw
command does not display the Management Processor (MP) firmware version on
cell-based Integrity servers.
To check firmware version information on an entry-class Integrity server that
does not have the MP, enter the info fw command at the EFI prompt. Note the
following example:
