Storage Controller Card Firmware Compatibility

Firmware on the storage controller (RAID or HBA) must be verified for compatibility with the current Cisco
IMC and BIOS versions that are installed on the server. If not compatible, upgrade or downgrade the storage
controller firmware using the Host Upgrade Utility (HUU) for your firmware release to bring it to a compatible
level.
See the HUU guide for your Cisco IMC release for instructions on downloading and using the utility to bring
server components to compatible levels:
