2. Click Download Drivers & Software and follow the instructions on the Web page to locate the
Firmware Updater program.
3. Download the ISO image for the Firmware Updater program and the installation instructions in a TXT file.

Notes:
1. Before distributing the firmware updates to a server, ensure that your server can restart successfully
without encountering hardware problems.
