Before you can perform a batch update, you must download the firmware file from the
Emulex website and extract it into a directory on your local drive.
Note: On the system where OneCommand Manager for VMware vCenter is installed,
make sure the port numbers configured during the installation are open and
dedicated to the OneCommand Manager for VMware vCenter server only. No
other service should be listening on this port.

1. Select a cluster in the vSphere console tree-view and select the Emulex
OneCommand tab.
