13. Configuring UEFI for FCoE
Note: If you have several adapters in your system, the UEFI system firmware or boot
code uses the highest version driver installed on any of the adapters. Adapters
with older versions of EFIBoot are managed by the more recent version, but
only as long as the adapter with the most recent version is in the system. The
latest firmware and boot code must be installed on each adapter in the system to
ensure that each adapter runs the latest firmware and boot code.
