Firmware update typically takes 10 minutes for a controller having current CPLD firmware, or 20
minutes for a controller having downlevel CPLD firmware. If the controller enclosure has attached drive
enclosures, allow additional time for each expansion module (EMP) to be updated. This typically takes
2.5 minutes for an EMP in each P2000 drive enclosure or 3 minutes for an EMP in each MSA2000
drive enclosure. Expansion modules in D2700 or MSA70 drive enclosures must be updated separately.
NOTE:

update, use another client, or use another FTP application.
When firmware update on the local controller is complete, the message Operation Complete is

If PFU is enabled, allow an additional 10–20 minutes for the partner controller to be updated.

Updating expansion-module firmware
A drive enclosure can contain one or two expansion modules. Each expansion module contains an
enclosure management processor (EMP). All modules of the same model should run the same firmware
version.
You can update the firmware in each expansion module by loading a firmware file obtained from the HP
web download site, http://www.hp.com/go/p2000. To install an HP ROM Flash Component or firmware
Smart Component, follow the instructions on the HP web site; otherwise, to install a firmware binary file,
follow the steps below.
You can specify to update all expansion modules or only specific expansion modules. If you specify to
update all expansion modules and the system contains more than one type of enclosure, the update will be
attempted on all enclosures in the system. The update will only succeed for enclosures whose type matches
the file, and will fail for enclosures of other types.
Do not perform a power cycle or controller restart during a firmware update. If the
