on page 109
◆ “Installing Fibre Channel firmware on an Emulex CNA” on

ELXCFG and LPUTIL can be used as well, but are not covered in this
guide. For general use instructions of these utilities, refer to Emulex
documentation or “ELXCFG.EXE” on page 195.
Upgrading using a DOS boot diskette
This section deals exclusively with Emulex' former DOS utility,
LP6DUTIL.EXE. This utility was formerly packaged with firmware
and BIOS packages to allow users to perform HBA maintenance and
code loads from DOS.
This LP6DUTIL.EXE utility is no longer packaged with code from
Emulex, but there is currently a DOS Offline Utility kit and manual
available to do wnload from the Emulex website:
http://www.emulex.com/downloads/emulex/cnas-and-hbas/utilities/offline-utilities
If you are in need of a DOS utility to load Boot BIOS code to an HBA,
EMC recommends downloading and using this new DOS Offline
Utility. The user manual for this utility is also available at the above
Emulex website address. If possible, EMC recommends using the
Emulex HBAnyware utility to load HBA/CNA firmware and BIOS
code.
The Emulex CD-ROM contains the latest EMC-approved firmware
and BIOS files at the time of creation of the CD-ROM. If more recent
files exist, you can locate them on the Emulex website. Refer to
“Downloading latest Emulex drivers/firmware/BIOS files” on
page 20.
Follow these steps to upgrade the flash firmware from a
DOS-bootable diskette:
1. Format a 3.5-inch diskette to be system bootable and extract the
firmware and flash utility files from the archive file (.zip or
self-extracting .exe) onto the diskette. Ensure lp6dutil.exe and
the source files are in the same directory. (Refer to Table 2 on
page 31 to ensure the correct .ALL, .AWC, and/or *.PRG file is
used.)
