This download supports Intel(R) Server RAID Controllers using software stack 1 and requires a companion diskette containing a firmware image file.
This utility is not compatible with controllers using software stack 2 including the SRCU42X and SRCS16.

The following controllers are supported by this utility:
SRCU42L
SRCU32
SRCS14L
SRCZCR

Attention!
===========
This package will create a floppy diskette that contains the Firmware Recovery Utility (FRU) and for use with Intel?Server RAID Controllers.
The package will extract a copy the firmware recovery utility to a Linux Bootable floppy diskette.  
The Firmware code is not incorporated in this tool and requires a companion file using version 2.42.00-RA72 or 2.42.00-RC72.

This utility supports both the "normal" and "recovery" update modes. 
If the RAID controller firmware is corrupted, you must move the recovery jumper on your controller to the recovery position in order to apply this update.
The Intel(R) Server RAID Controller SRCU32 does not have a recovery jumper and the FRU utility must be used in teh normal mode.

3. If recovery options is used, remove power (unplug the power cords) from the target system, move the recovery jumper on the RAID controller from the "normal" position to the "recovery" position, and install in the target system.
4. Re-apply power and boot the target system to the FRU disk mentioned in step 1.
5. The system will present a menu that lists the installed raid card and prompt for the firmware file needed.
6. Insert the firmware diskette mentioned in step 2.
7. Press the number key associated with your RAID controller as displayed on the menu (usually the number 0 unless you have more than one RAID card installed).
8. The Firmware will be programmed into the RAID controller, when complete you will be prompted to exit.
9. If the jumper was changed in step 3, Power down the target system and remove power (unplug the power cords).
