Version:2009.07.11(A) (10 Sep 2009)

Upgrade Requirement:
Recommended - HPE recommends users update to this version at their earliest convenience.

Resolved an issue where the system may hang while booting the OS when a non-bootable USB 1.1 Mass Storage device, such as a USB security key, is plugged into the system.

Resolved an issue where certain sound cards would not function properly when installed in PCI-X slots off the optional PCI-X riser.

Resolved an issue where the server could hang when pressing the F8 Configuration Utility key during POST for an installed HP SmartArray controller when an Administrator Password is set from the ROM Based Setup Utility (RBSU).

Added support for Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Release 2.


Version:2008.06.20 (A) (1 Aug 2008)
Added support for the latest revision of the Intel Dual-Core Xeon E3100-series Processors and the Intel Quad-Core Xeon x3300-series Processors.

Added support for Generation 2 (3.0 Gb/s) SATA Hard Drives. This revision of the System ROM is required for proper operation of the embedded SATA solution when a Generation 2 (3.0 Gb/s) SATA hard drive is installed in the server.


Version:2008.04.03 (A) (16 Apr 2008)
Resolved an issue where enabling Drive Write Cache from the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) did not actually enable this functionality for hard drives attached to the embedded SATA controller in non-RAID mode.

Resolved an issue where the System ROM would not honor the Standard Boot Order (IPL) when certain formatted CD/DVDs are installed. This issue is seen when a Microsoft Windows ® CD is installed but the user does not select to boot from the CD when prompted by the media.

Added support for Quad-Core Intel(R) Xeon(R) 3300 series processors.

Version:2008.02.26 (A) (3 Apr 2008)
Resolved an issue where the system could not boot from certain DVD drives when installed on the DL320 G5p.

Updated to properly display the Celeron processor string during POST if an Intel Celeron processor is installed in the system.

Added support for Intel Dual-Core Intel(R) Xeon(R) E3110 processor.

Added a new ROM-Based Setup Advanced Option to enable or disable the processors low power halt state (Intel C1E). With previous System ROM versions, this feature was always enabled and there was no method to disable it. When enabled, this feature significantly lowers power usage with negligible affects on performance. HP recommends leaving this feature enabled. The RBSU option provides the customer an ability to remove any concerns that having this feature enabled may adversely affect performance.

Added support for allowing a user to enter the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) or to boot an IDE CD-ROM when an unsupported processor is detected. Previously, the System ROM would only allow the user to boot a ROMPaq floppy or ROMPaq USB DriveKey in order to update the System ROM. The user can now update their System ROM version via CD-ROM in an unsupported processor configuration.

Added support for booting USB DriveKeys that are formatted using file systems other than those typically used in Microsoft Operating Systems. USB DriveKeys formatted using Linux based file systems may now be bootable with the addition of this support.

Added support for allowing a user to change the USB DriveKey boot sequence from the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU). Currently, the system will always boot from an internal DriveKey when there are DriveKeys attached to both the internal and external USB ports.

Added a new ROM-Based Setup (RBSU) option that allows preventing the Server Asset Tag from being erased when the user selects the Restore Default System Settings option from RBSU. Previously, and by default with this version of the System ROM, the customer-defined Server Asset Tag is erased whenever the default system configuration is restored. This new feature is useful for customers who use the Server Asset Tag for asset tracking and who do not want this data to be erased. This new option is in the Advanced Options menu and is referred to as Asset Tag Protection. By default, this option is Unlocked. Set this value to Locked if the user wishes to prevent the Server Asset Tag from being erased.


Version:2007.12.06 (A) (14 Dec 2007)
Resolved an issue where the System ROM would not detect certain SATA Optical Devices during boot. This issue was seen with certain SATA CD-RW drives.

Version:2007.11.15 (A) (19 Nov 2007)

Updated to properly display the Celeron processor string during POST if an Intel Celeron processor is installed in the system.

Added support for Intel Dual-Core Intel(R) Xeon(R) E3110 processor.

Added a new ROM-Based Setup Advanced Option to enable or disable the processors low power halt state (Intel C1E). With previous System ROM versions, this feature was always enabled and there was no method to disable it. When enabled, this feature significantly lowers power usage with negligible affects on performance. HP recommends leaving this feature enabled. The RBSU option provides the customer an ability to remove any concerns that having this feature enabled may adversely affect performance.

Added support for allowing a user to enter the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) or to boot an IDE CD-ROM when an unsupported processor is detected. Previously, the System ROM would only allow the user to boot a ROMPaq floppy or ROMPaq USB DriveKey in order to update the System ROM. The user can now update their System ROM version via CD-ROM in an unsupported processor configuration.

Added support for booting USB DriveKeys that are formatted using file systems other than those typically used in Microsoft Operating Systems. USB DriveKeys formatted using Linux based file systems may now be bootable with the addition of this support.

Added support for allowing a user to change the USB DriveKey boot sequence from the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU). Currently, the system will always boot from an internal DriveKey when there are DriveKeys attached to both the internal and external USB ports.

Added a new ROM-Based Setup (RBSU) option that allows preventing the Server Asset Tag from being erased when the user selects the Restore Default System Settings option from RBSU. Previously, and by default with this version of the System ROM, the customer-defined Server Asset Tag is erased whenever the default system configuration is restored. This new feature is useful for customers who use the Server Asset Tag for asset tracking and who do not want this data to be erased. This new option is in the Advanced Options menu and is referred to as Asset Tag Protection. By default, this option is Unlocked. Set this value to Locked if the user wishes to prevent the Server Asset Tag from being erased.


Version:2007.12.06 (A) (14 Dec 2007)
Resolved an issue where the System ROM would not detect certain SATA Optical Devices during boot. This issue was seen with certain SATA CD-RW drives.

Version:2007.11.15 (A) (19 Nov 2007)
Initial release.

Added support for booting USB DriveKeys that are formatted using file systems other than those typically used in Microsoft Operating Systems. USB DriveKeys formatted using Linux based file systems may now be bootable with the addition of this support.

Added support for allowing a user to change the USB DriveKey boot sequence from the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU). Currently, the system will always boot from an internal DriveKey when there are DriveKeys attached to both the internal and external USB ports.

Added a new ROM-Based Setup (RBSU) option that allows preventing the Server Asset Tag from being erased when the user selects the Restore Default System Settings option from RBSU. Previously, and by default with this version of the System ROM, the customer-defined Server Asset Tag is erased whenever the default system configuration is restored. This new feature is useful for customers who use the Server Asset Tag for asset tracking and who do not want this data to be erased. This new option is in the Advanced Options menu and is referred to as Asset Tag Protection. By default, this option is Unlocked. Set this value to Locked if the user wishes to prevent the Server Asset Tag from being erased.

This revision of the System ROM contains an updated version of Intel’s microcode for affected processors that addresses this issue. Due to the potential severity of the issue addressed in this revision of the System ROM, this System ROM upgrade is considered a critical fix. HP strongly recommends immediate update to firmware revisions with required critical fixes. Note: This processor issue has resulted in the following error being logged to the Integrated Management Log on servers configured with the HP ProLiant Health Management Agents when configured in a Microsoft Virtual Server environment with large numbers of Virtual Machines (VM) simultaneously subjected to a heavy I/O workload (and may occur in other operating system environments): 'An Unrecoverable System Error has occurred (Error code 0x0000002D, 0x00000000)'.

Known Issues:

Version:2009.07.11(A) (10 Sep 2009)

Upgrade Requirement:
Recommended - HPE recommends users update to this version at their earliest convenience.

Resolved an issue where the system may hang while booting the OS when a non-bootable USB 1.1 Mass Storage device, such as a USB security key, is plugged into the system.

Resolved an issue where certain sound cards would not function properly when installed in PCI-X slots off the optional PCI-X riser.

Resolved an issue where the server could hang when pressing the F8 Configuration Utility key during POST for an installed HP SmartArray controller when an Administrator Password is set from the ROM Based Setup Utility (RBSU).

Added support for Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Release 2.


Version:2008.06.20 (A) (1 Aug 2008)
Added support for the latest revision of the Intel Dual-Core Xeon E3100-series Processors and the Intel Quad-Core Xeon x3300-series Processors.

Added support for Generation 2 (3.0 Gb/s) SATA Hard Drives. This revision of the System ROM is required for proper operation of the embedded SATA solution when a Generation 2 (3.0 Gb/s) SATA hard drive is installed in the server.


Version:2008.04.03 (A) (16 Apr 2008)
Resolved an issue where enabling Drive Write Cache from the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) did not actually enable this functionality for hard drives attached to the embedded SATA controller in non-RAID mode.

Resolved an issue where the System ROM would not honor the Standard Boot Order (IPL) when certain formatted CD/DVDs are installed. This issue is seen when a Microsoft Windows ® CD is installed but the user does not select to boot from the CD when prompted by the media.

Added support for Quad-Core Intel(R) Xeon(R) 3300 series processors.

Version:2008.02.26 (A) (3 Apr 2008)
Resolved an issue where the system could not boot from certain DVD drives when installed on the DL320 G5p.

Updated to properly display the Celeron processor string during POST if an Intel Celeron processor is installed in the system.

Added support for Intel Dual-Core Intel(R) Xeon(R) E3110 processor.

Added a new ROM-Based Setup Advanced Option to enable or disable the processors low power halt state (Intel C1E). With previous System ROM versions, this feature was always enabled and there was no method to disable it. When enabled, this feature significantly lowers power usage with negligible affects on performance. HP recommends leaving this feature enabled. The RBSU option provides the customer an ability to remove any concerns that having this feature enabled may adversely affect performance.

Added support for allowing a user to enter the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) or to boot an IDE CD-ROM when an unsupported processor is detected. Previously, the System ROM would only allow the user to boot a ROMPaq floppy or ROMPaq USB DriveKey in order to update the System ROM. The user can now update their System ROM version via CD-ROM in an unsupported processor configuration.

Added support for booting USB DriveKeys that are formatted using file systems other than those typically used in Microsoft Operating Systems. USB DriveKeys formatted using Linux based file systems may now be bootable with the addition of this support.

Added support for allowing a user to change the USB DriveKey boot sequence from the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU). Currently, the system will always boot from an internal DriveKey when there are DriveKeys attached to both the internal and external USB ports.

Added a new ROM-Based Setup (RBSU) option that allows preventing the Server Asset Tag from being erased when the user selects the Restore Default System Settings option from RBSU. Previously, and by default with this version of the System ROM, the customer-defined Server Asset Tag is erased whenever the default system configuration is restored. This new feature is useful for customers who use the Server Asset Tag for asset tracking and who do not want this data to be erased. This new option is in the Advanced Options menu and is referred to as Asset Tag Protection. By default, this option is Unlocked. Set this value to Locked if the user wishes to prevent the Server Asset Tag from being erased.


Version:2007.12.06 (A) (14 Dec 2007)
Resolved an issue where the System ROM would not detect certain SATA Optical Devices during boot. This issue was seen with certain SATA CD-RW drives.

Version:2007.11.15 (A) (19 Nov 2007)
Initial release.
