Intel S2600WFTF Server Board OFU Firmware 02.01.0015

This update package includes the following production-level system firmware updates:

- System BIOS - 02.01.0015
- ME Firmware - 04.01.04.601
- BMC Firmware - 2.88.6999d21a
- FRUSDR - 2.03
- Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory Firmware - 01.02.00.5446

Important notes:

- OFU utility with flashupdt tool does not support PMEM FW update, please refer to "PMEM_Update_Intructions.txt" part of this package for instructions to update PMEM.
- This SFUP package includes the FW 01.02.00.5446 for Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory (PMEM), if you received your PMEM DIMMs with a different FW, please install this one.
- This Update package must be installed using Intel One-boot Flash Update (OFU) V14.1 Build 28
- Starting from BMC v2.86, BMC does not allow upload .key files and only accepts .pem file for SSL certificate.
- If uploaded SSL Certificate or Key files fail to format checking, BMC will remove the invalid format file before starting BMC EWS and re-generate a self-signed certificate to ensure the BMC EWS can boot up successfully. Please consult TA-1176 for more details
- Starting from BMC v2.88, Purley platfomrs only support SSL certificate which is equal to or longer than 2048 bit.
- A security issue was fixed in Purley platforms. BMC credential is required to access files in internal virtual media from BMC v2.88.
- Issue:[Internal Virtual Media] Files in internal virtual media are accessible without BMC credential
- Starting from BMC v2.88, EWS Active Directory should allow domain name and user name longer than 16 characters.
- The AD Setting will be cleared after downgrade to v2.86 or lower BMC versions if the Domain Name is equal to or longer than 32 characters.
- Starting from BMC 2.22.59c3b83a, when KCS Policy Control Mode is configured as "Deny ALL" on BMC EWS, BMC and FRUSDR cannot be upgraded/downgraded as expected behavior.
- Updates can still be performed via Redfish or BMC EWS

About Firmware Updates:

Applying a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your unit can bring various enhancements, include workarounds for diverse problems encountered by the device, and improve or add newly developed features.

On the other hand, downgrading the firmware version can recover the device's functionality in the event of a software update either turning up faulty or causing the unit's overall performance to drop. However, bear in mind that applying an older firmware isn't recommended and might not always be possible.

When it comes to the update steps, due to the large variety of devices and numerous ways for installing a new firmware, it is recommended that you carefully read and understand the upgrade steps, and consider applying a different firmware only when you have familiarized yourself with the update method.

As the installation process is most of the times quite risky, this step should be taken by users that have the ability to successfully complete the update; regular users may initiate it at their own risk. Moreover, it's best that this task be performed in a steady power environment such as the one ensured by a UPS unit.

Therefore, if you consider applying this release, hit the download button, take into account all the aforementioned aspects, and update the device's firmware. Also make sure you constantly check with our website to ensure that you don't miss a single new release.
