I need to figure out what firmware I should be using to flash the Dell Mezzanine SAS Controller for C6100 - Y8Y69 into IT mode. I have the lsiutil installed and when i try to use the SAS3081E firmware, im getting:

root@metroplex:~/lsiutil/Solaris# ./lsiutil.i386

LSI Logic MPT Configuration Utility, Version 1.63, June 4, 2009

1 MPT Port found

Port Name Chip Vendor/Type/Rev MPT Rev Firmware Rev IOC
1. mpt0 LSI Logic SAS1068E B3 105 011b0000 0

Enter firmware filename: /root/lsi-firmware/Flash/LSI/3081ETB3.fw
Firmware image's version is MPTFW-01.33.00.00-IT
LSI Logic
MPTSASFW-00.00.00.00
LSI Logic

Image's Product ID appears to be wrong!
Current firmware Product ID is 2704
Image's firmware Product ID is 2204
Image's attached NVDATA appears to be for the wrong board!
Current Board Name is ID4282
Image's Board Name is SAS3081E

Are you sure you want to continue? [Yes or No, default is No] n
It might work, but I am a bit scared to try. Any recommendations? I want to use this node for a ZFS storage array.

Hey MACscr,
Just wanted to let you know that I was able to flash to IT mode using this - How to flash A IBM ServeRaid BR10i RAID Controller to LSI SAS 1068E firmware (IT) | VIRTUALISTIC
The files are here - LSI SAS1068E Controllers(P21)

Just thought I'd let you know and anyone else trying to figure out how.
This forum isn't too helpful to newcomers.. kinda sad.
Thank you guys for the information! I, too, wanted to do some updates to the mezzanine raid controller and found this post in a quick google search.
