IBM ServeRAID update on 5.0.6.

Can anyone one help? I'm getting "WARNING: Sdsk: Spuroius interrupt" on an
IBM xSeries server. Upon investigation, I found a note from IBM concerning
this problem. They state that to fix this, you need to update the ServeRAID
drivers to at least version 4.80. However, the web page link is bring me to
version 7.00 of the ServeRAID drivers.

IGR-4XQR6Q&loc=en_CA&cs=utf-8&cc=ca&lang=en


I would like to locate info on:

1) What is needed to do to update, from version 4.50 of the ServeRAID
drivers, to 7.00?


2) Do I need to include firmware of ServeRAID card and/or server BIOS?


3) Can/should this be done as an in-place upgrade or do I need to do a
complete re-install?


4) Will I not loose the RAID-1 disk set up or do I need to rebuild the RAID 1
disk?


5) Will the 7.00 version of the drivers support Open Server 5.0.6 or must I
update the a newer version?
