zfs discuss - Dec 2010 - OT: anyone aware how to obtain 1.8.0 for X2100M2?

I realize this is off-topic, but Oracle has completely
screwed up the support site from Sun. I figured someone
here would know how to obtain

Sun Fire X2100 M2 Server Software 1.8.0 Image contents:

    * BIOS is version 3A21
    * SP is updated to version 3.24 (ELOM)
    * Chipset driver is updated to 9.27 

from

http://www.sun.com/servers/entry/x2100/downloads.jsp

I''ve been trying for an hour, and I''m at the end of
my rope.

You have to have a support contract to download BIOS and firmware now.

Eugen,

I would 2nd your observation.

I *do* have several support contracts, and as I review my Oracle 
profile, it does show that I am authorized to download patches, among 
other items.

I really haven''t downloaded a lot since SunSolve was killed off.

Do others on the list have access to download stuff like this?

Or is there some other place with in Oracle''s site that makes
Eugen''s
link obsolete?

Jerry

Login to My Oracle Support, click the Patches & Updates tab, and search 
for patch 10363259.  That is much simpler than what I had to do to 
actually find the patch number.

Hi,

Took me a couple of minutes to find the download for this in my Oracle 
support. Search
for the patch like this .

Patches and Updates Panel -> Patch Search -> Patch Name or Number is : 
10275731

Pretty easy really.

Scott.

PS. I found that patch by using product or family equals x2100  and it 
found it for me easily.
