Upgrading the driver/firmware on all you system components is just as important as the server itself. 

I put this together referencing a selection of Emulex cards with their firmware/boot code and latest driver versions. 

Please check the Emulex site for important install/upgrade information and check with your storage infrastructure team to ensure that what’s being deployed is compatible with your SAN infrastructure. Upgrading the firmware on your card should not result in an outage, but do test on a development system first.
