## Update Firmware to Enable Zoning

If your SPARC T3-1 server requires disk zoning, but does not have the required minimum system firmware level and/or the LSI firmware on the backplane does not have patch 147034-01, you must perform the following step for the controllers to function properly.

| Caution - Be certain to back up any data stored on the disks before you install this patch. You can restore the files after the patch is installed.

- Apply patch 147034-01 to the LSI firmware on the disk backplane.

  This patch causes the backplane to be partitioned into the two eight-disk zones described in Disk Zones for SPARC T3-1 Servers With Sixteen-Disk Backplanes.

  Tip - When zoning is enabled, `devalias` for slots 8-15 will be incorrect unless the system firmware is updated to either 8.0.5.b (or a higher 8.0 level) or to 8.1.0 (or higher). See Minimum System Firmware for Valid `devalias` in Upper Disk Locations for more information.
