Description Jim Carlton 2008-03-29 11:27:55 UTC

The menu item "Update Firmware" is confusing and we've had several users (including editors) confused by its operation.

Would it be possible to compare the current Controller fw revision with the fw revision available on SC/SN and dynamically change the message as follows:

If Controller FW == available FW then the menu should be "Reload Firmware"
If Controller FW < available FW then the menu should be "Update Firmware"
If Controller FW > available FW then the menu should be "Downgrade Firmware"

Other options would be fine, as long as the result is intuitive/obvious to the end user.

I believe some of this is addressed with the fix for  Bug 6019.
