NOTE: A firmware upgrade will cause the server and ILOM to
      be reset. It is recommended that a clean shutdown of
      the server be done prior to the upgrade procedure.
      An upgrade takes about 6 minutes to complete. ILOM
      will enter a special mode to load new firmware. No
      other tasks can be performed in ILOM until the
      firmware upgrade is complete and ILOM is reset.
Are you sure you want to load the specified file (y/n)? y
Do you want to preserve the configuration (y/n)? y
 
After few minutes ILOM will be up automatically and try to connnect again.
