Having no idea how to do this I read the Oracle documentation which didn't appear to show me how to do this via the USB (as I had a stick available and not much time to do it - server was down having a CPU swap out).
Process:
1. Download from MOS (which can be trial in itself!)
2. Copy over to the USB stick (I copied the file over and unzipped it on the USB stick them renamed the directory to "Images").
3. Insert USB stick into the back of the server.
4. Log into the XSCF.
5. Check the version of the current XCP
# version -c xcp -v
6. Copy over the file to the XSCF
# getflashimage file:///media/usb_msd/images/FFXCP1113.tar.gz
7. Check the version of the XCP uploaded
# version -c xcp -v -t
8. Check the file is okay.
# flashupdate -c check -m xcp -s 1113
9. Install the firmware.# flashupdate -c update -m xcp -s 1113
NOTE: The install will take a while and will reboot once as the Current and Reserve areas are updated. If you are connecting over the LAN you will lose connectivity during the reboot but the install will continue.
10. Reboot the XSCF to apply the Firmware to the Current area.
# rebootxscf
