Power Cycle is required to complete the update process.

Tool execution completed with the following status: All operations completed successfully.
Press any key to exit.
  1. Wait few minutes for completing the upgrade process, you will find “All operations completed successfully” shown on screen after it completed, and follow the message to exit the utility.  
  2. Power OFF and ON to apply the changes. 
  3. Check nvm version from one of Ethernet device of NMC1001 (bb1p0 as an example) 
# ethtool -i b01p0
driver: i40e
