In case of Single Controller firmware update, it's always suggested to do the same from CLI or FTP method or from SMU by supplying bin file or firmware file because if you try with the help of exe file eventhough you disable Partner firmware update disabled but after completion of one Controller firmware update it will automatically enable partner firmware update and look for partner controller to start the firmware update. This is because exe file is smart component.
To update controller module firmware from SMU by disabling Partner firmware update first,
1. Perform one of the following:
In the banner, click the system panel and select Update Firmware.
In the System topic, select Action > Update Firmware.
The Update Firmware panel opens. The Update Controller Modules tab shows versions of firmware components that are currently installed in each controller.
2. Click Browse and select the firmware file to install.
3. Click OK. A panel shows firmware-update progress.
The process starts by validating the firmware file:
If the file is invalid, verify that you specified the correct firmware file. If you did, try downloading it again from the source location.
If the file is valid, the process continues

From error screenshot it looks to me one controller firmware update completed and then it's look for partner controller when other controller not available that time it throws error as below,
"ERROR: System health insufficient to support firmware update.
Reason: Fail
At least one controller is not up
"

Regarding the error from FTP method, it looks like some firewall issue where Port 54157 not having permission. I hope in your MSA array FTP is enabled as I have suggested earlier. Hope you have used admin user to do the firmware update from FTP console. May be good to share step by step screenshot so that I can understand if anything is missing out.
Hope this helps!
