Smart Update Firmware DVD Automatic Deployment Mode 19

Smart Update Firmware DVD Automatic

Deployment Mode

Overview

HP Smart Update DVD, in conjunction with Release Sets, provide a collection of firmware smart

components that have been tested together in complex industry-like scenarios to ensure compatibility

across varying firmware and software stacks. The tool is designed for users who do not have an installed

operating system on their blades or who want an unattended, automated method of deploying firmware

in an offline environment. Because the tool requires you to boot to it, you must take the server offline

temporarily to complete the firmware update.

Automatic Mode supports the following firmware types:

• System ROM

• iLO 2

• Broadcom NIC

• Smart Array Controllers

• SAS and SATA hard drive firmware behind Smart Array Controllers

• Emulex, QLogic, and Brocade Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters

• Tape Blade

• PowerPIC

To determine the firmware and software to update for your BladeSystem products, see the Firmware

Compatibility Chart (

Offline Automatic Mode is useful for those customers who:

• Want an automated way to update a blade firmware

• Do not need to update infrastructure firmware at the same time

• Want to leverage the BladeSystem enclosure capability to load an ISO image to multiple server

blades simultaneously

• Do not need feedback during the update process

• Do not need log files at the conclusion of the installation for archiving or debugging purposes

• Need to support devices that can only be updated offline

• Need to update firmware on multiple server blades simultaneously

• Need to update firmware using iLO 2’s virtual media
