Updating the firmware for multiple servers
Prerequisites
• Each member of the selected iLO Federation group has granted the Configure iLO Settings privilege
to the group.
• An iLO license that supports this feature is installed.
Procedure
1.
Download the supported firmware from the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Support Center:
For more information, see
Obtaining the iLO firmware image file
supported server firmware image files
on page 72.
2.
Save the firmware file to a web server.
3.
Click
iLO Federation
in the navigation tree, and then click the
Group Firmware Update
tab.
4.
Select a group from the
Selected Group
menu.
All of the systems in the selected group will be affected when you initiate a firmware update on this
page.
5.
Optional: To filter the list of affected systems, click a firmware version, flash status, or TPM or TM
Option ROM Measuring status link.
CAUTION:
If you attempt to perform a system ROM or iLO firmware update on a server with a TPM or TM
installed, iLO prompts you to suspend or back up any software that stores information on the
TPM or TM. For example, if you use drive encryption software, suspend it before initiating a
firmware update. Failure to follow these instructions might result in losing access to your data.
6.
In the
Firmware Update
section, enter the URL to the firmware file on your web server, and then click
Update Firmware
.
The URL to enter is similar to the following:
http://<server.example.com>/<subdir>/iLO
5_<yyy>.bin
, where
<yyy>
represents the firmware version.
Each selected system downloads the firmware image and attempts to flash it.
The
Flash Status
section is updated and iLO notifies you that the update is in progress. When the
update is complete, the
Firmware Information
section is updated.
If a firmware image is not valid for a system or has a bad/missing signature, iLO rejects the image and
the
Flash Status
section shows an error for the affected system.
