Upgrading firmware on management processors

The Upgrade Firmware page enables you to update the firmware on your iLO management
processors. It also enables you to designate the location of the firmware image for each management
processor by entering the path or clicking Browse.

NOTE:

Binary images of the firmware for the management processors must be accessible from

the system that is running the migration utility. These binary images can be downloaded from

http://www.hp.com/support/ilo3

.

The upgrade process might take a long time, depending on the number of management processors
selected. The firmware upgrade of a single management processor can take as long as 5 minutes
to complete. If an upgrade fails, a message is displayed in the Results column, and the utility
continues to upgrade the other discovered management processors.

IMPORTANT:

HP recommends that you test the upgrade process and verify the results in a test

environment before running the utility on a production network. An incomplete transfer of the
firmware image to a management processor might result in having to locally reprogram the
management processor.

To upgrade the firmware on your management processors:
1.

Navigate to the Upgrade Firmware on Management Processors window, as shown in

Figure 111 (page 200)

.

2.

Select the management processors to upgrade.

3.

For each discovered management processor type, enter the correct pathname to the firmware
image or browse to the image.
