Viewing firmware mismatch details (HP Integrity servers only)

If you have a multi-blade server, you might encounter a situation where you have blades or partitions
that are running different firmware versions. As part of the update procedures, HP SUM will notify
you that there is a firmware mismatch by displaying either Mismatch Found or Mismatch
Found Update Required

. Click the message to go to the View Firmware Details screen, where

you can view the mismatch details. HP SUM will resolve the firmware mismatch when it installs the
new updates.

Installation options

CAUTION:

The ability to force the installation of components is generally unnecessary and is not

recommended. Incorrect use could result in data loss or system failure or both.

If you set the installation options from the Review/Install Updates screen, you set these options for
all the targets. If you want to set installation options for specific targets, click Select Bundles or
Select Components for the target, and then click Installation Options for the target.
