In offline mode, the Smart Update Firmware DVD boots a small Linux kernel and enables firmware updates to occur on a single server using HP SUM.
In online mode, users can leverage the
autorun
utility to launch HP SUM or browse the DVD to the\hp\swpackages
directory and then execute it directly.
IMPORTANT: Before deploying firmware updates to a target server, be sure that a recent backup of the target server is available in the event the deployment procedure fails. | |
