NOTE: If the VCs are managed by HP Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager (VCEM), they must first be put into maintenance mode before HP SUM can perform the VC firmware updates. After they are in maintenance or firmware mode, HP SUM 5.1.0 and SPP 2012.6.0 can be used to update them. After the update, put the VCs back into normal production mode. Virtual Connect (VC) update stops after discovery and installation never begins if the Onboard Administrator credentials are different from the VC credentials VC update stops after discovery and installation fails to initiate if the Onboard Administrator (OA) credentials are different from the VC credentials. This only occurs when using the command line and Input File modes for HP SUM. Suggested action: Use HP SUM in GUI mode.
