Updating an individual server locally To update an individual server using Automatic Mode, use the c-Class SUV cable. This cable connects to the front of a blade and enables a USB CD or DVD drive to connect to a server. In this local installation, the Automatic Mode ISO image must be burned to a physical CD and placed in the USB CD or DVD drive. After you place the physical CD in the USB CD or DVD drive, you can boot the server, and Automatic Mode flashes all firmware on the server. • If the firmware update process is completed successfully, the UID light turns off, the CD ejects, and the server reboots. • If the firmware update process fails as indicated by the UID light being left on solid, the video can be plugged into the c-Class SUV cable, or an iLO remote console session can be initiated. Automatic Mode must have the error logged in a vi editor window to determine the cause of the firmware update failure. NOTE: If a server does not have a front connection for the SUV-cable, they must follow the steps indicated in the "Updating an individual server remotely" (page 19) section. Updating an individual server remotely To update an individual BladeSystem server remotely using Automatic Mode, you must download the Automatic Mode ISO image to either a hard drive or USB key. You must attach the USB key to a workstation located on the same network as the BladeSystem server iLO Management Port. To download the ISO image on a USB key and use the iLO Virtual Media functionality to deploy firmware updates: 1. Plug in the USB key with the Automatic Mode ISO image or use the Automatic Mode ISO image from a hard drive on a remote client computer. 2. Using Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox, browse to ILO Management Port. 3. Log in with your iLO administrative credentials. 4. Click the virtual media tab, and then click Virtual Media Applet. 5. In the Virtual CD/DVD-ROM section, click Local Image File. 6. Click Browse. 7. Locate the ISO image, and then click Open. 8. To connect to the ISO image, click Connect. NOTE: Do not close the virtual media web page, or it might disconnect the ISO image. 9. Return to the iLO website. 10. Click the Power Management tab. 11. Using the Momentary Press button, power up the server. NOTE: If the server is powered up, click the Momentary Press button to shut down the server, and then click the Momentary Press button again to power it back up. 12. Click OK when prompted to power up the server. 13. Select Remote Console or ensure the disconnection of the Local Image File to indicate flash is finished. A remote console session is terminated if the iLO firmware is updated during the Automatic Mode firmware update process.
