HP Smart Update Manager 6.4.1 Release Notes

3. When running HP SUM on Windows, if the iLO Channel Interface Driver is not installed, the iLO
FW will show a version of 'None' as the installed version and 'Ready for Installation' as the status
on the Select Bundle or Select Component page. This applies to firmware for iLO 2, 3, and 4.
When you try to update the firmware, it might not update if it is already up to date.
4. Broadcom NICs are not discovered by HP SUM unless the appropriate driver is installed and all
Ethernet ports are up. You can bring up the Ethernet port by using the following command:
# ifup ethx
or
# ifup ethx up
To update the firmware for Broadcom NIC, use the following steps:
• Install the appropriate Windows or Linux driver found in the SPP. If updating a Linux server,
the driver can also be retrieved from the SDR or the Linux distro.
• Enable all the Ethernet ports
• Run the Broadcom FW upgrade component

Changing the default location of the HP SUM temporary files
Use one of the following methods to change the default location where HP SUM stores temporary files:
• Create the directory /tmp/HPSUM (Linux) or %temp%/HPSUM (Windows). Create a symbolic link
to the directory where you want the files to be stored before launching HP SUM. HP SUM stores
all temporary files in the specified directory.
• Place a version of the hpsum.ini file in the directory from which you launch HP SUM. Add the
following lines:
[Engine]
temp_dir=<directory path>/
HP SUM places all temporary files in the specified directory except for the binary.log.
NOTE: For all systems, the path must include the / delimiter.
HP SUM takes longer than expected to deploy updates to multiple nodes
Suggested Action: Update a maximum 10 notes from the GUI and a maximum 20 nodes by input file.
