Introduction 24
If the TPM is detected and enabled with Option ROM
Measuring, the installation is silent; the /tpmbypass
switch is not given, and any firmware updated must
be applied to the server.
No pop-up warning appears. A new log file is
generated
(%systemdrive%\cpqsystem\log\cpqstub.log).
Because the installation is silent, the installation is
terminated and cannot continue.
If the TPM is detected and enabled, the installation is
silent, and the /tpmbypass switch is supplied.
The installation occurs.
Other scenarios do not affect the normal installation procedure.
Deploying firmware using the HP Smart Update Firmware - HP
Integrity BL860c/BL870c/BL890c i2 Servers Bundles
You can only deploy this firmware in HP SUM, included in their respective Windows and Linux bundles. For
supported HP SUM versions, see "Support and Limitations ("Obtaining the HP SUM utility" on page 12,
"Support and limitations of HP SUM" on page 13)".
Deploying firmware to the HP Integrity BL860c/BL870c/BL890c i2 Servers is done remotely and is the same
as deploying other firmware like OA or VC with the following exceptions:
• You must specify the IP address of the iLO-3 MP on the server as the target to be updated.
• On the Select Items to be Installed screen, you must choose whether you want to Upload and Activate
or Upload but Do Not Activate. If you choose not to activate immediately, the firmware is only updated
when the server is rebooted.
NOTE: In HP Integrity servers, HP SUM does not support the ability to download the latest
components from ftp.hp.com, as these components are not in the catalog on the HP FTP site.
NOTE: Use the version of HP SUM that comes with the Integrity Bundle when deploying the
firmware to the HP Integrity BL860c/BL870c/BL890c i2 Servers.
