Drivers
IMPORTANT:
Always perform a backup before installing or updating device drivers.
The server includes new hardware that may not have driver support on all OS installation media.
If you are installing an Intelligent Provisioning-supported OS, use Intelligent Provisioning on page 135 and
its Configure and Install feature to install the OS and latest supported drivers.
If you do not use Intelligent Provisioning to install an OS, drivers for some of the new hardware are required.
These drivers, as well as other option drivers, ROM images, and value-add software can be downloaded as
part of an SPP.
If you are installing drivers from SPP, be sure that you are using the latest SPP version that your server
supports. To verify that your server is using the latest supported version and for more information about SPP,
see the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website.
To locate the drivers for a particular server, go to the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Support Center website.
Under Select your HPE product, enter the product name or number and click Go.
Software and firmware
Update software and firmware before using the server for the first time, unless any installed software or
components require an older version.
For system software and firmware updates, use one of the following sources:
• Download the SPP from the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website.
• Download individual drivers, firmware, or other systems software components from the server product
page in the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Support Center website.
Operating System Version Support
For information about specific versions of a supported operating system, refer to the operating system
support matrix.
