Online Flash components
This component provides updated system firmware that can be installed directly on supported operating
systems. Additionally, when used in conjunction with SUM, this Smart Component allows the user to
update firmware on remote servers from a central location. This remote deployment capability eliminates
the need for the user to be physically present at the server to perform a firmware update.
Drivers
IMPORTANT: Always perform a backup before installing or updating device drivers.
Update drivers using any of the following Smart Update Solutions:
• Download the latest Service Pack for ProLiant (includes Smart Update Manager)
• Create a custom SPP download
• Download Smart Update Manager for Linux
• Download specific drivers
To locate the drivers for a server, go to the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Support Center website,
and then search for the product name/number.
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 (http://www.hpe.com/servers/spp/
download).
• Download individual drivers, firmware, or other system software components from the server product
page in the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Support Center website (http://www.hpe.com/support/
hpesc).
