Users with the Configure iLO 2 privilege (configure local device settings) can update firmware. Firmwarecan be updated by any user if the iLO 2 Security Override Switch ("iLO 2 Security Override Switchadministration" on page 46) is set. Firmware updates must be run from an Administrator or root contexton the host operating system.To update the iLO 2 choose one of the following methods:• Online firmware update—Download the appropriate operating system component and run itfrom the Administrator or root context of the operating system. The online firmware update softwareruns on the host operating system and updates the iLO 2 firmware without requiring you to log in toiLO 2.• Offline firmware update for SmartStart maintenance—Download iLO 2 firmware imagefile you plan to install and refer to the "Upgrading iLO 2 using a browser (on page 20)" section.• Firmware Maintenance CD-ROM—Download the component to create a bootable CD-ROMthat contains many firmware updates for ProLiant servers and options.• Scripting with CPQLOCFG—Download CPQLOCFG component to get the network-basedscripting utility, CPQLOCFG. CPQLOCFG enables you to use RIBCL scripts that perform firmwareupdates, iLO 2 configuration, and iLO 2 operations in bulk, securely over the network. Linux usersshould consider reviewing the HP Lights-Out XML PERL Scripting Samples for Linux.• Scripting with HPONCFG—Download HPONCFG component to get the host-based scriptingutility, HPONCFG. This utility enables you to use RIBCL scripts that perform firmware updates, Lights-Out processor configuration and operations in bulk, from Administrator or root account access onsupported host operating systems.• HP Directories Support for Management Processors—Download the HP DirectoriesSupport for Management Processors executable to the get directory support components. One of thecomponents, HPLOMIG, can be used to discover iLO, iLO 2, RILOE, and RILOE II processors andupdate their firmware. You do not have to use directory integration to take advantage of thisfunctionality.Upgrading iLO 2 using a browserThe firmware upgrade can be completed from any network client using a supported browser.
