Updating firmware
Advanced Server products and their installed hardware options are preloaded with the latest firmware.
However, updated firmware might be available. You can use Intelligent Provisioning to find and deploy
available updates.
• For HA800 products, use the Intelligent Provisioning Firmware Update utility to find and apply the
latest firmware.
NOTE: The Intelligent Provisioning Firmware Update utility reflects the latest updates available in the
baseline defined in the latest SPV. Updates that are not in the SPV baseline do not appear on the
updates list.
You can use the Firmware Update utility to roll back to older versions of components.
