![]() After fighting with it and learning the hard way that this new system is very different from before, I still have yet to complete all firmware updates available for our ESXi 6.7 hosts.įirst, in the past (with 6.5 and 6.7 Gen8 systems), we attached virtual media (ISO file via URL) as a CD/DVD to the iLO console of the server (while in maintenance mode) and booted from the SPP (Service Pack for ProLiant) ISO into the SUM software it comes with and loads into memory (a lightweight SUSE Linux install with a GUI that allows "Automatic" updates or "Interactive" updates). We're trying to run firmware updates for those servers and HPE has drastically changed their firmware update process (using SPP packages) so that it now uses iSUT 2.9.1 (Integrated Smart Update Tools) and SUM (Software Update Manager) 8.9.5. We have several HPE Gen10 servers running ESXi 6.7U3. Short summary of the issue: ESXi 6.7 can't connect to iLO on itself (and vice versa), which is required to complete ESXi-specific firmware updates on an HPE ProLiant Gen10 server using the installation software ![]() (I've reached out to HPE for this but have not gotten a solid answer yet so maybe VMware can assist with this) ![]()
