software components to the newest versions of SCM software components available for download on the
HP website. If SCM detects a newer version, the Updated Components dialog box appears automatically
( Figure 98 ) and prompts you to download the newest version. You can also manually check for the latest
versions of SCM software components. Click Check for Updates on the Advanced Operations menu.
The following SCM software components are available for updates:
• Storage subsystem firmware
• Switch firmware
• HBA driver
• Application deployment templates
