The iLO Deploy procedure is the same as the Node Deploy procedure.
NOTE:
When deploying updates through an ISO mounted virtually via iLO, HP SUM updates
the iLO firmware last, if necessary. After HP SUM deploys the iLO firmware, the iLO disconnects
from the ISO when it reboots to activate the firmware. Reconnect to the iLO and then remount the
ISO media. If HP SUM times out and displays an unable to connect error, refresh the browser. You
can then review the update status, and resume using HP SUM.

firmware version without clicking Force for each component in the baseline library list.
•
Rewrite: This allows you to rewrite the current firmware version to components in the node
without clicking Force for each component in the baseline library list.

that are valid for your node.
NOTE:
You can click Force to downgrade or rewrite a component that is available for
downgrade or rewrite. If you select Downgrade, Rewrite, or both in the Installation Options,
HP SUM does not display the Force button.
