Software Upgrade/Install

The software upgrade and installation mechanism can be used to install new features, upgrade core

software, and apply security patches. You can upgrade or install software from both the Management

Console and the Command Line Interface. If you are interested in monitoring the status of the upgrade,

perform the upgrade from the Command Line Interface.
Software upgrades must be applied to all SKM individually in a cluster. Software upgrades are not

replicated across members of a cluster.
To safeguard SKMs, only software signed by HP can be installed on the SKM. Changes to multiple

components of the system are bundled together in an encrypted software file provided by the Customer

Service organization at HP.
