Update same firmware component type
The following are the key points to remember when updating firmware components of same type:
● If multiple components of the same type with same versions are present in the server, only one version of the component is
displayed on the Select Firmware Components page. The update will be applied to all the components and the drift details
are displayed for only one version of the component.
For example,
Table 19. Example for multiple components with same type present in server
Component Current version Available version
HDD1 V1 V3
HDD2 V1 V3
HDD3 V1 V3
In this case, the Select Firmware Components page displays the following:
Table 20. Example for multiple components of the same version present in server
Component Current version Available version
HDD1 V1 V3
● If multiple components of the same type with different versions are present in the server, a single component will be
displayed for each unique version. In this case, if you select any one component, the update will be applied to all the
components irrespective of their current firmware versions. The drift details are displayed for all the components
irrespective of their current firmware versions.
For example,
Table 21. Example for multiple components with different version present in server
Component Current version Available version
HDD1 V1 V3
HDD2 V2 V3
HDD3 V2 V3
In this case, the Select Firmware Components page displays the following:
Table 22. Example for multiple components with different version present in server
Component Current version Available version
HDD1 V1 V3
HDD2 V2 V3
● If the catalog contains multiple available versions, it is recommended to select only one of the available version for a
component type. The selected firmware is then applied to all applicable components irrespective of their current version.
For example,
Table 23. Example for multiple available version present in catalog
Component Current version Available version
HDD1 V1 V3
HDD2 V2 V3
HDD3 V2 V3
HDD1 V1 V4
HDD2 V2 V4
