iLo Firmware issues

Michael Mercogliano — Thu, 23 Sep 2010 11:41:01 GMT

Can someone please explain to me why iLo has been failing when trying to update it through the Version Control Agent? I'm trying to update "Firmware CD Supplemental Update / Online ROM Flash Component for Linux - HP Integrated Lights-Out 2". These are all Windows Servers and yes I see that the description says "Linux" but why am I receiving these if they are not for Windows? The problem seems to have started since the extension of the files changed to *.scexe.

Thank you,
-Mike

I believe this was a problem with the downloads to the VCRM at one time. At the time they said to delete any files with the *.scexe extension, delete them and update again from HP. Then rescan the repository and you should then have the correct files.
I only had to update from HP and rescan. Mine are showing the correct firmware now.

Hello Michael,

is it really a linux or a windows Server ?
Actually many firmware updates are shown as .scexe update for linux, nevertheless it is a windows server.

Really buggy.

And no more show up for the PIC/PMC firmware.

Regards,

Leo

i give the suggestion of rancher a try.
All the *.scexe files are deleted in the repositoy and a rebuild now run.
Unfortunately it takes a long time, as usual with the vcrm ..

We will have to see later on ..
