ESXi and iSUT on DL380 Gen10 servers

[EngAUBap]

Hello,

I have 20 DL380 Gen10 hosts running ESXi 6.7 and I need to upgrade the firmware as well as the ESXi drivers.

What is the best method to accomplish this?

I was thinking of iSUT together with SUM.
How do I install iSUT on ESXi and how do I use SUM to push the firmware and drivers online?

Thanks

Hi, 

You are correct. 

1. Please install the iSUT on all the hosts where the firmware and drivers are to be deployed. 

iSUT link: https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=MTX-b87c52e911504b3bb8c96bea66#tab3

You could download the latest SPP available : https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=MTX_fcd64526ff6242cdbe059bea3d#tab3

2. Set the iSUT mode to AutodeployReboot execute command “sut –set mode=AutodeployReboot

Note: AutoDeployReboot mode performs all the tasks of AutoDeploy mode and AutoStage mode.

Note : However, iSUT reboots the Vmware ESXi host only if the host is in Maintenance mode.

If you have any further concerns or questions on the same, requesting you to log a case with the HPE support. 

Thanks and Regards,
