How do I get the *.shexe files for Linux to show up in the repository. I have a feeling I missed something.
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionRight now, the Linux firmware components are not supported through the Linux VCA/VCRM, only PSP-type components. We know of this hole in our support story and are working to close it.
Until then, you will need to use the SIM scripting capabilities or the remote iLO virtual CD support to send down the Linux components and/or Firmware CD to have the Linux ROM components installed on the target servers.

Re: Linux VCA and online ROM Flash files
Thank you for the information. Any Idea when this might be resolved. I have 30 Linux servers and 22 more coming.....It would make my life a great deal easier if this worked.

Re: Linux VCA and online ROM Flash files
We hope to have this support available towards the middle of next year. The work is being coordinated between several different teams so the exact release date hasn't been finalized.

Re: Linux VCA and online ROM Flash files
It would save me a lot of manual firmware loads indeed.

Re: Linux VCA and online ROM Flash files
Thank you for the information. Any idea where I might find a script that would serve as an example?

Re: Linux VCA and online ROM Flash files
No, we haven't dropped the ball. The deployment of .scexe files through the Linux VCA almost finished. Right now, the release dates are not set for 2007, but support of deploying system ROM, iLO/iLO2/RILOE II ROM, smart array controllers, some SAS online hard drives, NIC firmware, probably c-class enclosure firmware and others should be available by mid-year 2007.
We've had numerous issues that we've had to work through with everything from the firmware components not having standardized return codes to inconsistent use of the force option for different types of firmware, detection of shared storage (ie clustered environments) plus upgrading all the underlying tools to support firmware plus ensuring that all the changes we make will be backward compatible. Development is finally winding down and the enhancements should be going into test soon.
In the short-term, you can use the firmware CD 7.60 to script a remote deployment of firmware by using the HP Smart Update Manager (HPSUM) product found in the /compaq/swpackages directory on the CD. The users guide found in /compaq/docs explains the command-line parameters that can be used (normally the -s (silent) option is used). Combined with ssh, this can provide a way to remotely script firmware until the integration work is finished.
