There is included Perl scipt for update in HP Lights-Out XML PERL Scripting Sample for Linux: Update_Firmware.xml - Flash the Lights-Out device firmware to a new version.

5.point it to the CP file you downloaded.
6.add /f /s command line switches.
7. Hit next
yes
8.Go to master return codes
9. ADD 1, 2 and 3 as success and continue codes.

Apply to desired servers, enjoy.

If you also whant to do a lot of servers you can do a conditional task and throw it to all your servers, it will choose who complies with the condition and install it on it.
