Re: Recommended steps to update.

Can I jump to that version or there is a recommended version to update to?

Hello,

You may click here for the latest version of the updating the HPE ProLiant DL160 Gen9 Server's BIOS.

From the version mentioned and to the latest version, there is a gap of nearly twenty upgrades. There are also critical updates in them as well. If you would like to lessen the updates, then you may consider updating to each alternate version, ensuring that each upgrade requirement having status of critical be applied, even if they are out of turn, restarting the server after each update is one way to proceed.

No doubt that this is long process!!!

Regards,

Hello. 

 

We had BIOS from year 2015. I upgraded it to 2022 version. Are all previous updates included in the 2022 version ? Or i have to download and install each one manually? 

Also the question is, we bought HP product yet the BIOS is locked for us, we did registered the product on HP support page.
