Both mentioned components/packages (firmware-ilo5-sha512-2.30-1.1.x86_64 and firmware-ilo5-1.48-1.1.x86_64) cannot be found in the official repositories: 

https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/repo/spp/RHEL/7Server/x86_64/2020.09.0/ 
https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/repo/spp/RHEL/7Server/x86_64/current/
https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/repo/fwpp/rhel/7/x86_64/2020.09.0/
https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/repo/fwpp/rhel/7/x86_64/current/

 

Why are these components/packages are needed?
What are these sha512 versions of ilo?
Why does smartupdate complains about missing ilo5 components/packages on a Gen9 server?
