The HP ProLiant Firmware Maintenance CD provides a collection of firmware for your ProLiant servers and options. Beginning with the Firmware Maintenance CD 7.50, the HP Smart Update Manager utility enables you to deploy firmware components from a single, easy-to-use interface that is supported in both Microsoft® Windows® and Linux environments. This utility enables legacy support of existing firmware components while simplifying the firmware deployment process. The CD also provides installation logic and version control that check for dependencies, installing only the correct updates for optimal system configuration.
