IBM FastSetup
FastSetup allows users to create mass deployments of firmware updates and includes
features to make the setup process as simple and as fast as possible, including automation
templates made easy for mass deployments of firmware, an easy process to push
configuration settings, and integrated help for dialog panels.
FastSetup runs on Windows and performs the following tasks:
Setup wizard to collect inventory, update firmware, set configuration parameters.
Create a template of firmware levels and parameters to be deployed to other servers or I/O
modules of the same type.
Download firmware to a local repository for later use.
The system running FastSetup does need to be able to connect to the target systems via the
network, but they do not need to be on the same subnet.
