Installing A Patch Step-By-Step - HP 3100 v2 Series Configuration Manual

Step
2. Install and run patches in
one step.
If you execute the patch install patch-location command, the directory specified for the patch-location
argument replaces the directory specified with the patch location command after the upgrade is
complete.
If you execute the patch install file patch-package command, the directory specified with the patch
location command does not change.
To uninstall all ACTIVE and RUNNING patches in one step, use the undo patch install command. For
information about the step-by-step patch uninstall approach, see

Installing a patch step-by-step

In contrast to the one-step patch installation approach, step-by-step patch installation enables you to
control patch status during the patch installation process.

Configuring the patch file location
For reliable patch loading, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends saving patch files to the root
directory of Flash memory. To use a storage media other than Flash, you must specify the directory
for saving patch files on the storage media.
If the switch has only one storage medium, you do not need to perform this task.
To configure the patch file location:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Configure the patch file

NOTE:
If you execute the patch install patch-location command, the directory specified for the
patch-location argument replaces the directory specified with the patch location command after the
upgrade is complete.
