Install Sets

An install set is a group of components that can be applied to supported servers with a single command.
Use SUM to create install sets. You can use iLO to view existing install sets in the iLO web interface.
Saving an install set when you deploy from SUM keeps all the components on the iLO system for
immediate use at a later time to restore or roll back a component version without needing to find the
original SPP.
To learn more about how iLO, SUM, and the BIOS work together to manage software and firmware, see
the SUM documentation.

Installing an install set

You can add an install set to the installation queue from the Install Sets page.
When you add an install set to the installation queue, iLO adds a task to the end of the installation queue
for each component or command in the install set. After other queued items are complete, the install set
contents are installed when the software that initiates updates for each component type detects the
installation request. To determine the software that can initiate an update, check the component details.
If a component in a previously queued task is waiting to start or finish, a new queued component might be
delayed indefinitely. For example, if a queued update must wait until the UEFI BIOS detects it during
server POST, but the server is not restarted, then the updates that follow in the queue will not be installed.
Prerequisites
• Configure iLO Settings privilege
• No components in the install set are queued as part of another installation task.
