System Update Manager

The System Update Manager (SUM) allows users to update the system BIOS or firmware code for
various controllers (front panel controller, baseboard management controller, power share
controller, etc.) on a server.
The SUM provides the following operations (Note that some servers do not support all types of
updates):
•
Determines the current revision of system BIOS and firmware on server controllers.
•
Updates BIOS and/or firmware.
 Updates the system BIOS with a BIOS file (.BIO file).
 Updates operational code for controllers using files composed of Hex Format code
(.HEX file).
 Updates the BIOS and/or firmware using a user-specified Update Information File
(.UIF file). The .UIF file lists all the controllers to be updated, the type of update to be
done, and the .BIO and .HEX files to be used for the update.
•
For controller firmware, verifies the code currently loaded versus an external hex file.
 Verifies the firmware for controllers using files composed of Hex Format code (.HEX
file).
 Verifies the firmware for controllers by using a user specified .UIF file.
Only a single instance of the SUM may be used at a time. You can open the SUM from the
Services menu or the SUM icon on the toolbar.
Starting the SUM Manager adds the SUM menu to the toolbar, which you can use to see the SUM
properties or reload the SUM Manager.

Platform Event Manager

The Platform Event Manager (PEM) provides an interface for configuring Platform Event Paging
(PEP), BMC LAN configuration, and the Emergency Management Port (EMP) serial
configuration.
Only a single instance of the PEM may be used at a time. You can open the PEM from the Services
menu or the PEM icon on the toolbar.
Starting the PEM Manager adds the PEM menu to the toolbar, which you can use to see the PEM
properties or reload the PEM Manager.
