Smart Update Manager

It provides a GUI and a command-line scriptable interface for Deployment of firmware for single or one-to-many HPE servers and network-based targets such as iLO, OA, and VC Ethernet and Fibre Channel modules.

SUM is supported on RedHat and SLES at this time. Additional information may be found on the SUM product home page.
