The PMAC GUI allows software installations and upgrades (
operating system (
OS), applications) using ISO images stored in the PMAC ISO image repository. These tasks can be applied to one or more
HP ProLiant server(s) simultaneously: Up to 16 servers for newly installed systems (pre-OS installation), or up to 8 servers for operational systems (post-OS installation). The
HP ProLiant server can be a blade in an enclosure, a
rackmount server (
RMS), or a guest virtual machine running on a blade or RMS.
Note:
The server on which PMAC is running to perform these tasks cannot be upgraded using this feature. The management server requires a manual upgrade by on-site personnel.
The installation or upgrade process performs in the background and can be monitored for each affected server.
