6. (Optional) If a version of the component you selected in step 3 exists in the System Recovery Set, select the Update
Recovery Set check box to replace the existing component with the selected component.
Selecting this option replaces the component, even if the version in the System Recovery Set is newer.
If there is no System Recovery Set, or you are not assigned the required privilege for this action, then this option is not
displayed.
7. Click Upload.
iLO notifies you that uploading a component with the same name as an existing component will replace the existing
component.
8. Click OK.
The upload starts. The upload status is displayed at the top of the iLO web interface.
Installing a component from the iLO Repository
You can add a component to the installation queue from the
iLO Repository page.
When you add a component to the installation queue, a task is added to the end of the queue. After other queued tasks
are complete, the added component is installed when the software that initiates updates for the component type detects
the installation request. To determine the software that can initiate an update, check the component details on the
iLO
Repository and Installation Queue pages.
If a previously queued task is waiting to start or finish, a new task might be delayed indefinitely. For example, if a queued
component is installable by the UEFI BIOS, a server restart is required before installation can start. If the server is not
restarted, the tasks that follow in the queue are delayed indefinitely.
