Lenovo XClarity Administrator
If you are managing multiple servers using the Lenovo XClarity Administrator, you can update firmware for
all managed servers through that interface. Firmware management is simplified by assigning firmware-
compliance policies to managed endpoints. When you create and assign a compliance policy to managed
endpoints, Lenovo XClarity Administrator monitors changes to the inventory for those endpoints and flags
any endpoints that are out of compliance.

Lenovo XClarity Integrator offerings
Lenovo XClarity Integrator offerings can integrate management features of Lenovo XClarity Administrator
and your server with software used in a certain deployment infrastructure, such as VMware vCenter,
Microsoft Admin Center, or Microsoft System Center.

Configure the firmware
Several options are available to install and set up the firmware for the server.
Important:
Do not configure option ROMs to be set to
Legacy
unless directed to do so by Lenovo Support.
This setting prevents UEFI drivers for the slot devices from loading, which can cause negative side effects for
Lenovo software, such as Lenovo XClarity Administrator and Lenovo XClarity Essentials OneCLI, and to the
Lenovo XClarity Controller. The side effects include the inability to determine adapter card details, such as
model name and firmware levels. When adapter card information is not available, generic information for the
model name, such as "Adapter 06:00:00" instead of the actually model name, such as "ThinkSystem RAID
930-16i 4GB Flash." In some cases, the UEFI boot process might also hang.

Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager
From Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager, you can configure the UEFI settings for your server.
Notes:
The Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager provides a Graphical User Interface to configure a
server. The text-based interface to system configuration (the Setup Utility) is also available. From Lenovo
XClarity Provisioning Manager, you can choose to restart the server and access the text-based interface.
