HP Service Pack for ProLiant
SPP is a comprehensive systems software (drivers and firmware) solution delivered as a single ISO file with
major server releases. This solution uses HP SUM as the deployment tool and is tested on all supported HP
ProLiant servers including HP ProLiant Gen8 servers.
SPP can be used in an online mode on a Windows or Linux hosted operating system, or in an offline mode
where the server is booted to an operating system included on the ISO file so that the server can be updated
automatically with no user interaction or updated in interactive mode.
For more information or to download SPP, see one of the following pages on the HP website:
