You can create bootable media containing a specific firmware
update, such as BIOS or Baseboard Management Controller (BMC).
Complete the following procedure to create bootable media
for a specific firmware update:
- Download the firmware update, such as BIOS or BMC, to the
working directory on the local system.
Be sure to download
both the binary files and the XML file used by the
UpdateXpress System Pack Installer,
or
UpdateXpress cannot
detect the update. You
can download updates from the
Lenovo
Service and Support website
at
http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/.
- Create a bootable media using the downloaded firmware update.
For example, enter the following command from a system running Windows to create an ISO image
using the update file located in the
c:\workingdir directory.
The
UpdateXpress System Pack Installer tool
and bootable environment are acquired from the
Lenovo website
by default.
lnvgy_utl_bomc_10.3_windows_i386.exe --function=update --iso=bmc.iso --local=
c:\workingdir
Note: If no machine type is specified, the
default value is All, which will download all
available machine types.
