• Lenovo XClarity Controller
If you need to install a specific update, you can use the Lenovo XClarity Controller interface for a specific
server.
Notes:
– To perform an in-band update through Windows or Linux, the operating system driver must be installed
and the Ethernet-over-USB (sometimes called LAN over USB) interface must be enabled.
For additional information about configuring Ethernet over USB, see:
"Configuring Ethernet over USB" section in the XCC documentation version compatible with your
server at https://pubs.lenovo.com/lxcc-overview/
– If you update firmware through the Lenovo XClarity Controller, make sure that you have downloaded
and installed the latest device drivers for the operating system that is running on the server.

• 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.
