What you probably want is the HP Service Pack for Proliant, which is a =
bootable DVD-DL image (have tried converting and booting from a USB =
stick; no dice).  It takes an inventory and updates all your firmware =
including bios, raid controller, etc.

Before the HP/HPE split it used to be fairly easy to get a copy even if =
not on service contract.  That has changed; some folks ascribe this to a =
deliberate move on HPE's part.  Considering all the broken links and =
general disorganization on the now-bifurcated sites, I'm more inclined =
to think it's just gross sloppiness and apathy - good luck even =
*finding* the download page if you don't know the actual file name you =
are looking for.

A discussion thread on the 2016-04 version is here:  =
https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/4da6k9/new_hpe_service_pack_for=
_proliant_spp_version/

Acquiring an image is left as an exercise to the reader.
