5.3 Installing Patches from Your Laptop
To install the XC Software patches from your laptop, follow these steps:
1. Use the IRC to mount the directory with the XC Software patches that you downloaded on
your laptop earlier in “Downloading XC Software Patches” (page 24).
• Click on the IRC Virtual Media icon on the ILO2 tab at the top of the screen (see
Figure 5-1) and browse to select the folder with the XC patches. This creates the directory
/media/iLO2_FOLDER on the head node and mounts the selected laptop folder to
that directory.

2. Create a temporary patch download directory on the head node. For example:
# mkdir /home/patches
3. Copy the contents of the patch file from /media/iLO2 to /home/patches as follows:
# cp /media/iLO2_FOLDER/* /home/patches
4. Enter the following command:
# cd /home/patches
5. Enter the following command:
# tar -xvzf patch_filename
File extensions are typically .tar.gz, and .tgz. This creates subdirectories in /home/
patches.
