Do not reboot the VxFlex Ready Node server while the update
process is being performed!
The iDRAC will be reset several times during the update process. This causes
the iDRAC virtual console viewer to close, virtual media to disconnect, and the
iDRAC browser window to be unavailable for several minutes during each reset.
The hardware update scripts will continue to run from RAM on the server.
The update script will generate a log indicating whether each configuration and
firmware flash is successful.
