You can update firmware from a logical enclosure for shared infrastructure, shared infrastructure and profiles, and OA (Onboard Administrators) only, if any.
When a logical enclosure firmware update is in progress, do not initiate a firmware update from a logical interconnect that is part of that logical enclosure.
If the selected firmware bundle is in warning state, you cannot update firmware from logical enclosure. The warning state is due to the missing components which are required to complete the logical enclosure firmware update.

Power off any servers that lack server profiles, have been set to offline mode, or managed manually in the server profile.
