Why do GUI and CLI show different status for ONTAP automatic updates configuration ?
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- System Manager
- SP/BMC firmware automatic updates
Answer
The document describes how to enable automatic updates from both the GUI and CLI, but each controls different parts of ONTAP’s automatic update behavior:
- GUI (System Manager):
Manages the global enable/disable setting for ONTAP and SP/BMC automatic upgrades.
- CLI(system service-processor image show -fields autoupdate)
Controls whether SP/BMC firmware is automatically updated in specific scenarios, refer to Manage ONTAP SP/BMC firmware updates
Therefore, a mismatch between the GUI and CLI settings does not indicate a problem.
