Issue
Release notes for Authentication Manager 8.7 SP1 state that any hardware appliance can be upgraded to SP1, but the upgrade only works on the following hardware appliances:
- Dell 13th Gen Servers Dell PowerEdge R230, R630
- Dell 14th Gen Servers Dell PowerEdge R240, R640
- Dell 15th Gen Servers Dell PowerEdge R250 (Authentication Manager 8.7 SP1 onwards)
The following hardware appliances are no longer supported:
- Intel Kylin
- Intel Sika
- Dell R210

Tasks
- Download am87sp1_hw_check11.sh from this article.
- Using WinSCP or another file transfer app, copy the script to /home/rsaadmin on your Authentication Manager primary.
- Elevate to root:
sudo su -
- Change file permissions to 755:
chmod 755 am87sp1_hw_check11.sh
- Run the script:
./am87sp1_hw_check11.sh
- As different appliances within the deployment can be different models, and therefore provide different results, copy the script to all replicas in your deployment and run steps 3 through 5 on each replica.
