Abstract
Examples of systems and methods are described for selecting firmware versions of multiple components for a distributed computing system (e.g., a cluster). Multiple selection interfaces may be presented to a user who may select at least one firmware version of at least one component. Based on the user selection(s), a service manager may evaluate firmware component dependencies and identify compatible firmware versions of other components for installation. In this manner, a set of firmware versions may be installed and/or upgraded which may be different than a current set of versions and/or a set of versions recommended in a wholly automated manner.
