<h1 class="topictitle1">Install fixes on systems managed by Hardware Management Console</h1>
|
|
<div><p><span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />This topic describes how to install <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> fixes
|
|
when your system is managed by the Hardware Management Console. <img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span></p>
|
|
<p>As the system administrator or system operator who manages the software
|
|
level on your systems or partitions, you have two choices for performing this
|
|
task for systems that are managed by the Hardware Management Console (HMC): </p>
|
|
<ul><li><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />You control the software level of the <span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />server
|
|
firmware<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span> through the <span class="keyword">i5/OS</span> service
|
|
partition. This method requires a server IPL for the updates to take effect.
|
|
A server IPL requires you to power down all the partitions at the same time.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></li>
|
|
<li>You allow the HMC to control the level of the <span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />server firmware<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span>.
|
|
On systems that have an HMC attached, this is the default action. This method
|
|
requires you to install fixes by using the HMC. With this method, the <span class="keyword">i5/OS</span> service partition is disabled
|
|
from applying updates to the <span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />server firmware<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span>. When the
|
|
DSPPTF display for licensed product 5722999 is shown, message CPD35FA is displayed.
|
|
This message indicates that updates are not allowed from the <span class="keyword">i5/OS</span> service
|
|
partition, and the <span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />server firmware<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span> that is currently active
|
|
is at a different level than the <span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />server firmware portion of
|
|
the Licensed Internal Code<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span> that is installed on the system. To allow
|
|
updates through HMC only, see <a href="../icbase/ipha5/ipha5kickoff.htm">Customer service, support, and troubleshooting</a>.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>You can perform a server IPL from two different sources: the T side or
|
|
the P side. The T side is considered the temporary side, which is the equivalent
|
|
of the B IPL source on the iSeries™ server. The P side is considered the permanent
|
|
side, which is the equivalent of the A IPL source on the iSeries server.
|
|
These IPL sources do not have to synchronized. Normally, the service partition
|
|
is running on the B IPL source, and the code for the server firmware is running
|
|
from the T side. The DSPPTF command shows the copy of the <span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />server
|
|
firmware<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span> that was used on the previous server IPL in the IPL source header
|
|
field (##SERV#T or ##SERV#P).</p>
|
|
<p>When fixes are applied to or removed from the <span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />server firmware<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span> portion
|
|
of the Licensed Internal Code, a message is sent that indicates if any of
|
|
the PTFs require a server IPL. You can use the DSPPTF command to determine
|
|
which PTFs require a server IPL to activate the changes. The <em>Server IPL
|
|
required</em> field is set to None; ##SERV#T or ##SERV#P indicates which IPL
|
|
source to use when performing the server IPL. It is not sufficient to perform
|
|
an IPL on only the service partition to activate the code; you must power
|
|
down all the partitions at the same time.</p>
