Updating the integrated system management firmware
To update the firmware for the integrated system management processor (ISMP),
download the Integrated System Management Firmware Update Utility program for
your server from the IBM Support Web site at http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/. Run
the utility program to create a diskette that you can use to update the firmware. The
utility program updates the integrated system management firmware only and does
not affect any device drivers.
Complete the following steps to update the firmware:
1. Turn off the server.
2. Insert the diskette into the diskette drive.
3. Turn on the server. If the server does not start from the diskette, use the
Configuration/Setup Utility program to configure the diskette drive as a startup
device. (For more information, see the information about Configuration/Setup
Utility start options in the
User’s Guide
.) Guide. Then, start again at step 1 of
this procedure.
4. From the main menu, select
Update System Management Firmware
and
press Enter.
5. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the update.
If there is an error in updating the firmware, try installing the firmware again.
