configuration
utilities.
Firmware
updates
IBM
periodically
makes
BIOS,
service
processor
(BMC),

workstation.
Install
any
updates,
using
the
instructions
that
are
included
with
the
downloaded

Important:
To
avoid
problems
and
to
maintain
proper
system
performance,
always
ensure
that
the
blade
workstation
BIOS,
service
processor,
and
diagnostic
firmware
levels
are
consistent
for
all
blade
workstations
of
the
same
type
within
the
BladeCenter
unit.

Configuring
the
Gigabit
Ethernet
controllers
Two
Ethernet
controllers
are
integrated
on
the
blade
workstation
system
board.
Each
controller
provides
a
1-Gbps
full-duplex
interface
for
connecting
to
one
of
the
Ethernet-compatible
modules
in
I/O-module
bays
1
and
2,
which
enables
simultaneous
transmission
and
reception
of
data
on
the
Ethernet
local
area
network
(LAN).
Each
Ethernet
controller
on
the
system
board
is
routed
to
a
different
module
in
I/O-module
bay
1
or
bay
2.
See
“Blade
workstation
Ethernet
controller
enumeration”
on
page
10
for
information
about
how
to
determine
the
routing
from
Ethernet
controller
to
I/O-module
bay
for
your
blade
workstation.
Note:
Other
types
of
blade
workstations,
such
as
the
BladeCenter
HS20
Type
8678
blade
workstation,
that
are
installed
in
the
same
BladeCenter
unit
as
the
BladeCenter
HS21
Type
7995
blade
workstation
might
have
different
Ethernet
controller
routing.
See
the
documentation
that
comes
with
the
other
blade
workstations
for
information.
