Note: The Broadcom Ethernet controller on the BladeCenter JS20 Type 8842 blade
server might be unable to communicate for a few seconds while the blade server is
restarting. If this occurs, the current SOL session will be terminated; however, the
SOL session can be established again after the blade server restarts.
The following sections describe how to set up SOL for the BladeCenter JS20 Type
8842 blade server. You must perform the following procedures:
v
“Updating the open firmware (BIOS)”
v “Updating the integrated systems management processor firmware”
v
“Updating the Broadcom Ethernet controller firmware” on page 32
v
“Installing the Ethernet controller device driver for Linux operating systems” on
page 21
Updating the open firmware (BIOS)
Notes:
1. The Linux operating system must be installed and configured before updating
BIOS.
2. You must be logged in as a root user to perform these procedures.
3. If an SOL session is in progress, it will be terminated when the BladeCenter
JS20 Type 8842 blade server open firmware is updated. The SOL session can be
established again after the firmware update is complete.
Complete the following steps to update the BladeCenter JS20 Type 8842 blade
server open firmware. You do not have to configure the blade server open
firmware to enable SOL.
1. Download the latest version of BladeCenter JS20 Type 8842 blade server open
firmware from http://www.ibm.com/support/.
2. Update the blade server open firmware, following the instructions that come

management-module Web interface while the integrated systems management
processor (ISMP) firmware update is in progress. This will interrupt the update
procedure and might damage the BladeCenter JS20 Type 8842 blade server.
Important: You must update the open firmware (BIOS) on the BladeCenter JS20
Type 8842 blade server before you update the ISMP firmware.
Complete the following steps to update the BladeCenter JS20 Type 8842 blade
server ISMP firmware. You do not have to configure the ISMP to enable SOL.
