Model 9117-570, 9116-561 and 9406-570 systems with any level of SF240 installed must be checked for GARDed out nodes, processors and memory before applying a new level of SF240 firmware. Following are instructions to determine if any nodes, processors or memory is GARDed out. If any hardware resource are found to be GARDed, contact your next level of support and have the situation corrected before applying this service pack.
1. Log on to ASM as "admin".
2. Click on the "Expand all menus" link to make all options visible.
3. Navigate down to the options under "System Configuration" followed by "Hardware Deconfiguration".
4. Click on the link "Processor Deconfiguration" to bring up the page that shows the number of processors present and whether or not they are
configured.
5. Click on the link "Memory Deconfiguration" to bring up the page that
shows the total amount of memory present and if any is presently
deconfigured.
6. Click on the link "Processing unit Deconfiguration" to bring up the
page that shows the processing units in the system and if any is
presently deconfigured.
7. Log off.
从IBM官网下载最新的01SF240_338_201版本的微码，文件下载下来是一个rpm包，01SF240_338_201.rpm，FTP 到AIX系统上
找到AIX下微码的目录，进入，在命令行下运行命令：
rpm -Uvh --ignoreos 01SF240_338_201.rpm
微码文件会被解压到/tmp/fwupdate目录下，文件名是01SF240_338_201
到/tmp/fwupdate目录下，运行命令：
/usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin/update_flash -f 01SF240_338_201
系统提示如果要继续更新微码需要重新启动，按下1并回车，机器重新启动并自动进入微码更新进程
在更新过程中液晶面板会有CA2799FD 和CA2799FF 交替显示，更新完毕后系统自动关机，然后启动。
启动后登陆进去，使用命令lsmcode 查看微码版本，你将会看到以下输出：
The current permanent system firmware image is 01SF240_219
The current temporary system firmware image is 01SF240_338
The system is currently booted from the temporary firmware image.
他表示，系统永久微码的版本是01SF240_219，临时微码版本是01SF240_338，系统当前使用临时微码启动
IBM的文档显示，这种情况是正常的，因为刚刚更新过的微码不一定和当前的系统相适应，可能需要换回原来的微码。
这种情况就是为了当更新的微码和系统不适用时，可以还有补救措施。
如果更新过微码后，系统使用了一段时间了，可以认为更新的微码适用于当前系统，那么就可以把临时微码刷新到永久微码了，步骤如下
第一种方法：
在命令行下运行：
/usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin/update_flash -c
这个命令将会把临时微码更新为永久微码，这个过程可能需要10分钟，命令成功完成之后，如果提交的微码版本是SF220，那么需要手动关机，并重新启动机器，如果提交的微码版本是SF222或更高，就不需要关机和重启了。
使用命令#lsmcode查看当前的微码
The current permanent system firmware image is 01SF240_338
The current temporary system firmware image is 01SF240_338
The system is currently booted from the temporary firmware image.
第二种方法：
运行diag诊断程序，选择选项“ Task Selection (Diagnostics, Advanced Diagnostics, Service Aids, etc.)”，并选择“ Microcode Tasks”，之后选择“Update and Manage System Flash”出现如下界面
UPDATE AND MANAGE FLASH
The current permanent system firmware image is SF240_219
The current temporary system firmware image is SF240_338
The system is currently booted from the temporary firmware image.
Move cursor to selection, then press 'Enter'.
Validate and Update System Firmware
Validate System Firmware
Commit the Temporary Image
选择最后一项Commit the Temporary Image，开始更新微码。
注意：此选项不会要求确认，除非你确定要这样做，否则不要选择此项
这个过程将会运行10分钟左右，成功完成之后，如果提交的微码版本是SF220，那么需要手动关机，并重新启动机器，如果提交的微码版本是SF222或更高，就不需要关机和重启了。
使用命令#lsmcode查看当前的微码
The current permanent system firmware image is 01SF240_338
The current temporary system firmware image is 01SF240_338
The system is currently booted from the temporary firmware image.。

IBM小型机(7026-6H1)微码升级文档(微码版本CM060505)
7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1 小型机微码升级文档(微码版本: CM060505)Applies to : RS/6000 7026-H80, pSeries 660 Models 6H0 and 6H1This document describes the installation of Licensed Machine Code, which is sometimes referred to generically as microcode or firmware.Contents∙ 1.0 Systems Affected∙ 2.0 Firmware Description and Revision History∙ 3.0 Cautions and Important Notes∙ 4.0 How to Determine Currently Installed Firmware Level∙ 5.0 Downloading and Unpacking the Firmware Update Package∙ 5.1 Internet Package∙ 5.1.1 AIX Package∙ 5.1.2 DOS Package∙ 5.2 Remote Installation of Firmware∙ 6.0 Updating the Firmware∙ 6.1 Using the AIX Command-Line Method∙ 6.2 Using the Update Flash Diagnostic Service Aid Method∙ 6.3 Using the Service Processor Menus Method∙ 6.4 Verifying the Update∙ 6.5 Archiving the Update Files1.0 Systems AffectedThis update provides new firmware (FW) for RS/6000 7026-H80 and pSeries 660 Model 6H0 (7026-6H0) and Model 6H1 (7026-6H1) Servers only. Do not use on any other systems.The firmware level contained in this update is:∙ CM060505The typical time to install this firmware is one hour. The firmware does not become active when installed and requires a system reboot to become active. This reboot time will vary depending on the system and the amount of features installed. This estimate is for an average system.2.0 Firmware Description and Revision History Table 2.1 lists the levels and descriptions for the firmware.3.0 Cautions and Important NotesATTENTION: The firmware levels contained in this package MUST be installed before installing AIX 5.3.The System, Service Processor (SvP) and System Power Control Network (SPCN) firmware are combined into a single file. This allows all the firmware to be updated together and assures they are compatible.Don't be alarmed at the length of this document! For any given download/unpacking/update environment, the process is short. This document describes processes for several environments. One should be suitable for your needs, and these instructions guide you through just the environment you choose.Service Processor Menu Update MethodThis method of updating the firmware requires the update file to be on diskettes. Details for creating these diskettes are contained in the download instructions.Note: If the update file will be downloaded directly to the target server, diskettes will have to be made in order to update the firmware from the SP Menus.Recovery ModeIf the service processor detects that its programming has been corrupted when it is powering up to standby mode, it will enter recovery mode. In recovery mode, it will ask for the firmware update diskettes by putting eight-digit codes on the operator panel. For more details, see the RS/6000 Enterprise Server 7026 Model H80, eServer pSeries 660 Models 6H0 and 6H1 Service Guide.Firmware Update Installation Is Not ConcurrentInstallation of the firmware will cause an unconditional reboot of the system. Therefore, all user operations should be gracefully terminated before firmware updates are to be applied.Never Power Off the System During the Firmware Update ProcessThe update will fail, and the process must be repeated.Replacement Parts May Require UpdatingWhen a system planar is replaced, the firmware must be checked to ensure it is at the latest level. Table 3.1 lists the released levels of firmware.AIX Instructions are CASE SENSITIVEIn the instructions that follow are specific AIX and DOS commands. AIX commands are CASE (lower and upper) SENSITIVE, and must be entered exactly as shown, including the filenames. DOS commands are not case sensitive, and may be entered without regard to the cases shown.How to Determine the Firmware Release DateFirmware level identifiers use the 8-digit Gregorian date code method in terms of year, month, and day (such as 20060505 for CM060505 level).4.0 How to Determine Currently Installed Firmware LevelDO NOT rely on the part number or firmware level marking/label on an EPROM/FLASH module because the content of the module may have been updated to a different level. To be safe, always check the firmware level electronically.Use the following AIX command for checking the firmware level.Enter:lscfg -vp | grep -F .CMThis command will produce a system configuration report similar to the following.ROM Level.(alterable).......CM030829The ROM Level line lists the level of the currently installed firmware. In the above example, the current firmware level is CM030829.If the right-most six characters (date) of the firmware level is earlier than 060505, you should consider installing the update.If you find the firmware must be updated, proceed to Section 5.0. If the firmware level is correct and no update is needed, installation is complete.5.0 Downloading and Unpacking the Firmware Update PackageInstructions for downloading and unpacking the firmware update package follow.5.1 Internet PackageThe firmware, in AIX and DOS packages, is located at the web site/webapp/set2/firmware/gjsnFollow the instructions on this web page. You must read and agree to the license agreement to obtain the firmware package.In the drop-down box, choose the entry for your specific machine type and model.The download choices at that entry are:∙Desc (Instructions document)∙AIX (For downloading to an AIX server or system)∙DOS (For downloading to a Windows workstation)You will want a copy of the instructions document and one of the download choices. You may transfer files to the target server in one of several ways.∙By downloading files directly to the target server.∙By downloading files to an intermediate AIX system and then using either ftp or diskettes for transferring to the target server.∙By downloading files to a Windows workstation from which you can use diskettes for transferring to the target server.Detailed download/unpacking instructions follow for each of the downloading preferences.∙If using an AIX system for downloading, continue to paragraph 5.1.1.∙If using a Windows workstation for downloading, skip to paragraph5.1.2.5.1.1 Downloading the AIX PackageUse this method to download to an AIX system.Note: In the instructions that follow are specific AIX commands. AIX commands are CASE (lower and upper) SENSITIVE, and must beentered exactly as shown, including the filenames.a) Provide a directory on an AIX system to receive the AIX format file.Enter:mkdir /tmp/fwupdateNote: If the directory /tmp/fwupdate already exists,make sure it is empty before proceeding.b) Transfer the AIX package to the /tmp/fwupdate directory (using "Save as ...").You'll see that the filename is 7026HM80.BINc) Unpack the file by executing the instructions below.Enter the commands:cd /tmp/fwupdatechmod +x 7026HM80.BIN./7026HM80.BIN[Don't overlook the periods (.) in the above command.]This files will be added to /tmp/fwupdate:CM_MM_060505.imgIf the above procedure was used to transfer the AIX package directly to the target server, proceed to Section 6.0, Updating the Firmware.Otherwise, on the intermediate AIX system, choose one of the following methods for transferring files to the target server.∙To transfer files to the target server via the ftp method, continue to paragraph 5.1.1.1.∙To transfer files to the target server via the diskettes method, skip to paragraph 5.1.1.2.5.1.1.1 The FTP Transfer MethodThis method presumes you have ftp access to the target server.On the intermediate AIX system,Enter the commands:ftp {name of target server}{Login with a valid userid and password}binlcd /tmp/fwupdatemkdir /tmp/fwupdatecd /tmp/fwupdateput CM_MM_060505.imgquitProceed to Section 6.0, Updating the Firmware.5.1.1.2 The Diskette Transfer MethodThis method can be used for cases in which electronic connections between the intermediate AIX system and the target server are inconvenient.Four 2MB (HD) new or freshly formatted diskettes are required.With a diskette loaded in the drive,Enter the commands (this process will request additional diskettes as each is filled):cd /tmp/fwupdatels *.img | backup -i -v -f/dev/rfd0This will produce AIX backup diskettes. Label these diskettes, respectively,"Volume 1: FW (CM060505) for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1""Volume 2: FW (CM060505) for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1""Volume 3: FW (CM060505) for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1""Volume 4: FW (CM060505) for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1"Proceed to Section 6.0, Updating the Firmware.5.1.2 Downloading the DOS PackageUse this file to download to a Windows workstation.a) Prepare a directory for receiving the DOS package.This directory can be in any partition with 12MB available space. Executing in such a partition, called [path] in these instructions (ex. c:\download),Enter:md [path]\fwupdateNote: If the directory [path]\fwupdate already exists,make sure it is empty before proceeding.b) Transfer the DOS package to the [path]\fwupdate directory (using "Save as ...").You'll see the filename is 7026HM80.EXEc) Unpack the file by executing the instructions below.Enter the commands:cd [path]\fwupdate7026HM80These files will be added to the fwupdate subdirectory:HM_80_B1.EXEHM_80_B2.EXEHM_80_B3.EXEHM_80_B4.EXE5.1.2.1 Diskettes for Firmware UpdatesFour 2MB (HD) new or freshly formatted DOS diskettes are required.Note:The diskettes produced below will be in a format that can be used directly with a computer running AIX as it's operating system. Thesediskettes, once made on a PC platform, cannot be read using normal PCplatform tools or command line operations.a) With a diskette loaded in the drive,Enter the commands:cd [path]\fwupdateHM_80_B1Label this diskette,"Volume 1: FW (CM060505) for 7026-H80,7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1"b) With a second diskette loaded in the drive,Enter:HM_80_B2Label this diskette,"Volume 2: FW (CM060505) for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1"c) With a third diskette loaded in the drive,Enter:HM_80_B3Label this diskette,"Volume 3: FW (CM060505) for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1"d) With a fourth diskette loaded in the drive,Enter:HM_80_B4Label this diskette,"Volume 4: FW (CM060505) for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1" Proceed to Section 6.0 Updating the Firmware.5.2 Remote Installation of FirmwareTo install firmware on a remote system, login to the remote system as root. Copy (in binary format) the firmware file, CM_MM_060505.img, to the /tmp/fwupdate directory on the remote system. Proceed to Section 6.0 Updating the Firmware.6.0 Updating the FirmwareThe System, Service Processor (SvP) and System Power Control Network (SPCN) firmware are combined into a single file. This allows all the firmware to be updated together and assures they are compatible.***WARNING:Do not power off the target server at any time before the updateprocess completes. Be sure the system is NOT running any userapplications.***Note: Checksums can be used to verify files have not been corrupted or altered during transmission.At the AIX command line, enter:sum CM_MM_060505.imgThis command will produce the following output:28838 4985 CM_MM_060505.imgThe checksum is ---------------> 28838You must have root authority on the target server to update its firmware.As the firmware update takes place (during the automatic shutdown sequence), progress can be monitored from the operator panel. The checkpoints 99FF and 99FD alternately appear while the update is in progress.At some points in the update process, these checkpoints may not change for ten to thirty minutes. If this occurs, be patient and allow time for the update process to complete.Updating firmware in the 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1 must be initiated either directly from the AIX command line, from the Update Flash Diagnostic Service Aid, or from the Service Processor Menu.Note: In the instructions that follow are specific AIX commands.AIX commands are CASE (lower and upper) SENSITIVE, and must beentered exactly as shown, including the filenames.6.1 Using the AIX Command Line MethodThis method allows updating either from files already loaded into the target server or from diskettes.∙If the files are loaded in the target server, continue to paragraph6.1.1.∙If the files are on diskettes, skip to paragraph 6.1.2.6.1.1 Updating With Files Already Loaded in the Target Server With the files located in the /tmp/fwupdate subdirectory,Enter the commands:cd /usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin./update_flash -f /tmp/fwupdate/CM_MM_060505.img[Don't overlook the periods (.) in the above command.]You will be asked for confirmation to proceed with the firmware update and the required reboot. If you confirm, the server will apply the new firmware, reboot and return to the AIX prompt. This may take ten to thirty minutes (or more), depending on the configuration of the target server.Having successfully executed the above commands, the server automatically performs the update and reboots. Since the update occurs during this shutdown/reboot sequence, it is important to protect the server from interruptions. The checkpoints 99FF and 99FD alternately appear while the update is in progress.The update of the firmware is complete. You will want to verify this update as shown in paragraph 6.4.6.1.2 Updating from DiskettesOn the target server,Enter the commands:mkdir /tmp/fwupdateNote: If the directory /tmp/fwupdate already exists,make sure it is empty before proceeding.cd /tmp/fwupdateEnter :restoreYou will be prompted to mount volume 1 on /dev/rfd0In the drive of the target server, put the AIX backup diskette labeled:"Volume 1: FW (CM060505) for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1"When prompted for volume 2,In the drive of the target server, put the AIX backup diskette labeled:"Volume 2: (CM060505) FW for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1"When prompted for volume 3,In the drive of the target server, put the AIX backup diskette labeled:"Volume 3: (CM060505) FW for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1"When prompted for volume 4,In the drive of the target server, put the AIX backup diskette labeled:"Volume 4: (CM060505) FW for 7026-H80, 7026-6H0 and 7026-6H1"The file is now located in the /tmp/fwupdate subdirectory.Enter the commands:cd /usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin./update_flash -f /tmp/fwupdate/CM_MM_060505.img[Don't overlook the periods (.) in the above command.]You will be asked for confirmation to proceed with the firmware update and the required reboot.

630机器升级微码
630机器升级微码这次是要将一台630微码升级到07045这个版本。
首先下载微码了，这个不用说了，到IBM的网站上一步一步找就可以了。
下载完是一个70286C4F.BIN 的文件然后在机器的 /tmp目录下新建目录/fwupdate ，如果存在这个目录就一定要清空里面的内容，然后把70286C4F.BIN 上传到这个目录。
Ftp的命令都会哈：ftpopen ***.***.***.***user/passwordprompt 关回显bin 二进制lcd F:/cd /tmp/fwupdatemput 70286C4F.BINbye-----------------------------------------------------------升级前需要注意几个问题:1.系统必须升级到5103版本以后2.HMC的版本必须是3.12 或更高，我这里用KVM，所有不管这个事情现在要确认客户已经停了所有业务，并且有除rootvg外其他的VG都没已经umount下去了。
确认OK后,如下：#cd /tmp/fwupdate#chmod +x 70286C4F.BIN 加上执行权限#./70286C4F.BIN 解压缩解压缩后会出来一个文件3R070425.img然后最好校验一下这个文件#sum 3R070425.img对比微码给出的校验值，这个最好还是要做，我们一个老大经常教导我们：警钟长鸣，事故为零这个的校验码好像是47728，详细的自己再查一下，以网站上的为准校验没问题，现在就开始升微码#cd /usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin#./update_flash –f /tmp/fwupdate/3R070425.img这个两个命令下去，机器重新启动，要大概半个小时，启动后就是新的微码了。
启动后：#lsmcode –c那么Platform firmware level is 3R070425。
IBMx3650M4微码升级immv2uefiimmupdate
第一步，要按照如下方法把IMM2的IP改成下图中的规格。
启动服务器后, 可以使用BIOS设置工具管理IMM 网络连接. 开启服务器, 通电大约两分钟后, 电源控制按钮将会激活, 按下开机按钮, 就会显示IBM System x Server Firmware 欢迎界面.按下F1键. 在Setup utility主窗口中, 选择System Settings - Integrated Management Module - Network Configuration. 在DHCP Control 中有三个IMM 网络连接选项(Static IP,DHCP Enabled,DHCP with Failover (default). 选择其中一种网络连接方式.如果选择static IP, 须指定IP地址,子网掩码,网关.(IP address,subnet mask and default gateway).设置完后选择Save Network Settings保存, 退出Setup utility.第二步，要在IBM官网上下载以下两个文件（分别是UEFI和IMM2的升级文件）第三步，升级（以下是升级过程）1.升级IMM primary和backup bank到1.851）网线连到服务器IMM端口和笔记本网口，笔记本网络做好如下配置，如已经做好，则跳过第一步。
2）上电开机，等待大概5-6分钟之后，IMM能ping 通。
可以通过以下步骤测试，打开CMD命令行敲入ping 192.168.70.125，如果能连上服务器的Imm,则可以ping通，就是出现下图方框里面的信息。
3）打开浏览器窗口，地址栏输入192.168.70.125，按下回车键4）User Name : USERID.Password : PASSW0RD（“0”是数字不是字母）输入用户名和密码（用户名及密码全是大写）之后，登陆IMM管理界面。
IBM-HMC升级主机微码
HMC升级主机微码HMC版本升级确认HMC 是否需要升级，我的HMC版本是version 6 .1.3，主机微码需要升级到SF240_417，HMC先要升级到要求的版本V7R3.5.0 SP:4，然后再升级主机的微码。
升级前要保存原来的数据，Save Profile Data, Save Upgrade Data。
Save Profile Data:在HMC上->System management->依次选中每个服务器->Configuration->Manage Partition Data –>Backup –>Profile Data Backup (填入文件名）Save Upgrade Data:HMC->HMC Management –>Save Upgrade Data –>Disk .主机微码升级升级前先要将.iso的文件刻录到光盘，例如H34381174_01SF240_417_382.iso。
不垮版本升级：->Change Internal Code for the current release (如果当前微码版本是SF240_XXX,选择该项) 跨版本升级：->Upgrade Licensed Internal Code to a new release(如果当前微码版本是SF240_XXX之前的版本，需要跨版本升级，我的是SF235需要跨版本升级。
)确认服务器状态是Power Off, Standby, or Operating，我在Operating进行的升级。
选择升级的的介质选择升级的微码选择升级过程中自动关闭电源再次确认信息，点OK开始升级微码。
升级过程升级完成，用时31分，升级过程中会自动启停服务器。
以上升级过程作为参考，未涉及到的相关细节请参考官方文档。

IBM X3850 服务器微码升级步骤
IBM X3850 服务器微码升级步骤一、CMOS1、升级主板bios，有2 种方法，软盘升级（*.img）和光盘升级(*.iso)A、将带有微码程序的光盘和软盘放进光驱和软驱中，机器可以自动识别从光驱和软驱中启动（如果识别不到软盘或光盘，开机按F12 键加载）。
B、启动后出现如下界面时，选择1，升级biosC、接下来是提示更改产品，编号，标识等，遇到需要更改的选项，一律“N”D、出现如下界面，选择1 ，回车E、读取软盘或光盘的文件，并进行清除和更新微码程序F、升级结束，提示取出光盘或软盘，按回车进行重起2、BMC（bmc 是服务器的逻辑部件之一，和系统日志有关）A、同样把光盘或软盘放进指定的驱动器，从软盘或光盘启动B、读取软盘或光盘微码文件，后提示是否要清除老的微码程序，选择“Y”，并进行升级，升级过程中有风扇响动，是正常现象，直到响声停止，出现C：，升级完毕3、CPLD（cpld 也是计算机的逻辑部件，是和硬盘较关联，硬盘黄灯闪烁，阵列掉线，可能是此服务器的微码版本过低所致）A、把软盘放进指定的驱动器，从软盘启动（IBM 官网没有光盘版的升级文件）B、拷贝文件，提示是否清除原来的数据，选择Y，然后选择A 进行升级C、升级过程中不要断4、DIAG（服务器的一个诊断工具，可以不升级，此升级程序没有光盘版）A、把升级bios 软盘或者光盘放进指定驱动器中引导，出现升级桌面，选择2，然后把diag 软盘插入软驱。
B、把指定软盘放进软驱，进行升级，完毕后重新启动计算机二、DERVER RAID 8I（阵列卡的微码程序，同步更新对阵列卡的稳定性有帮助，特别是阵列掉线重建的问题）A、把升级阵列卡的软盘或者光盘放进指定驱动器中引导，机器在开机过程中可以看到原来的老的版本程序B、插入升级的光盘，出现 linux 界面程序，不需要动任何键，可自动启动到升级界面，选择UPDATE，此时也能看到新旧版本的对比C、升级完毕后，点击finish，重新启动，可在启动窗口下看到最新版本程序D、如果是windows操作系统，还须进入系统中升级一下阵列的驱动程序ibm_dd_aacraid_5.2.0.12913_windows_32-64(8i卡驱动程序12913)三、SAS/SATA hard driver（对于不是同一批购买的机器，微码的版本可能部一致，这也是硬盘掉线的原因之一）A、把升级阵列卡的软盘或者光盘放进指定驱动器中引导，出现新的界面，可以看到硬盘的微码型号及版本B、点击update，进行升级，可以看到升级的具体状态。
HMCV7版本微码升级步骤-IBM-2022-9-28-图文
HMCV7版本微码升级步骤-IBM-2022-9-28-图文一.HardwareManagementconole界面二.firmware升级选项（红色框部分）在导航区域选择update选项三.Update选项1．升级HMC微码在左边导航栏里选择update，然后点击updateHMC，会提示你从光驱升级，点击OK即可。
如果HMC的大版本升级，例如V6升级到V7版本，则需要recoveryHMC的操作系统，即相当于重新安装HMC的操作系统。
2．升级主机微码在需升级的小型机序列号前选择框选中：不垮版本升级：->ChangeInternalCodeforthecurrentreleae(如果当前微码版本是SF240_某某某,选择该项)跨版本升级：->UpgradeLicenedInternalCodetoanewreleae(如果当前微码版本是SF240_某某某之前的版本，需要选择该项进行大版本的升级)四.备份HMC数据1.备份Profiledata:从HMC上，在需要升级的机器序列号上右键，选择Profiledata->Backup2.备份HMC的数据:BackupCriticalConoledata到光盘上五.升级事项1.hutdownServer（P59某系列需要关掉UEPO1分钟再拉起）2.通过HMC升级微码：3．Poweronerver4.察看版本信息六.回退事项1.分区信息丢失后回退步骤（出现分区信息丢失可能性较小）选择LicenedInternalCodeMaintenance->HMCCodeUpdate->RemoteRetoreofCriticalConoleData2.因为P5/P6主机在大版本相同的情况下可同时存两份微码，只升级temporary，permanent暂时不变，所以只需利用原微码启动机器即可。
进入ASMI后将poweron/off选项里选择利用permanent微码启动机器。
