fixes for HMC 6

[ogniemi]

hello,

I have met a deadlock.

A 550 system is on too low microcode level to be supported by HMC 7.

I wanted to upgrade it first but the connected HMC is on level 6.1.2 and description for microcode which supports HMC7 requires at least HMC 6.1.3 to install it on the server.

Anyone has an idea where IBM hide the HMC 6.x resources to get fixes to upgrade HMC 6 up to 6.1.3?

On

http://www-933.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/firmware/selectFixes

there's a link "V6 and earlier HMC codeand additional information" (on the right, halfway down the page) that gets you to this:

http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/set2/sas/f/hmcl/home.html

And there you can link to the 613 updates

HTH,
