Firmware updates

Use this information to update the blade server to the latest levels of UEFI code and firmware updates.

IBM periodically makes UEFI code, service processor firmware, and diagnostic firmware updates available for the blade server and the BladeCenter® unit. Before you install the blade server in a BladeCenter unit, go to http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/ to download the latest firmware for the BladeCenter unit and the blade server. Install the updates, using the instructions that are included with the downloaded files.

Important: To avoid problems and to maintain system performance, always make sure that the UEFI code, service processor (IMM) firmware, and diagnostic firmware levels are consistent for all blade servers within the BladeCenter unit.
