Sharon,

  THis is a piece of cake to do.  It will take no longer then 5 minutes to
do this, as I have done this before. Use the 2nd HMC port on the back of
the i5, it will be HMC1. I assume you had plugged the HMC into HMC0 of
the i5, so it now has the address of what was given by the HMC DHCP
server range.  Then plug an Ethernet cable from the back of your laptop
into HMC1 of the i5.  Configure your Ethernet port on your PC with a
manual address of 192.168.3.1 and you can make the gateway
192.168.3.147.  Then open up your browser, and enter
HTTPS://192.168.3.147 and you will get the ASMI signon screen.  Signon,
and you can select to reset the FSP to factory defaults.  I wouldnt do
this during the middle of the day, and you should have your machine with
power, but not running.

  Also, remember its httpS and not just http.  You might get a message
about certificates not being valid, just dismiss them.

Hope this helps.

Pete

I intend to reset to FSP to factory defaults.  Its going to take awhile.
Since the HMC is gone I can't get to ASMI.
It wasn't setup to be reached via browser before we started.
Trying to get approval now to attach my PC to setup ASM.

I find it rather amusing that all the documentation on how to remove the
HMC
did not discuss this at all.

Its going to be a long process.

  If the front bezzel has the HMC=0 or HMC=1 on it, then the i5 thinks it
is controlled by an HMC as well.  You might be better off, when you are
in the ASMI interface to reset the FSP to factory defaults.

Justins advise will solve how firmware updates are applied to the FSP.

You need to log in to the ASM interface and change the system back to
i5/OS-managed.  Probably couldn't hurt to remove the HMC-managedness of
the entire CEC, but that's pretty heavy-duty stuff.

You may want to call IBM on this one - it's not an easy task making a
machine not HMC-managed in its entirety.  It's easy to make the FSP
updates managed by the OS, but to get the HMC=0 off the display will
take some more work.

Subject: Not HMC


Last month, we put an HMC on our i520 to look at possibly partitioning
it.
That was a complete failure since the box is capped (a different
problem).

So I removed the HMC and put the Ops Console back in and everything
seemed great until....

I put on PTFs and some of them are the firmware updates.  The system
still thinks it is HMC managed even though it isn't. SST shows console
as Ops Console.

Any ideas what to do next before I call IBM?

Sharon
