Aha true enough. But as with all LandMines this may happen when you
don't expect it. If the designated service partition is the only one
running and it does a PWRDWNSYS RESTART(*YES) you get a server IPL (or
Deep IPL as IBM refers to i) as a free 'bonus'. The MH PTFs get applied
as fixes to the firmware, they are made active AND automatically
accepted to the P side and then i5/OS comes back up 'after a time.' If
your HMC is too old to communicate with the new level of code in the FSP
then it stays dark and you call IBM. :-) Therein is the landmine -
discovered when you were not looking for it.

Hi Pete,
With OS managed HMC you need a server IPL to update the FSP, not a simple
pwrdwnsys for applying PTFs.
