The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Without an HMC, Justin would have to be on site to apply the firmware and do the startup, correct.
Would a virtual HMC be of value in this case, allow him to apply firmware / start remotely.

Many (not all) firmware upgrades are nondisruptive, if you use an HMC.
I've put them on our main production machines midday.
Those that do require a full server reboot are no problem to do remotely.
I've done it multiple times.
HMC's rock.
