Justin,

WIth a single partition and no HMC, you should not need to worry about "firmware" levels ...  as long as you are applying all the CUMe and Group PTFs on a regular basis, that should take care of it for you automatically.

This is known as "OS-managed" firmware, vs. "HMC-managed."  See:

for more information.

Hope that helps,

Mark S. Waterbury

I have a single partition (no HMC) 9009-41A running IBMi 7.3.  The current firmware is VL910_122  MH01799.  The IBM chart (https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/server-firmware-stand-alone-ibm-i-systems) shows higher versions on LV910, as well as VL930 and VL940.  I don't see any explanation to what the various Version Levels mean.




Can anyone give me a synopsis, or throw me a link that explains firmware?


TIA
