Re: Firmware update for P10 with New HMC

Yea, sometimes IBM documentation is lacking, while normally fairly good.

What grinds me is when you find the perfect video someone at IBM did, but it’s too old to be relevant. That’s what I ran into.

I understood what Rob was getting at.

I wasn't laughing at Jim not finding the link I provided. I was laughing
at the extremely limited contents of the link provided.

The ROTFLMAO was a bit rude.

He said he was only finding older versions and was asking about newer
versions so obviously he did not find YOUR version.

What, you find the following less than thorough?

I have a customer that wants to learn how to do the Firmware update on
his own on an HMC managed system with multiple partitions, (without my
assistance) and he is asking for documentation.

Google and associated AI come up with many examples, all of them using
the OLDER HMC code, not the new interface.

Maybe I’m searching wrong, but is there a new video or document that
shows how to install and implement the firmware?
