CDA Microcode Update Instructions

87.0.x.x – 87.51.x.x

Transformation
• HMC Rebuild to upgrade the base Operating System
Preload
• Acquire code from source (media or network), distribute to components (staging for use later)

HMC Update / SFI Activate

• This step is to be completed in one day
• Please expect communication errors from monitoring or diagnostic tools until the CCL completes

After the CDA Preload is started the following steps will be performed automatically:
- Acquire of the release bundle
- Prepare the HMC with any code update specific fixes
- Distribute the code updates to the LPAR and install them to an alternate BOS
- Perform scheduled CDA Preverify scans until the distributed code is ready to be activated by the user for up to 11 days.

non-preload instructions for all other configurations.

v4.71 – Page 4
STEP A - Before starting Preload – Check HMC hard drive is good – ICS Image

Note: If you just came from APP C, no need to install this one again – Continue to STEP 1

Install PFE_Console_Hard_Drive_Test_v1.1 ICS Disk:

ICS Disk Installation

Select: HMC Management
Select: Install Corrective services
Insert ICS Disk into HMC DVD drive.
Select: Next to confirm Current HMC Driver Information
Select: Removable Media and Next
Select: CD-ROM or DVD and Next
Select: Media Image and Next (no image description is standard)
Select: Finish to confirm -- Install Corrective Service install will take less than 15 minutes ---
The CD will run and display results of the process
Click OK then No (Reboot HMC not required)
Repeat on HMCB, if applicable
Continue to Step 1

STEP 1 Starting CDA Preload

If you were directed to STEP 1 from Appendix B, please understand you are starting Preload. Appendix B was standard
Acquire only to the HMC.

There are two ways to begin a Preload.

Media Acquire:

Insert the release bundle DVD into the primary HMC1 drive. You do not need to be logged in, but you can be.

The HMC will automatically begin acquiring the release bundle from the DVD. The welcome screen will state that the
HMC is “Importing media”. If a user is logged in, a progress panel will automatically pop up. After the acquire is complete,
the welcome screen and progress window will be updated to let the user know the acquire is complete and media can be
ejected. Preload will automatically continue with code distribution. ~ 45 minutes
Media should be removed from HMC drive.

For machines with Dual HMC, the bundle DVD removed from HMC1 should NOT be inserted into the HMC2 drive. The
bundle will automatically be acquired from HMC1 via internal network.
When complete the welcome screen and progress window will be updated to let the user know the acquire is complete.
No other actions will be automatically performed on HMC2.

Network Acquire:

Log in to HMC1
Select: Updates
Select: Radio button on the HMC line
Select: Acquire Code Images

a) CDA4TP (Please follow CDA4TP acquire instructions – located on the Tips db or Wiki)

A progress panel will automatically pop up stating that acquire is complete. Preload distribute will automatically continue
from HMC1.

For Dual HMC, acquire code bundle from network on HMC2. Code will only acquire on HMC2

v4.71 – Page 5
STEP 2 Automatic Distribution

NOTE: Do not run CDA Preverify manually, the code load process will execute it automatically.

CDA will continue to run regular CDA Preverify checks in the background and open serviceable events for any issues
found. Anytime the user logs in during this time frame, the preload activation panel will come up which also shows the
last CDA Preverify scan time. If the user chooses to cancel the automatically opened panel, it will not be shown again
until the next login.

After the distribute completes, the user will have 11 days to activate the preloaded code. During this time the machine
can be used normally, including making logical configuration changes and repairing any issues.

Note: If cancel is selected, the preload status panel will be closed. To return to this panel go to the Updates menu, select
the Storage Facility from the target list and choose the “Display Preload Status” utility.

When the code distribution is complete, SRC BEFCDA01 will be created and called home.

STEP 3 HMC Code Activation

Note: If there are no HMC updates, the automated process will go directly to STEP 4, Storage Facility update.

Check on both HMCs if AOS is running:

Select: HMC Management

Select: Manage AOS

If Status is running, the AOS service needs to be restarted after the HMC Code Activation

Log in to the HMC and remove any Microcode media from the drive.
If already logged in and the preload status panel has been closed, go to the
Updates menu, select the Storage Facility from the target list, choose the “Display Preload Status” utility

Bundle 87.xx.xxx.x has been successfully preloaded on SFI xxxx-961*xxxxxxx.

However, before this preload can be activated, an HMC update to this bundle is
required. Do you want to update the HMC to this level now?
* xxxx-961*xxxxxxx passed CDA Preverify less than an hour ago

Yes | No

Do NOT continue if the Preload has EXPIRED – you MUST restart the Preload (STEP 1) and then continue.

Do not continue until passed CDA Preverify is displayed.

CDA Preverify must automatically run one time successfully before selecting Yes.

- If a window is shown with a list of serviceable events, open the serviceable event management task and repair each of
the issues.

If all conditions above are met, and you are ready to Start the HMC update:
Select: Yes, to start the HMC update

Proceeding with update will take the HMC offline. Do you want to continue?

Yes | No

Select: Yes to take the HMC offline

v4.71 – Page 6
 Continued on next page...

The update of HMC1 will continue...... ~20 minutes

Update successful. Press OK to complete the update and reboot.

OK

Select: OK to reboot ~13 minutes

**If the HMC hangs at initialize screen for more that 5 minutes, reboot again by selecting the Alt Ctrl and F1 keys, then
Alt Ctrl Del keys. Use Alt and Ctrl keys on the left side of keyboard.

Start AOS service if it was running prior the HMC Code Activation.

If this is a single HMC configuration continue to the section: Storage Facility code activation

For Dual HMC configurations:

Update HMC2 from HMC1

Log into HMC1 after the reboot and receive message that HMC2 needs to be updated.
Select: Yes (this will update the secondary HMC from the primary)
Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the update of HMC2

Start AOS service if it was running prior the HMC Code Activation.

Continue with the next section: Storage Facility code activation

Step 4 Storage Facility code activation

NOTE: Do not run EOC or CDAPreverify until SFI activation complete

Log in to HMC1 - The following screen will display:

Please stop and follow Step 4a before continuing

Bundle 87.xx.xxx.x has been successfully preloaded on SFI xxxx-961*xxxxxxx

Do you want to activate this code now? (Note: Activation expires in x days.)
