Firmware Update Policy
A typical customization is to define the firmware licensed internal code (LIC)
update policy. This setting specifies whether firmware updates will be done by
the HMC or by the operating system. The ASMI menus provide an option to
establish this policy, as shown in Figure 7-12.
