v Reset Service Processor

v Reprogram Service Processor Flash EPROM
Attention: Only the service processor firmware can be updated from the service
processor menus; the system firmware cannot be updated from the service processor
menus. A service processor firmware update always requires a companion system
firmware update which must be applied first. For this reason, updating only the
service processor firmware using the service processor menus is not recommended.
Go to the RS/6000 support web site at http://www.rs6000.ibm.com/support/micro to
download the latest firmware levels and update instructions.
The service processor firmware update image must be written onto a DOS-formatted
diskette. The update image can be obtained from the RS/6000 support web site:
http://www.rs6000.ibm.com/support/micro.
After the update diskette has been made, from the service processor main menu,
select "Service Processor Setup". Then select "Reprogram Service Processor Flash
EPROM". The program requests the update diskette(s) as they are needed. The
service processor will automatically reboot after the firmware update is complete.
