Make sure that all adapters from the IBM server have been transferred to the upgraded Lenovo
server and that all cables to the server are reconnected.
Update firmware and device drivers for installed components
After performing the physical conversion and updating server firmware, the service technician must also
update the firmware and device drivers for all components installed in the server to their Lenovo versions.
Lenovo firmware and device drivers for installed components are available at
datacentersupport.lenovo.com/
to perform the update.
Verification
After the ITL server upgrade is complete, the service technician must complete the following steps to verify
operation of the Lenovo server:
1. Make sure that the server powers up and passes UEFI initialization (see "Turning on the server" on page
40 and "Using the Setup utility" on page 123).
2. Make sure that you are able to access the IMM (see "Using the integrated management module" on
page 133).
3. Verify that all server vital product data (VPD) is correct (see the Integrated Management Module II User's
Guide at https://systemx.lenovofiles.com/help/topic/com.lenovo.sysx.imm2.doc/printable_doc.html).
4. Make sure that all server firmware is updated to the latest level (see "Updating the firmware " on page
119).
5. Make sure that there are no errors messages (see "Error messages" on page 168).
If problems are encountered following the ITL upgrade, troubleshoot the system using standard methods
(see "Start here" on page 145). If you are unable to resolve the problem, open an online service request, go to
