IBM System Storage TS7600 with ProtecTIER: Installation Roadmap Guide
Note: The communication path will be activated in a later procedure. See
Chapter 6, "Configuring the RAS package," on page 83 for more
information.
b. Connect an Ethernet cable from the Integrated Management Module port to
the TSSC Ethernet switch.
Note: This cable is used to allow RAS configuration to reconfigure the IP
address of the IMM port.
The two Ethernet cables are now connected to the TSSC Ethernet switch. This
connection is required to activate the communication paths between the server
and the TSSC in Chapter 6, "Configuring the RAS package," on page 83.
Results
The TSSC is connected to the TS7650G server and you are now ready to ensure
that the code level on the TSSC is up-to-date.
Note: If you are unable to connect to the server using the this procedure, see
Appendix D, "Making a server connection through the System Management
Module (IMM)," on page 155 for instructions on connecting to the server using the
server IMM and your service laptop.
What to do next
Go to "Checking the TSSC microcode level."
This topic describes how to verify the TSSC's microcode level.
Before you begin
Before you can verify the TSSC's microcode level, you must establish a connection
between the TSSC and the server. If you don't have a connection between the TSSC
and the server, go to "Establishing a connection between the TSSC and the server"
on page 73.
About this task
In order to be compatible with ProtecTIER version 2.5, the TSSC must be running
microcode version 5.9.x or higher. If the microcode version on the TSSC is not
current, you must bring it up to the current level.
Use this procedure to verify the TSSC's microcode level.
Procedure
To verify the TSSC's microcode level:
1. Use one of the following options to view the microcode level on the TSSC:
