System Software Update (BIOS, BMC, and FRU/SDR)
The IBM System Update Package (SUP) CD-ROM should be used to update the system software. The SUP
contains the BIOS, BMC, and FRU/SDR software and load utilities. The SUP can install all of these
components with just a single reboot. The system should be booted to the SUP CD and the user can
choose which components to upgrade. The System Resource CD does not include the FRU/SDR, BIOS,
or BMC software.
Installing a Service Partition
When you are setting up your server system, you can optionally install a service partition onto your
hard drive. The service partition includes utilities and other software that can be run locally or
remotely to assist in server management. The service partition uses approximately 40 MB of hard
disk space.
The service partition can be installed with the Server Configuration Wizard on the System
Resource CD.
NOTE
It is highly recommended that you install the service partition before installing
an operating system.
To install the service partition using the Server Configuration Wizard:
1. Use the System Resource CD to boot the server to the Server Configuration Wizard.
2. Click on the "Continue>>" button.
3. Select the "Server Configuration Wizard" option and click on the "Continue" button.
4. Select the "Run Wizard" option and click on the "Continue" button.
5. Select the "Install/Update a Service Partition" option and click on the "Continue" button.
