  • 1.  UEFI and IMM on HS22

    I want to be able to access the IMM in my vSphere environment. I've got it working using the following steps:

    Download The Latest Update Express from IBM (Windows Version)

    Create a Repository of Updates for your Server

    Use FastSCP to copy that directory up to the root user diretory on your ESX Server

    putty into ESX Server, su -l

    chmod +x uxspi302.rhel5

    ./uxspi302.rhel5 update -l ibm_utl_uxsp_p9sp00a-1.21_virtual_32-64.xml

    Reboot ESX and you’ll see a new network interface

    Add VM Network and network port on a VM

    Assign IP Address 169.254.95.1

    Open Webpage to 169.254.95.118 (USERID-PASSW0RD)

    It works swimmingly except for the fact that it breaks HA.

    Can anyone tell me why this may be? As soon as I delete the IBM_CDC_vSwitch0 HA works fine.

    Cheers.
