Server Executables - Bare Metal Installers

(imported topic written by Casino_Ed)

I recently upgraded from v8.2.1364 up to v9.0.787 and my OS deployment was working up until the upgrade. However, now when I bring up the ‘Bare Metal OS Deployment Server Manager’ page within the console it is showing me that the bare metal installers are out of date. I searched IBM fix central and found the latest version x86): 7.1.1.13 (210.37).

I downloaded and attempted to upload the files, without any name changes, to the console the yellow warning sign changes next to the upload button to a green arrow. All of the other selections when pressed tell me that the upload is still in progress and to refresh the page. After a refresh the green a\rrow is replaced with the yellow warning again and it appears that I have not uploaded anything at all.

I have noticed that it says the current version of the packages to be (7.1.1.13 (210.37)) on the main page, but when you click on upload to search for the download file it shows me that the latest it’s looking for is (7.1.1.13 (210.40))?

If there is a release of 210.40, where can I find it since it does not appear to be on IBM fix central’s site.

Hi Ed,

the Bare Metal server upgrade needs a two step process

  • upload the installer - TPMfOSd 7.1.1.13 210.37 is OK (that 210.40 was only a visual error I am going to fix soon, build 210.37 is correct)

  • upgrade bare metal servers

So first upload the latest installer, then upgrade your bare metal servers.

From what i understood, you only uploaded the installer… please correct me if I mis-understood

thanks

Francesco
