Enhancements and fixes

Server and Partition Management

  • Corrected a problem in the partition create wizard for systems with multiple processor pools defined. The option to select one of those pools is not enabled. This prevents the user from setting up the profile as desired via the create partition/profile wizard.
  • Corrected a problem with IO tables in Partition Profile dialog. The physical IO table in the Profile Properties dialog no longer was enabling the slot column entries as hyperlinks. This prevented the user from being able to see detailed IO adapter properties or assign the adapters to IO Pools via the UI.
  • Fixes a problem where modification to Kerberos and LDAP configuration on the HMC incorrectly updates PAM configuration files. This situation can lead to improper authentication.
  • Corrected the LPAR activation HSCL05E9 error that occurred when a profile has one or more logical ports from HEA and HEA DRCIndex has a letter in it.
  • Corrected a problem when setting the promiscuous LPAR for a HEA physical port, then afterwards change the speed and duplex values which resulted in an HSCL1585 error.

Platform Management

  • Corrected a WCL renderering issue where a TreeStyleUI Error is logged causing the UI to refresh and call home SRC E355104C.
  • Corrected a problem where Managed System connectivity is lost when the DHCP range for the private network is changed on the HMC.

Problem Analysis

  • Corrected a problem where multiple SRCs were being reported by a frame (BPA) to the HMC. The correct owning CEC MTMS is now associated with the error instead of using the reporting HMC's MTMS.
  • Eliminated E332FFFF reference code from being generated when pedbg or hmcdebuginfo is run. In these cases, the core and/or dump are requested by the command and are now being collected by that command and not called home.
  • Eliminated E355049F reference code from being generated due to an error in the HMC Exchange Enclosure function.
  • Extended the surveillance timeout for LocalSurveillanceAnalysis Domain from 5 to 15 minutes. The B3030001 serviceable event was previously logged when FSPs are restarted and do not come back within 5 minutes.

Repair and Verify

  • Added Repair & Verify Fill and Drain Tool support for the IBM POWER 595 and 575 systems.
  • Corrected the BPC UEPO procedure navigation buttons for the IBM POWER 595 and 575 systems.
  • Updated the graphics in the IBM POWER 570 Node Concurrent Maintenance procedure.
  • Updated the graphics in the NAM procedure for the IBM POWER 595 system.
  • Corrected support for the isolate procedures associated with cross communication, cross power, IBF, and UPIC cables for IH and HE systems.
  • Added support for the IBM POWER 595 and 570 systems IO drawer isolate and symbolic routines.

System Plan

  • Corrected a system plan creation problem resulting in a java.lang.NumberFormatException with POWER5 system and at least one VLAN adapter that specifies "IEEE 802.1q compatible adapter" setting.
  • Corrected a system plan creation problem resulting in an exception with an unknown error when the install of the VIOS OS was done through an HEA.
