HMC V7.3.4.0 cumulative fix history and Readme
This package includes the following fix:
When the HMC fetches corrective service files via FTP over a slow internet connection, a timeout can occur after 30 minutes. The timeout prevents the update process from completely downloading and installing the corrective service files. The HMC returns the following message:

HSCP0207 "Unspecified error occured while retrieving the corrective service file. Try the operation again."
This fix significantly increases the timeout duration and adds a more descriptive error message to explain the condition.
