EOS of x86 Hardware Appliance
HMC V9 R1 is the last release to support the 7042-CR7 and CR8
machine types. HMC V9R2 will support 7042-CR9, the 7063 machine
types and Virtual HMC Appliances (x86/ppc64le) only.
Note: iFixes and Service packs for V9 R1 will be supported
on 7042-CR7 and CR8 machine types until EoS of V9 R1.
Install notes
Electronic Service Agent may fail to start after the mandatory
restart of the PTF install. This can impact services
such as call home of inventory.
To verify if the service successfully started run the command:
netstat -ln | grep 5024
One line showing port 5024 in LISTEN states indicates the
service successfully started. No action is needed.
Successful example: tcp6
0 0
:::5024
:::*
LISTEN
If no output is returned the HMC should be rebooted to restart the
services (
hmcshutdown -r -t now).
New function
- Allow reclaim of resources even when the vPMEM volumes are
associated with the partition.\
List of fixes
General fixes

Options panel is not enabled.
- Fixed RMC operations failure with "UNAUTHENT requires 's'
permission" error during DLPAR operation.
- Fixed an issue where a 5 minute timeout value specified on
the chhwres command is ignored during a memory remove
operation and a 120 minute timeout value is used
instead. This issue only occurs when 5 minutes is
specified as the timeout value.
- Increased the default timeout value in UI and Rest to 120
minutes.
- Fixed an issue to ensure that both encryption is set when
authentication is set and vice versa for email notification
setup.
- Fixed an issue where profile activation fails when 2 VIOS
with same Virtual Ethernet adapter configuration with same
vlan ids and additional ids but one of them is not a trunk
adapter.
- Improved the error message when user is trying to remove
storage from running partition.
- Corrected a misleading error message while performing remote
restart operation when the RR status is Source Remote
Restarting.
- Fixed an issue where the Power Enterprise Pool (PEP) GUI Set
Master task was allowed to be performed by any user, instead
of only users with the "Change Capacity on Demand" task role.
- Fixed an issue where ppt_ratio value was returned as null on
systems capable of ppt_ratio setting.
- Fixed an issue where additional vlan remains in the last
valid configuration of VIOS even though a virtual network that
is an additional vlan on existing trunk adapter is deleted.
This issue also impacts the last activated profile when
automatically save configuration to profile is enabled.
- Fixed an issue that caused Save Current Configuration to
generate a saved profile named profile_0 where the number
incremented each time rather than the specified profile name.
This issue only impacts partitions that have Remote Restart
enabled but have a configuration error that causes Local
Storage Update Failed.
- Fixed an issue where launching UI task might show errors for
a server (General Settings, Processor, Memory, I/O, Virtual
Networks, Virtual NICs) in some specific scenarios with
running Linux Partitions on POWER8 systems.
- Fixed an issue with profiles of where the Specify MAC
Address Restrictions option is neither reflected nor able to
be set while editing SR-IOV logical ports on systems capable

names longer than 13 characters in the VIOS and adapters tab
of the Add Virtual Network wizard.
- Fixed an intermittent issue where the partition storage
diagram cannot be viewed due to some stale entry in the
Storage Information
- Fix to prevent the secondary HMC to take over as primary
during daily 'primary arbitration' scheduled task if a repair
operation is running.
- Fixed gaps in the PCM data not showing up in the dashboard
when run for a few days in a scaled environment and improved
response time of the Aggregated metrics API
- Fix to reduce slowness in pedbg data collection
- Fixed a CEC periodically going to Incomplete state with
NovaLink co-management

effect when there was only a change to the case (upper case to
lower or vice-versa) of the characters
- Fixed an issue with the REST call
"/rest/api/uom/ManagedSystem?hwinventory=true" that does not
return the results of the PowerSupplies and FANs XML on the
first attempt.
- Fix to prevent call home of SRCs E23D040A and E2FF4500.
- Fixed a NullPointerException while creating a sysplan
resulting in error
- Fixed a performance issue that caused memory alerts to
report SRC E35A0073 for call home.
- Fixed an issue where BMC events would get re-reported by the
HMC.
- Fix to the actions menu options issue based on selection in
VNIC Tab of Edit Partition Template.
- Fixed lock timeout problem for cross HMC concurrent
bi-directional partition migration operations.
- Fixed an issue that caused a Power enterprise pool to show
an incorrect number of unreturned processors or unreturned
memory for the pool after a server in the pool that was
unreachable from the master HMC came back up. This issue
only occurs if the server had unreturned resources before it
came back up, and those unreturned resources were able to be
automatically reclaimed when the server came back up.
- Fix for a failed partition migration operation without error
message resulting in LPM in the other direction error of
HSCL8012 The partition named was not found
- Fixed an issue while trying to view the Manage Inbound
Connectivity panel when a system was connected using ipv6

network configuration tab of Deploy System Template was
missing.
- Fix to block the user from modifying the backing device type
while the partition template is opened in view mode.
- Fixed an issue where processor throttling may not be
started, adjusted, or stopped on a server in a Power
enterprise pool 2.0 when that server is managed by 2 HMCs and
the state of the server on one of the HMCs is not in Standby
or Operating state.
- Fixed an issue when an error occurs while modifying dynamic
memory allocation for a partition, but is not displayed to the
user. The memory allocation appears to be update for the
change even though the memory was not really updated in the
partition.
- Fixed an issue with reporting a truncated SRN for an
operating system event when calling home.
- Fixed an issue where the user is unable to view the
memory panel for partitions on some BSR capable servers.
Errors returned include:

- Addressed the libssh2 vulnerability: CVE-2019-17498
Known issues and limitations
- Customer will not be able to create Power Enterprise Pool if
IP address not configured properly in Add HMC window in Create
Pool Wizard. Workaround is (1) Configure the eth0 to have the
same ip address as specified in the Create Pool Wizard. (2) Use
REST API or CLI to create pool.
- SRC E3550046 is observed, when n/w connection drops while
handling nvram changes.
- Recovery from a DLPAR failure doesn't restore the resources
appropriately.
- lsprimhmc includes an incorrect host name for master
when the peer HMC is master and there is DNS entry for the
private ip.
- A failure occurs during a pool (CPU/Memory) update operation
that prevents adding the resource to the server.
- Partition Template does not have POWER9 processor
compatibility mode in the list.
- chhmc -c syslog does not validate -h parameter
value
- chhmcfs and lshmcfs do not handle the
/var/hsc/log filesystem separately from the /var
filesystem. This affects when cleaning up only one of
those 2 filesystems.
- chlickey does not handle newline at end of the
lickeyfile.txt file
- Java Null pointer exception observed when firewall is enabled
in bond configuration
- Error observed when USB is formatted from GUI
- User shall see that help page is not getting loaded for
storage pool with reduce option
- Console internal error observed when clicked on Help button in
View VLAN Network Data
- Console Internal error observed when Help button is clicked in
Create virtual Disk Panel
- When perform the CLI command ""lslparmigr -r virtualio -m
<srcCecName> -t <dstCecName> --vniccfg 2 --filter
""lpar_ids=<lparId>"", with the partition in the
Open Firmware state the operation may fail with the following
error message: "HSCLB91D The partition cannot be migrated to
the destination managed system because the destination managed
system does not support the operating system of the migrating
partition."
- During LPM operation, when there is an SRIOV mapping failure
at the destination, the Validate button in the "LPM validate
window" gets disabled after closing the error message box.
- DLPAR operation to reducing memory fails with HMC internal
error and the GUI session times-out. The workaround is to
relaunch the UI.
- LPM with VNICs without first doing validation fails when vNIC
backing devices are mapped to a target adapter which is switched
to dedicated mode right before the migration.
- HMC APIs may fail with service unavailable (503) error when
there is a heapdump in progress on that service

- The initial release of the V9 HMC is VRM V9.R1.M910.0
- If a PTF with a security fix comes out the following
month, the lshmc –V output would show "Version: 9
Release: 1 Service Pack: 910" as well as the iFix PTF
number and description. lshmc -v output would list
it as V9R1.910.1.
- If Service Pack 1 comes out 3 months later, the VRMF
will then be V9.R1.M911.0
- Interim fixes (iFixes) are only published for the most
recent service pack level. Once a Service Pack is
released, for example 9.1.941.0, you must update 9.1.91x to
9.1.941.0 to obtain future iFixes for V9R1.
- When the release is incremented to 9.2 instead of 9.1, new
recovery images or vHMC images will be published & a fresh
install/upgrade can be done from previous releases.
- Maintenance releases will be supported until they are
superseded by the next subsequent maintenance level.

the
Activation
Engine feature.
Notes for the Virtual Appliance for x86 hypervisors
- The supported hypervisors for x86 are
- VMWARE ESXi 6.0 or higher
- KVM on Red Hat RHEL7 or higher
- Xen 4.2 or higher on SLES 12
- There are now two images for the VMWare ESXi Server, one is
for ESXi 6.0 and the other for ESXi 6.5. This is due to
differences in the encoding of the OVA images. SHA1 for ESXi
6.0 , SHA256 for ESXi 6.5
- The processor on the systems hosting vHMC for x86 must have
either Intel VT-x or AMD-V Hardware Virtualization enabled.

UI support.
- DLPAR operations such as memory and processor moves for HMCs
running in an LPAR are not supported.
- Inactive partition migration and Simplified Remote Restart
operations are supported.
- The virtual appliance for PowerVM requires a Power8 or
Power9 server that is enabled for little endian support.
Minimum System Firmware 860 recommended for Power8 servers.

General Virtual HMC notes
- Virtual HMC Appliance can be deployed in your existing POWER
virtualized infrastructure. Virtual HMC Appliance supports
install into PowerVM LPARs.
- Call home of serviceable events with a failing MTMS of the
HMC itself is disabled. Those serviceable events should
be manually reported to IBM software support.
- To see if you are running on a virtual HMC use the lshmc -v
command. If it displays a UVMID field, then you are running in
a virtual machine.
Example:
lshmc -v
"vpd=*FC ????????
*VC 20.0
*N2 Thu Sep 14 15:02:44 UTC 2017
*FC ????????
*DS Hardware Management Console
*TM Vc87-f0a
*SE 7f61457
*MN IBM
*PN N/A
*SZ 8371892224
*OS Embedded Operating Systems
*NA 127.0.0.1
*FC ????????
*DS Platform Firmware
*RM V8R8.7.0.0
*UVMID c87f:0a7f:603a:1457
"
- When deploying a virtual HMC, if the mac address is not
specified, it will be generated by the hypervisor.
Network configuration on the HMC relies on the value of MAC
addresses. If you re-deploy a new virtual HMC and want to
restore critical console data previously taken on a virtual
HMC, ensure sure you are using the same MAC addresses.
- When using Activation Engine to setup NTP configuration, you
must specify the NTP version value.
- We recommend upgrading to the new image that uses 500GB by
following the steps below:
- From the current HMC version (e.g. HMC V8.860.0),
upgrade to HMC V9 R1 M910
- When the upgrade is complete the HMC is now at a new
version but still has a 160GB disk.
- Perform a Critical Console Data backup, excluding
network information and store the backup to a remote
location.
- Deploy the new HMC V9 R1 M910 image which uses a 500GB
disk.
- After the HMC boots up with the 500GB disk, restore the
Critical Console data.
