Integrated Management Module (IMM) Firmware Update
Change History

IMPORTANT: Prerequisite for updating to IMM firmware version 1.30 (yuooc7e)
========== Updating to IMM firmware version 1.30 (yuooc7e) requires the current
IMM firmware version to be 1.10 (yuoo57h), or later. If this prerequisite is not
met before updating to version 1.30 (yuooc7e) the system will not power on
correctly. If the system is not running a minimum of IMM version 1.10 (yuoo57h),
update the IMM before attempting to update to 1.30 (yuooc7e).
This prerequisite was a limitation of IMM version 1.30, and it has been fixed
in IMM version 1.31(yuooc7f). This prerequisite does not apply to IMM version 1.31
or later.

IMPORTANT: Please DO NOT apply the firmware update (yuoo91e, v1.24)
========= if you are using AEM functions in x3620M3 or x3630M3. The
v1.24 firmware will disable the power capping functionality in those two
systems. Please remain on the current IMM version or update the firmware
to v1.25 or newer. Users not using AEM functions can still update to v1.24.

IMPORTANT: Read before using the MAX5
========== This Technical Update supplements the documentation that comes
with the IBM MAX5 for System x. Keep this document with your other MAX5
documentation. Before you attach the MAX5 to the server and try to use it,
you must update the server firmware with the latest level of firmware or
code. If you attach and try to use the MAX5 without updating the server
firmware, you might get unexpected system behavior or the server might
not power on. For special instructions to follow before you attach the MAX5
to the server, go to
http://www.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/docdisplay?lndocid=MIGR-5085756.

IBM maintains pages on the World Wide Web where you can get the latest
technical information and download device drivers and updates. To access
these pages, go to http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/ and follow the
instructions.

IMPORTANT: If you are at IMM firmware versions prior to 1.12 (yuoo67c) and
========== updating IMM firmware in Microsoft Windows, when you update IMM to
versions between 1.14 (YUOO73M) and 1.30 (YUOOC7E), it will take up to 10 minutes
additional wait time; when you update IMM to version 1.30 (YUOOC7E) or later, it
will take up to 20 minutes additional wait time. This is due to the iflash tool
checking the IMM before flashing. During this time the flashing process may appear
hung or unresponsive. The flashing will then complete and there is no functional
impact.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the current IMM firmware level is 1.14 or later
========== before you update the uEFI, FPGA, or DSA Preboot firmware.
The recommended firmware update sequence is IMM followed by UEFI
followed by FPGA followed by DSA Preboot.

IMPORTANT: A firmware change was made in YUOO57H (v1.10) that enforces the
========= requirement for login accounts on the IMM to have passwords that
contain both alpha and numeric characters. If you are updating the IMM firmware
from YUOO56K (v1.09) or earlier, to YUOO57H (v1.10) or newer, prior to updating
the firmware, please ensure that the IMM user account passwords contain
both alpha and numeric characters. If the firmware is updated and the passwords
do not contain both alpha and numeric characters, you may need to reset the IMM
to its default settings using the menus in the UEFI F1 set up display.

IMPORTANT: When updating the IMM firmware from a version earlier than
========= version 1.05 (build YUOO32F) to version 1.05 or newer, the
Remote Alert Recipient Email Addresses and the Daylight Saving
Time setting will revert to the default setting.
Users that utilize these settings will need to set them again
after the update.

IMPORTANT: When updating IMM, uEFI, pDSA, FPGA via any method,
========== please follow firmware update best practice document
(http://www-947.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/docdisplay?brand=
5000020&lndocid=MIGR-5082923) for suggested update sequence and prerequisite.

IMPORTANT: Due to an Intel errata, if your server is running a 32-bit Linux
========== Operating System, C-states may need to be disabled while updating
uEFI, IMM, or DSA Preboot through the Linux command line interface. See
RETAIN TIP H195678 for more information. Updates performed through the AMM,
Bootable Media Creator, or the IMM web or CLI interfaces do not have this
requirement.

IMPORTANT: Updated firmware version numbers might not be visible in SMBIOS
========== tables until after the server is rebooted.

IMPORTANT: After downgrading IMM firmware from version 1.22
========== to an earlier version, the user needs to reset the
IMM to factory default before normal operation.

IBM HBA/LSI 6Gb SAS/SATA/SSD Driver for Windows

Supported Controllers: ServeRAID H1110 SAS/SATA Controller for IBM System x (81Y4492)
IBM 6Gb SAS HBA (46M0907)
IBM 6Gb SSD HBA (68Y7362)


NOTE TO SERVICE - Reference RETAIN #N/A

Version 2.00.45.00 - Suggested
------------------
Ehancement(s):
- Add support for ServeRAID H1110 SAS/SATA Controller for IBM System x
- Add conversion of sense data descriptor format to fixed format, so drives 2.1TB in
size and greater can return descriptor format sense data. For these drives to work
properly under Windows, the miniport needs to convert the descriptor format sense
data to fixed format before returning the sense data up the stack.

Fixes:
- Add check for sense data type (fixed vs. descriptor) in CheckSmartInfo where large
physical drives 2TB in size and greater use the descriptor format for sense data in
order to pass back 64-bit LBA addresses. Most drives use the fixed format sense data,
is the only format the upper layers of the Windows stack supports

Disclaimer
==========
- FCoE: Broadcom only officially supports the FCoE and DCB feature set on adapters that are licensed for FCoE,
and for which EMC e-Labs certification is already complete or in progress.
Broadcom will *not* provide field support for unqualified platforms.
Please refer to the EMC e-Labs certification matrix for existing support matrix postings,
or contact your Broadcom liaison to inquire about configurations currently in the qualification
queue for eventual support. Exercising either FCoE or DCB on an unsupported platform may lead to unpredictable results.



Caveats
=======
- Windows 2003 support was discontinued as of the T7.0 program.
- preventing driver install in W2K3 environment
- preventing enumeration of iSCSI HBA in W2K3 environment
- F6 kit is removed (no iSCSI boot over L4 path into W2K3)


Prerequisite
============
- For FCoE evaluation, 57712A1+8727C NIC adapters with valid FCoE license
- For FCoE, NVRAM flag 105 must be enabled for DCB/DCBX
- DCB/DCBX is required for FCoE
- In order to enable FCoE, only the new 'MFW' firmware image can be used. Please use the eDiag supplied in this kit
and upgrade the legacy boot code (and NCSI) to the new 'MFW' image


Package NOTES:

(1) When updating drivers via UXSPi, the utility will prompt version
number(s) of drivers loaded on system that are pertinent to the
Operating System being updated. After the utility completes and
drivers are updated, there may be some driver version(s) where the
New Version does not match the Installed Version. This may be because
the adapter corresponding to the driver is not installed. Adapters
must be installed to gain proper version numbers from the utility.
Please disregard version numbers that do not pertain to the adapter(s)
you have installed.

(2) When extracting files from this package, Windows 2008 R2 extract
to floppy may not work. This is due to change in Windows security
settings, and may become a limitation.

*******Currently known issues and limitations with Broadcom NetXtreme drivers and devices. ********

1. BASP (the Broadcom Advanced Server Program) will appear to be bound to all adapters
in the system once loaded. This binding is normal and is used only to determine
compatibility with BASP. The binding is not active, as indicated by the gray background
of the selection box. This pre-binding will not interfere with bindings to other software
protocols.

2. The NetXtreme II drivers have two parts, the VBD driver and the NDIS Client driver. This
combination of drivers can be used for WinPE installations as long as the WinPE image is
built with the /PnP option. WinPE images that are booted with the -miniNT option will only
load the NDIS driver so NetXtreme II network devices will not be functional in this
environment. Use the -winpe option instead of the -minint option to boot WinPE when using
NetXtreme II devices or use the special RIS driver contained in the distribution package in
the NX2_RIS_Driver directory of the unpacked files.

3. Specifying network settings for NetXtreme II devices using the Microsoft unattended answer
file does not work using the PCI Bus/Device/Function designation to specify adapters. This
is due to the NDIS personality of the NetXtreme II device being a virtual device which
means it does not have a physical Bus/Device/Function address. MAC address designation
does work and may be used in conjunction with Bus/Device/Function for a complete solution.
A program called netset.exe from Microsoft, available in the Windows 2000 Server Resource
Kit, can also be used to apply network settings after the unattended install. Netset.exe
uses the answer file to apply the network settings specified to the adapters in the system.
See Microsoft Knowledge Base article 268781 for more information on netset.exe.

4. The first time diagnostics are run in a Windows environment on NetXtreme II devices, the
diagnostic driver must be installed. Windows will either automatically install the driver,
in which case, no action is required by the user, or Windows will ask to be directed to the
INF file for the diagnostic driver. If you are prompted to install the driver, please direct
the Windows dialog to search for the driver in the directory where the Broadcom driver
package was unzipped. You may also search your hard drive for the file “bxdiag.inf.”

5. When loading drivers through the PNP (Plug and Play) method, users can occasionally end up
loading the RIS drivers accidentally. Generally this occurs when a user is asked to point
to the proper driver for the device, and the user selects the folder containing the RIS
drivers as the driver for the device. This can result in network connections that fail to
communicate across the network, as the NDIS driver will fail to bind to the devices. The
most obvious way to identify the problem scenario is to open BACS and look at the network
adapters displayed. Adapters that have the RIS drivers installed will be grayed out.
Observing the driver loaded for the System Device portion of the Broadcom NetXtreme II
devices will show that the RIS driver is loaded. Additionally, attempts to load the
drivers using the installer will result in NDIS drivers displaying a yellow bang, as they’re
not able to bind to the VBD driver. The easiest way to correct the problem is to run
add/remove programs on all installed Broadcom devices, and then re-run the installer.

6. Windows Pre-installation Environment (WinPE for short) does not contain native support for
5708, 5709, 5716, 57710 and 57711 devices on operating systems prior to Windows Server
2008 R2. In order to “inject” driver support into Windows PE, refer to the steps provided by
Microsoft at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923834/en-us. Broadcom 5708 Network Controller
support is available as a native driver package in the Windows Server 2008 OS.

7. Network Teaming limitation with iSCSI offload: When iSCSI offload is enabled on Broadcom
NetXtreme II NIC's or LOM's, only SLB teaming mode is supported. In order to create other
teaming modes like 802.3ad and FEC/GEC, you will need to disable iSCSI offload. You can
disable the iSCSI offload by
a. launching the Broadcom Advanced Control Suite 3 (BACS 3).
b. select the adapter you want to add to the team
c. click the configurations tab, extend resource reservations.
d. Uncheck iSCSI resource.

8. When iSCSI devices are installed on Windows Server 2003 or Server 2008, they will have the
same friendlyname. View devices "by connections" in BACS3 on for managing iSCSI devices.

9. Restoring the team configuration with static IPv6 addresses may fail. Use either DHCP
addresses for team configuration, or restore the team and re-apply the IP address manually
if this issue is encountered.

10. When working in BACS while being logged into W2K3 x86 with a non-administrator account, the
same icon that is used for a non-teamed adapter is being displayed for a teamed adapter. This
is due to the fact the non-admin account cannot query the driver due to insufficient privileges.

11. Windows Server 2008 R2 is expected to support the ability to utilize the TCP Offload Engine
(TOE) on child partitions for supported Guest operating systems. However, the stack
supporting this feature was not fully matured upon the completion of this Windows drivers
release. As a result, we do not recommend enabling this capability with these drivers until
an update to resolve these issues are released. This is now understood to be a third-party
issue.

12. After upgrading to this version of the software in W2K8 we have noticed that during a team
restore in BACS3 that not all of the IPv4 addresses for VLANS are restored properly. This
may require that the team be recreated and saved.

13. Remote install of Windows Server 2008 R2 over non-offload path (MSFT stack) with new Broadcom
adapters, e.g. 57711, which are not supported by the inbox driver will fail. The problem is
due to a conflict between the inbox (boot.wim) driver not able to support the new adapters.
Although the installer provides a newer driver externally during the installation, the OS
reverts back to the inbox. Please refer to the workaround provided through the following
link:http://attachments.wetpaintserv.us/JA9hJcVpHrEi11mJ19vYVg%3D%3D23856.

Alternatively, Microsoft’s proposed solution is to build a custom install DVD by extracting
the boot.wim and overwrite the .INF and .SYS files with Broadcom’s newer driver set. Please
read Microsoft’s WAIK documentation for instruction process.

Note: Remote install of Windows Server 2008 R2 over Broadcom iSCSI Offload path does not have
an issue.

14. Flow control statistics (MAC Sent X-ON, MAC Sent X-OFF and MAC Rx w/ no Pause Command) are
reported incorrectly within BACS for 57710 based adapters. There is no functional impact and
device is working as expected.

15. Receive Side Scaling (RSS) on TCP offloaded connections require a minimum of 8 gigabytes of
RAM and only works for the 64-bit version of Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
This feature is not supported in Windows Server 2003 due to a limitation in this operating
system. RSS on non-offloaded connections, however, is supported for Windows 2003 SP2 and later.

16. WoL with NPar: When using Wake on LAN (WoL) with NIC Partitioning, all of the devices that
comprise a port must be shut down to cause the WoL configuration to be written to the
controller during operating system shutdown. If only a single function is shut down, the
WoL configuration might not be written to the controller, and the controller might not wake.

17. Editing BASP teams: There is a known problem where editing a BASP team in BACS can sometimes
cause a failover to occur on another team. This is currently believed to be a Microsoft issue,
and Broadcom is pursuing a fix or workaround.

18. NC-SI with IOMMU: There is a known problem using NC-SI with IOMMU enabled, that can cause
link down/up under stress conditions. If this occurs, disabled IOMMU in the BIOS.
