steps:
1) Go to http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/toolsctr/v1r0/index.jsp.
2) In the navigation pane, click IBM System x and BladeCenter Tools
Center.
3) Click Tools reference > Error reporting and analysis tools > IBM

3. Follow the problem-resolution procedures.
The four problem-resolution procedures are presented in the order in which they
are most likely to solve your problem. Follow these procedures in the order in
which they are presented:
a. Check for and apply code updates.
Most problems that appear to be caused by faulty hardware are actually
caused by UEFI code, system firmware, device firmware, or device drivers
that are not at the latest levels.
Important: Some cluster solutions require specific code levels or
coordinated code updates. If the device is part of a cluster solution, verify
that the latest level of code is supported for the cluster solution before you
update the code.
1) Determine the existing code levels.
In DSA, click Firmware/VPD to view system firmware levels, or click
Software to view operating-system levels.
2) Download and install updates of code that is not at the latest level.
To display a list of available updates for your server, go to
http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/supportsite.wss/
docdisplay?brandind=5000008&lndocid=MIGR-4JTS2T or complete the
following steps.
Note: Changes are made periodically to the IBM Web site. The actual
procedure might vary slightly from what is described in this document.
a) Go to http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/.
b) Under Product support, click System x.
c) Under Popular links, click Software and device drivers.
d) Click System x3630 M3 to display the list of downloadable files for
the server.
You can install code updates that are packaged as an UpdateXpress
System Pack or UpdateXpress CD image. An UpdateXpress System
Pack contains an integration-tested bundle of online firmware and
device-driver updates for your server.
Be sure to separately install any listed critical updates that have release
dates that are later than the release date of the UpdateXpress System
Pack or UpdateXpress image.
