FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Lenovo firmware sequencing, management controller and level questions for operators in Japan.

The Asia band puts it at 4 to 7 days door to door from Cairo, before clearance, which we account for separately per shipment.
On these platforms it does. The management controller, system firmware and adapter firmware are interdependent, and the supported path updates them in a defined order. Applying them in a different sequence can leave a component unable to communicate with the layer that would update it next.
At best a component ends up at a level the rest of the machine does not expect and behaves oddly. At worst the management controller and the system firmware disagree enough that remote access is lost, which on a machine you cannot reach physically is a serious position.
The vendor publishes it as part of the update bundle, which is behind the support entitlement. An estate past end of support may no longer have access to that guidance, which is a good reason to change nothing without a clear need.
A replacement arriving at an unexpected level may need a sequence to bring the machine into agreement. We state the level of what we ship so that can be planned before the maintenance window rather than discovered inside it.

Firmware Components Depend on Each Other

A server is not one firmware but several: the management controller, the system firmware, and the firmware on adapters and drives. They are interdependent, and the vendor defines an order in which they may be updated. That order exists because each step assumes the state left by the previous one.

A Wrong Sequence Can Cost Remote Access

The mild outcome is a component at a level the rest of the machine does not expect, behaving inconsistently. The serious one is the management controller and system firmware disagreeing far enough that out-of-band access is lost — which on a machine nobody can reach physically converts a maintenance task into a site visit, or worse.

The Guidance Sits Behind the Entitlement

The supported sequence is published as part of the update bundle, which is distributed through support. An estate past end of support may no longer be able to obtain it, which is a strong argument for changing nothing without a specific, stated need — the sequence you would follow is the thing you no longer have.

Which Is Why We State the Level

A replacement arriving at an unexpected level may require a sequence to bring the machine into agreement, and that is a decision to make before a maintenance window rather than inside one. ICD records the level of each unit against the order across ThinkSystem and System x generations past vendor support, shipped to Japan in 4 to 7 days and covered for one to three years.
