[. . . ] IBM iTM on a Power Blade Read-me First Vess Natchev Cloud | Virtualization | Power Systems IBM Rochester, MN vess@us. ibm. com July 14th, 2010 1 This "read-me first" document provides detailed instructions on using IBM i on a Power blade. It covers prerequisites, supported configurations, preparation for install, hardware and software install, firmware updates and post-install tasks such as backups. The document also contains links to many additional information sources. Table of Contents 1. Installing and configuring an Intelligent Copper Pass-through Module (ICPM) 4. [. . . ] IBM i PTFs can also be obtained from IBM Fix Central: http://www-912. ibm. com/eserver/support/fixes/. 5. 2. Install VIOS The instructions in this section explain how to install VIOS on the Power blade. However, you should use the instructions in sub-sections 5. 2. 1, 5. 2. 2 and 5. 2. 3 to open a VIOS console and Power on the blade. After approximately 5 minutes, if a VIOS login prompt appears on the console, the install was performed by IBM. If VIOS was not pre-installed, proceed with the instructions immediately below. The JS12 provides the option for two integrated SAS drives on the blade. It is recommended to order both integrated drives on the JS12, install VIOS on the first SAS drive and mirror the entire install to the second drive. In the case of using the JS12 in the BladeCenter S, this approach allows more of the drives in the chassis to be assigned to IBM i. If using the JS22 in the BladeCenter H, it is recommended to install VIOS on LUNs on the SAN and use two MSIMs and two Fibre Channel I/O modules for redundancy. After the Power blade is installed in the BladeCenter (see section 3), only its Service Processor (SP) is powered on. It communicates with the AMM over an internal management network in the BladeCenter. The AMM also provides an ASCII console to the first partition on the Power blade (VIOS) using a Serial-over-LAN (SOL) connection. Note that an Ethernet switch module is required in I/O bay 1 or 2 for SOL functionality. If the BladeCenter is using a Copper Passthrough Module (CPM) instead, SOL would not work. Prerequisites in the AMM · · Log into the AMM browser interface with a user profile with supervisor authority, then click on Serial Over LAN under Blade Tasks Verify SOL is enabled for the blade you are going to install VIOS on, or enable it 37 VIOS can be installed from a DVD image or from a Network Installation Manager (NIM) server. Installing from NIM requires that a supported VIOS image is configured for this blade client on the NIM server; that configuration is beyond the scope of this document. If you are going to install VIOS from DVD, you must assign the media tray in the BladeCenter to the new Power blade. You can either press the MT button on the front of the blade itself or use the AMM browser interface: · · · · · Click on Remote Control under Blade Tasks Click the Start Remote Control button Select the Power blade you want to install in the drop-down menu labeled Media Tray Close the Remote Control web interface. Opening a console for VIOS · · · · To open a console for the VIOS install, start a Telnet session to the AMM Log in with the same user profile as for the browser interface Type env -T blade[x] and press Enter, where x is your blade slot number in the BladeCenter. The console will appear inactive until the blade is Powered on and Partition Firmware (PFW) on it starts Note that the SOL console for VIOS does not need to be restarted if the VIOS partition is rebooted. However, the console will time out and disconnect after 5 minutes of inactivity. In addition to the Serial-over-LAN (SOL) console option for VIOS, the Remote Control function of the AMM discussed in the previous section can also provide a console for VIOS.
