Move cursor to selection, then press 'Enter'. Validate and Update System Firmware Validate System Firmware Commit the Temporary Image 802810 F1=Help F10=Exit F3=Previous Menu If the system was booted using the permanent image instead of the temporary image (as shown in the preceding example), the screen example would show: The system is currently booted from the permanent firmware image. and the last selection option is changed to: Reject the Temporary Image Using the command-line interface The IBM BladeCenter management-module command-line interface provides direct access to BladeCenter management functions as an alternative to using the BladeCenter management-module Web interface. Through the command-line interface, you can issue commands to control the power and configuration of the blade server and other components in the BladeCenter unit. The command-line interface also provides access to the text-console command prompt for each blade server through an SOL connection. This enables the blade servers to be managed from a remote location. For information and instructions, see the BladeCenter and BladeCenter T Management Module Command-Line Interface Reference Guide. Using the simple network management protocol (SNMP) In addition to the management-module command-line interface, you can use the simple network management protocol (SNMP) to perform configuration procedures. SNMP commands are described in the BladeCenter and BladeCenter T Management Module Command-Line Interface Reference Guide. For additional information about SNMP requirements, features, functions, and variables, see the documentation that comes with the Ethernet switch module that you are using; for example: v IBM 4-Port Gb Ethernet Switch Module for BladeCenter Installation and User's Guide v Nortel Networks Layer 2-7 GbE Switch Module for IBM BladeCenter Installation Guide 44 BladeCenter JS20 Type 8842: Installation and User's Guide

If
the

using
the
permanent

instead
of
the
temporary

(as
shown
in
the

the

Using
the
command-line
interface
The
IBM
BladeCenter
management-module
command-line
interface
provides
direct
access
to
BladeCenter
management
functions
as
an
alternative
to
using
the
BladeCenter
management-module
Web
interface.
Through
the
command-line
interface,
you
can
issue
commands
to
control
the
power
and
configuration
of
the
blade
server
and
other
components
in
the
BladeCenter
unit.
The
command-line
interface
also
provides
access
to
the
text-console
command
prompt
for
each
blade
server
through
an
SOL
connection.
This
enables
the
blade
servers
to
be
managed
from
a
remote
location.
For
information
and
instructions,
see
the
BladeCenter
and
BladeCenter
T
Management
Module
Command-Line
Interface
Reference
Guide
.
Using
the
simple
network
management
protocol
(SNMP)
In
addition
to
the
management-module
command-line
interface,
you
can
use
the
simple
network
management
protocol
(SNMP)
to
perform
configuration
procedures.
SNMP
commands
are
described
in
the
BladeCenter
and
BladeCenter
T
Management
Module
Command-Line
Interface
Reference
Guide
.
For
additional
information
about
SNMP
requirements,
features,
functions,
and
variables,
see

documentation
that
comes
with
the
Ethernet
switch

that
you
are
