IBM UEFI Flash Update v1.40 - IBM Flex System Compute Node x220

Download Description

• New IBM xSeries firmware and device driver file naming convention

Change history

Version 1.40 - BuildID: KSE136A

Problem(s) Fixed:

• Addressed a problem where more than four Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) device option ROMs could be loaded even though legacy BIOS code will only support the first 4 devices
• Updated high Memory Mapped Input/Output (MMIO) base address to allow use of this memory in VMWare systems

Enhancements:

• Added support for Intel?Xeon?Processor E5-2600 v2 product family
• Added support for Tivoli Key Lifecycle Manager (TKLM)

Limitations:

• When flashing UEFI from version 1.20 or later down to version 1.1x or lower, a "Boot Configuration Error" message will be logged into the UEFI error log. This error does has no impact on the system configuration or operation. No errors are logged when flashing from an earlier version to version 1.20.

Dependencies:

• The IMM firmware must be at BUILDID: 1AOO40E Version: 2.00 (ibm_fw_imm2_1aoo40e-2.00_anyos_noarch) or higher prior to installing UEFI version 1.20. If the IMM level is lower, the UEFI update module will be rejected as invalid because of additional security features features implemented in this release.
