Update stand-alone enterprise baseboard management controller (eBMC) firmware through IBM AIX and Linux

IBM Power servers support firmware updates directly from the operating system on stand-alone eBMC (enterprise Baseboard Management Controller) systems, allowing users to update system firmware without a Hardware Management Console (HMC). This method is especially effective for IBM Power10 and IBM Power11 scale-out servers running with default operating system such as IBM AIX, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES). This tutorial explains the prerequisites, validation checks, and the step-by-step procedure required to safely perform firmware updates from IBM AIX and Linux operating systems.
