Am trying to upgrade an HMC (3710-C04) from V5.1.2 to V6.1.3 .it appears to
be a valid upgrade path in the documentation; all license code updates are
installed; the server firmware is at SF235_214; the os on the 9406-520 is at
V5R3; internal modem has been removed;.but after a successful Save Upgrade
Data and a reboot of the server with V6.1.2 in the drive..all we get is back
to the hmc signon screen - never see the install/backup/restore wizard
screen .(I am following ibm doc number 449632639 and have tried both
home-made and ibm media ).all suggestions welcome
