Make sure your HMC can support 7.7
If you have a desktop HMC it has to be a C05 or greater (I believe that is
the number which is in my head). If it is one of the old C02 or C03 you
can't upgrade that far.

PTFs. do you know of any issues jumping from 7.3.5 to 7.7?
No, i've upgraded 4 HMCs (all CR4s) in the past weeks, and all of them
went without a single hitch. I don't have very complicated
environments, though. No VIOS, multipathing, no 595's.
