IBM BladeCenter HX5 User Manual

Note: Remember to record the directory location on the TFTP server where you
place the files; you will need that location to run the Expect type script.
2. Generate an Expect type script that will log in to the advanced management
module CLI, update the firmware for the blade servers, and restart the blade
servers when complete.
3. From a computer that is on the same TCP/IP subnet as the advanced
management module for the chassis in which the scalable blade complex is
installed, run the Expect type script.
Example of an Expect script
The following script illustrates how an Expect type script might be created to
update the firmware for both blade servers.
Important: IBM does not provide support for Expect scripts. For more information
about using Expect, see the Expect website at http://expect.sourceforge.net/. For
more information about using the advanced management module CLI, see the
BladeCenter Advanced Management Module Command-Line Interface Reference Guide at
