Enhancements and fixes

• POWER6 isolates support was added for a BPA reported failure in Service Focal Point.
• Updates were made to steps that must be taken for an HMC to communicate with the managed system if an additional HMC was connected to a IBM POWER 570 and 595 system.
• Text and graphic updates were made to Concurrent Maintenance Node Add and Repair procedures for IBM POWER 570 systems.
• Text and location code graphic updates were made to the GX card procedures for the IBM POWER 575 and 595 systems.
• Graphic modifications were made to various PU Book panels for the IBM POWER 575 and 595 systems.
• 9409-M50 is now supported in HMC R&V interfaces. Also, serviceable events containing IBM POWER 550 FRUs can now be serviced.
• Text updates were made to include the correct number of tools needed to service the IBM POWER 575 and 595 PU Book.
• Various text and graphic updates were made in the IBM POWER 575 and 595 PU Book procedure.
• Updates were made to Problem Analysis error logging information.
• Corrected a problem where the CEC state on the HMC doesn't update to show a "No Connection" state after the HMC loses network connection to the CEC.
• Enhanced installios to use the netmask when installing the partition.
• Corrected a problem where IO Adapters are not displayed in Partition Properties dialog in non-English locales.
• Partition Details table on Virtual Network Management Panel was always showing empty.
• Bridge adapters were not displayed on Virtual Network Management Panel.
• Fixed an issue where the user was unable to delete a virtual switch even though the GUI appeared to not show it associated to any Ethernet adapters in any profiles because the Virtual Adapter - Ethernet GUI panel always displayed the default VSwitch instead of the actual vswitch associated.
• User profiles data replication changes:
• For taskrole, all the task roles that exist in the Master HMC is replicated to the slave HMC. If the slave HMC has an existing taskrole with the same name as that of the taskrole that comes from the master HMC, then the taskrole from the master HMC will overwrite the taskrole that exists in the slave HMC. Apart from the replicated task roles, all other task roles that existed in the slave HMC prior to the replication will be deleted.
• For resource roles, all the resource roles that exist in the Master HMC is replicated to the slave HMC. If the slave HMC has an existing resource role with the same name as that of the resource role that comes from the master HMC, the resources of the Master resource role will be merged with the resources of the slave resource role. The resources roles that existed in the slave HMC prior to the replication will NOT be deleted.
• For users, all the users that exist in the Master HMC are replicated to the slave HMC. If the slave HMC has an existing user with the same name as that of the user that comes from the master HMC, then the user from the master HMC will overwrite the user that exists in the slave HMC. Apart from the replicated users, all other users that existed in the slave HMC prior to the replication will be deleted.
• When a HEA card is changed, all the LHEA (references) related to that also get changed. Currently while activating or modifying a profile, user gets a warning message saying Hardware has been changed. After the current warning, user should also get a message giving a choice "Remove earlier references" or "keep old references" which was not happening. Now the user has the choice to cleanup all references to the HEA logical ports and re-configure the logical ports in the profile.
• Fixed a problem where an internal error occurred with error message ACT01503 due to a null pointer exception thrown on the DLPAR Add of the Virtual Ethernet Adapter panel from GUI.
• Fixed a problem where deleting a vswitch which is not related to any profile or lpar causes the Virtual Ethernet Adapters associated with other vswitches to be deleted from their lpar profiles. They would re-appear on the next reboot of the HMC..
• The system's shared processor pool configuration was not getting cleared when the user selects the "Initialize" task under "Manage Partition Data". With this fix all the pools max capacity and reserve proc units are set to zero.
