Ensure any external firewall allows https connection to new server IP 129.42.50.224. For a list of all required IP addresses and ports see the whitepaper "/ESA for HMC Connectivity Security for IBM POWER6, POWER7 and POWER8 Processor-Based Systems and IBM Storage Systems DS8000/" available at: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/esa/security.htm *Security Fixes* * Fixed multiple Java vulnerabilities: CVE-2015-0480, CVE-2015-0486, CVE-2015-0488, CVE-2015-0478, CVE-2015-0477, CVE-2015-1916 * Fixed httpd and openssl "Logjam" vulnerability:CVE-2015-4000 * Fixed glibc vulnerabilities: CVE-2013-7423, CVE-2015-1781 * Fixed multiple Unzip Heap Buffer Overflows, "Zero Day", Vulnerabilities: CVE-2014-8139, CVE-2014-8140, CVE-2014-8141, CVE-2014-9636 * Fixed a potential security issue with viosvrcmd *General fixes* * Fixed a problem where after an upgrade of dual HMCs, activating the first partition may cause the other HMC to incorrectly show a recovery state until the next rebuild. * Fixed an issue where the server will go to an incomplete state if a user creates a new virtual network with a name that conflicts with auto-generated network names. * Fixed an issue where login with a user profile that does not have an all resource role was slow. * Updated the code signing certificate for the vterm applet. * MH01528* 05/22/2015 *General Fixes* * Fixed an issue where logging stops after log rotation runs for syslog impacting system files in /var/log Back to top <#ibm-content> Installation Installation instructions for HMC Version 8 upgrades and corrective service can be found at these locations: Upgrading or restoring HMC Version 8 Installation methods for HMC Version 8 fixes Instructions and images for upgrading via a remote network install can be found here: HMC V8 network installation images and installation instructions Additional information Notes: 1. The Install Corrective Service task now allows you to install corrective service updates from the ISO image files of these updates. You can download these ISO image files for the HMC, and then use the ISO image file to install the corrective service update. You no longer need to burn CD-R or DVD-R media to use the ISO image file to install corrective service. 2. This image requires DVD -R media. 3. To install updates over the network, select the *.iso file on the "Select Service Package" panel of the Install Corrective Service task. The HMC application extracts the files needed to install the corrective service. If you are using USB flash media, copy the *.iso file to the flash media, and then select the file when prompted. 4. The *updhmc* command line command has also been modified to use the *.iso file. To use the command, follow the syntax in this example: updhmc -t s -h -f -u -i In all cases, the HMC application extracts the files needed to install the corrective service. Back to top <#ibm-content>
