Power8的update access key到期后,系统不停的提示到期。
1.有没办法停止提示,或者屏蔽提示?
2.如果要申请新的key是不是一定要设备在保的状态才能申请?
我第一次听说Power8 的UAK,才发现果然是个坑。详细介绍如下:
What is an "update access key"?
POWER8 (and later) servers include an “update access key” that is checked when system firmware updates are applied to the system. Update access keys include an expiration date. System firmware updates contain a release date. When attempting to apply system firmware updates, if the release date for the firmware updates has passed the expiration date for the update access key, the updates will not be processed. As update access keys expire, they need to be replaced using either the Hardware Management Console (HMC) or the Advanced Management Interface (ASMI) on the service processor.
简单说你没uak,就别升级了。我记得原来aix fix补丁是随意下载的。后来变成需要在保设备的序列号了,现在看来是还需要秘钥了。真厉害~
