VIOS Update #104

Open mshakeer03 opened 1 year ago

mshakeer03 commented 1 year ago

Upgrade/Update ioslevel on an IBM POWER VIO server

An ansible module to upgrade the VIO Server version

Using localised scripts, commands, mostly a manual process to perform the VIOS upgrade/update

While there is an ansible module available as part of this POWER_HMC collection to install VIOS, I don't find a module to be used to perform upgrade/update the existing VIO server, upgrade of the existing VIO servers is a more frequent requirement than installing fresh VIOs, Kindly look into this requirement to accomplish the VIOS upgrade using an ansible module.

Perhaps you could use the module nim_updateios ? => https://ibm.github.io/ansible-power-aix/modules/nim_updateios.html or the module updatesios => https://ibm.github.io/ansible-power-vios/modules/updateios.html
