System specs here -> https://support.lenovo.com/ca/en/solutions/pd027573 Used latest Unibeast and MBeast 9.1. Overall. working very well with two outstanding issues. USB 3.0 and Black screen after sleep. I'll post a separate thread re the sleep issue. USB 3.0 devices do not work if I boot off the Hard drive. They seem to work fine for USB2.0 mode. However, USB3.0 devices DO work if boot clover from the Unibeast USB stick first and then select the HDD with Sierra on it. This proves OSX will work with this controller.. but I don't have the right MB or other clover settings when booting from the HDD natively. Looking at a System report when booting from the Clover USB and I see the USB3.0 as a ADATA HV620, Details below. What do I need to add to my system so this works when booting from the HDD natively. ? Thanks in advance.

Lenovo ThinkSystem servers include a rich portfolio of firmware and driver update tools. Most of these tools include an easy-to-use graphical user interface to perform updates interactively, as well as utilities that provide methods to acquire and apply updates in complex scenarios.
This guide introduces the tools provided with Lenovo ThinkSystem servers and is especially useful if you are managing a few servers interactively and have no operational constraints, such as Internet access.
The reader should have basic skills such as booting the server from a specific device, setting up the management controller for remote control access, running a graphical program as a privileged user in Windows or Linux, and running a command line utility with parameters.
Change History
Changes in the February 8 update:
Introduction
Firmware is essential to the operation of a server. It controls every single hardware component found in the server; from the onboard chipset, to the built-in modules, to the add-on adapters and drives, and all the way to the entire system, including the self-contained management controller.
Updating the firmware and drivers on a regular schedule is the recommended best practice for several reasons:
Lenovo has the richest portfolio of firmware and drivers update tools in the industry. These tools provide easy-to-use graphical utilities to perform updates interactively. They also provide a complete set of utilities to meet more complex scenarios to acquire and apply updates. The utilities support:
This guide provides introductory instruction for users who are new to Lenovo ThinkSystem products. If you are managing a few servers interactively and have no operational constraints, such as Internet access, this is the place to start. This guide will present three simple interactive tools, which are part of the XClarity Essentials toolset:
A subsequent guide will provide advanced level instruction to users managing a complex mix of servers and operating systems. The advanced guide will describe how to update firmware in a distributed environment while minimizing downtime to your workload.
Tip: While this guide is focused on Lenovo ThinkSystem servers, the provided recommendations and instructions apply to Lenovo System x M5 or X6 generation servers with very minor variations.
The recommendations for updates
Lenovo recommends that you update the entire system to the latest UpdateXpress System Pack (UXSP) level before you deploy the server into a production environment. This includes system firmware, all adapter and hard-drive firmware, and the corresponding device drivers in the operating system.
Tip: Install all the hardware components (modules, adapters, and drives) and power on the system at least once before updating the entire system, so that everything will be activated, detected, and updated together.
If you install or upgrade hardware components later, make sure that you perform a full system update to ensure that the system can handle the new hardware, and that the newly installed components have the proper firmware and drivers.
Make sure that you visit the Lenovo Support web site regularly, or that you subscribe to product notifications to be informed of critical updates for your devices. Then, plan your maintenance schedule accordingly.
Why should I update firmware and drivers?
Every Lenovo server that is shipped to a customer contains a set of firmware that has been comprehensively tested together to provide optimal performance. Due to a variety of factors, firmware for one or more components may need to be updated. Firmware updates to individual components may be planned or unplanned, e.g. a fix to a problem not identified previously. To ensure continued optimal performance, the firmware updates are integrated and thoroughly re-tested together. The updated firmware and drivers are available on the Lenovo Support web site.
While it is safe to receive a new server, install a certified operating system, and put the server into production, Lenovo recommends that you update the server to the latest firmware and driver pack before putting the server into production.
There are several reasons for updating firmware and drivers:
Lenovo actively works with the major software partners to certify our servers for their software, and vice-versa. We also provide our device drivers to be included in their official software release, such as Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and VMware ESXi. However, device drivers that are shipped in the official OS release might be out of date or might not support the complete set of features and functions advertised by Lenovo. Therefore, the drivers need to be refreshed at the same time as the firmware.
UpdateXpress System Pack
UpdateXpress System Pack (UXSP) is a bundle of firmware and device drivers that are validated together as a whole for compatibility and stability across all of the supported system models, and that are released on a predefined schedule (typically, 3 times a year).
The UXSP contains additional metadata for the Lenovo tools to optimize sequencing and minimize reboots while applying the updates. Unless explicitly mentioned, this guide always recommends that you use the UXSP for updates, not the individual packages.
Update process flow
Use the following flow chart to determine the best tool to be used when updating the firmware and device drivers, based on your environment.
![]() Figure 1. Update process flow (click for a larger version) Tools for updating firmware and OS drivers
This introductory guide is focused on the following tools:
XClarity Essentials Bootable Media Creator
Bootable Media Creator (BoMC) is ideal for pre-operating-system firmware updates and for updates to “desktop-less” operating systems, such as VMware ESXi, Windows Server Core, or Nano:
We describe BoMC in the Bootable Media Creator section below.
XClarity Essentials UpdateXpress
UpdateXpress is ideal for post-OS update, and periodic refresh of firmware and OS drivers:
We describe UpdateXpress in the UpdateXpress section below.
XClarity Essentials OneCLI
OneCLI is a command-line utility that is ideal for a non-GUI environment:
We describe OneCLI in the OneCLI section below.
Other tools can be used to update firmware, but they are not in the scope of this guide. For example, users can always update device drivers through the operating system. Windows Server and VMware have their own way to update drivers individually and on a large scale.
Additional Lenovo tools that can be used to update firmware include:
Bootable Media Creator
Bootable Media Creator (BoMC) is used for pre-operating-system firmware updates and for updates to “desktop-less” operating systems, such as VMware ESXi, Windows Server Core, or Nano
BoMC runs in any Windows or Linux system (for example a Windows 10 laptop), and it requires Internet access to acquire firmware online.
Download BoMC from the Lenovo support site:
https://datacentersupport.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/lnvo-bomc
This tool runs on your Windows computer or Linux-based workstations, to acquire the UXSP online based on your selected system model(s). It creates an image that includes a bootable operating system, the update tool, and all the firmware files applicable to the selected system model(s). It can write the image directly to a DVD or USB drive that you can carry to the target server and boot.
Alternatively, if you are working remotely from the target server, the ISO image that it creates can be remotely mounted to the management controller as a virtual DVD, if the function is available on your server. Then you can boot the server from the mount and apply the updates.
Remote mounting of ISO images: Use of remote ISO files on ThinkSystem servers requires XClarity Controller Advanced, which may be an optional upgrade for your server, depending on your server model and configuration.
To use BoMC, do the following:
After the image is created or written to a drive, you can boot from it on the target server(s). The server does the following: Dynasty warriors 9 pc download.
Upon confirmation or timeout, the tool automatically applies the updates and reboots the system. The update process runs unattended. However, you can also intervene manually after the comparison result is displayed, if you want to.
If the server to be updated has the same or newer firmware than what is in the image, the update process automatically skips those items, unless you intervene and select an item manually. Likewise, If you boot the image on a server model that is different from the server for which the image was create, the tool skips the update process and indicates that there is nothing to update.
If you just bought a batch of servers of the same or various models, you can create one image for all of them and use it among those servers. You can also burn the image onto several DVDs or several USB keys to update them all at the same time. If you have similar servers across a number of remote branch offices, you can also send the image to the remote branch office. You can get someone in the remote branch office to burn a DVD, and then boot the server to update it locally.
BoMC doesn't update drivers: The image created by BoMC does not update the device drivers for the operating system. You will need use the methods provided by the operating system to update the device drivers, as needed.
For customers who are deploying VMware ESXi, Lenovo provides Lenovo’s-VMware Certified-Custom ESXi Images, and Lenovo strongly recommends that customers use these images. They include the latest Lenovo-qualified I/O drivers and, when your system is updated with the BoMC process, match entries on VMware’s Hardware Combability List. Lenovo’s VMware ESXi Custom Images can be used for initial ESXi deployments or for updates/upgrades to existing deployments. Go to https://vmware.lenovo.com/content/custom_iso/ for additional details.
UpdateXpress
UpdateXpress is used to apply a firmware/driver update within the target server operating system, and to periodically refresh of firmware and drivers.
UpdateXpress runs on supported versions of Windows Server, RHEL and SLES. It requires Internet access to acquire firmware and drivers online.
Download UpdateXpress from the Lenovo support site:
https://datacentersupport.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/lnvo-xpress
This tool runs in the target server’s operating system desktop session as Administrator or as root. It automatically detects the hardware inventory, firmware version, and operating system. It can acquire a UXSP online, and then update the firmware and device drivers. It also implements an update sequence to minimize reboots; the server is rebooted one time after all updates have been applied.
Tip: If your server does not have an Internet connection, you can set up your own repository, as described in the Build your own update repository section.
To use UpdateXpress, do the following:
This is the easiest tool for updating the entire system if your environment has no constraint on Internet access or running the management tool. This tool does not need to be installed, nor does it create any permanent daemon or background service at runtime. Therefore, you can run it from a temporary folder then delete it at the end.
OneCLI
OneCLI is used to apply firmware/driver updates within the operating system for a target server, and to periodically refresh of firmware and drivers.
OneCLI runs on supported versions of Windows Server, RHEL and SLES. It requires Internet access to acquire the UXSP packages online.
Download OneCLI from the Lenovo support site:
https://datacentersupport.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/lnvo-tcli
This tool runs in Windows Command Prompt as Administrator, or in Linux terminal as root. It acquires the UXSP packages online, and then updates the firmware and device drivers. It also implements an update sequence to minimize reboots; the server is rebooted one time after all updates have been applied.
Tip: If your server does not have an Internet connection, you can set up your own repository, as described in the Build your own update repository section.
To use OneCLI if the target server is connected to the Internet:
Firmware and driver updates are applied in a sequence that minimizes the number of reboots. Changes will be effective after the user reboot the server.
Build your own update repository
If the target server is not connected to the Internet, you can run UpdateXpress or OneCLI on an Internet-connected workstation to acquire the firmware packages to build your own repository. Then you can copy the folder to the target servers using a USB drive or over the network. Finally, you can run UpdateXpress or OneCLI on the target servers by pointing to that folder.

Changes will be effective after you reboot the server.
Summary
As you try out the tools described in this guide, you will find that they have more functions than what was described here, and you are encouraged to try them out thoroughly. You will notice too that BoMC and UpdateXpress fully support the entire Lenovo System x M5 and X6 family of servers. So do not hesitate to apply these best practices to your existing servers as well.
As you get more comfortable with updating the entire system firmware using these tools, and you start to apply the process to more servers, you will want to look for ways to increase productivity, minimize downtime, and schedule a specific reboot time after an update. The advanced guide will show you how to accomplish these procedures.
