Lenovo ThinkAgile SXM Updates Repository
March 2022 ThinkAgile SXM update release (SXMBR2203)

Important: The OEM Extension Package in this Best Recipe includes functionality to perform automated firmware updating on all scale unit nodes. Do not attempt to update to this OEM Extension Package until LXCA has been prepared to perform system firmware updates. Refer to the Configure XClarity Administrator for a specific Best Recipe topic in the ThinkAgile SXM Information Center for details on how to prepare LXCA.

Important: While updating scale unit nodes to this Best Recipe, if LXCA shows that the Solid State Disk Drive Firmware update task has "Stopped With Error" you can safely ignore this message. This false failure message is due to a known timing issue that is corrected by the firmware in this Best Recipe and should not occur in the future. For the same reason, scale unit nodes might show "Not Compliant" immediately after the update completes, but this should resolve on its own within 10-15 minutes.
