IBM Fix central firmware download
Hello, i'm a french IT student, not very fluent in English.

I'm trying to download firmware updates on IBM website but they asking a serial number of a server under warrenty or maintenance. But i have a personnel server for learning, training, etc... and its not under IBM warrenty or maintenance contract.

how i can get the updates ? beacause IBM AIX updates are free normally.

It is also stated in a little box, when you go to fix central, so what should we tell different here in the forum than what IBM writes.
