    Two issues;
    1 The software was "installed". Upgrade was not chosen.
    2 Critical console data not backed up.

    Save upgrade data to local disk was performed, and Backup HMC to remote system via ftp, producing a large tgz files was also done.

    The install has finished and is low asking about Critical console data DVD, which is not upto date.

    If I choose to not use the CCD, will the HMC relearn the config based on the data stored in the two systems NVRAM? Better option to complete the upgrade?

    The CCD may have been stored on an FTP server.

    There are files named HMCBackup_20110510.125809.tgz , about 1.5 GB in size.

    Would that be the CCD or a full backup of the HMC?
