SolutionHi,
Please find the below steps:
1. Putty(SSH) to the IMM(Integrated Management Module) using the IMM IP address.
2. Type usbeth: if the output shows as enabled. No action is required.
3. If usbeth shows as disabled then we have to enable it. Please find the below steps to enable usbeth.
Type the command:
<usbeth –en enabled> and Hit enter. This will enable usbeth.
NOTE: After completing the upgrade DO NOT forget to disable usbeth.
To disable to usbeth type the command:
<usbeth –en disabled>
4. Mount the ISO. Try booting the server from the ISO. It should work now.
5. Once the server boots to the “Boot Devices Manager (F12 - one time boot menu)”. Hit the space bar to get into Legacy BIOS mode. Then scroll down to select CD/DVD and hit enter for the server to boot from the mounted firmware iso.
NOTE: We strongly recommend you to read the below interoperability before performing the upgrade. Ensure that the Firmware, vCenter, ESXi is supported by the OVC(OmniStack) version.

Re: Upgrading Firmware of Lenovo x3650 m5
Hello @Deepak_K
I will perform this later thank you.
Another question I am running a single node with no VM but has a backup data. if I shutdown the OVC and perform the firmware upgrade will the backup data will be affected/corrupted/deleted?

Hi Simon,
Powering Off the OVC and upgrading the Firmware will not affect the backup.
Thanks
