    Instructions for applying the latest AIX fixes should be available on the
    fix download site; perhaps in a README file. Also check the AIX
    Installation Guide. Most people tend to stick to Maintenance Level packages
    rather than the very latest fixes.

    There are tools available which will check for firmware/microcode levels on
    all devices and tell you what needs to be updated. I've used Inventory
    Scout a couple of times and it seemed quite simple.
