I would like to do ML upgrade on one of my (IBM,9133-55A)Power 5+
system.

Current OS Level : 5300-04-03
Current Firmware Level : SF240_219

and i would like to update to latest ML ie 5300-08

Can anyone please help me in knowing whether the current firmware is
suitable for doing latest ML update(5300-08) or do i need to update
the latest firware (SF240-338)before doing ML upgrade?
FYI:
  From 5300-04 to 5300-08 is an TL update ( technolgy update )
  From 5300-04-03 to 5300-04-09 would an SP update ( Service pack)

In case a firmware update is needed by an TL update it should be
noted . Eitherway you can check

http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/set2/firmware/gjsn

as an addition have a look to:

http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/set2/flrt/home
(fix level recommendation tool)



for firmware updates to your platform.

A quick look even mention that you have to have a certain TL level for
an microcode update.
