Could you add a new module for firmware update?

[NicolaeCh]

SUMMARY

It will be nice to have a module to manage firmware update - you can skip the process of download upgrade test and firmware from the IBM website, but implement this steps: :

• Upload both files to IBM storage (from a local repo)
• Run upgrade test: svctask applysoftware -file IBM2145_INSTALL_upgradetest_X.X
• Upgrade firmware: svctask applysoftware -file new_firmware_file
• Check status: lsupdate
