Abstract
Methods and systems for managing operation of a data processing system are disclosed. Channel cards of the data processing system may be non-standard channel cards that perform non-standard functions. If a channel card is a non-standard channel card, it may be determined whether to convert the non-standard channel card to a standard channel card. To do so, user input may be obtained from a user of the data processing system. If the non-standard channel card is to be converted to the standard channel card, a certificate for firmware for the standard channel card may be obtained. Using the certificate, firmware for the non-standard channel card may be replaced with the firmware for the standard channel card thereby converting the non-standard channel card to a converted channel card. The converted channel card may perform standard functions for a class of the channel card and may not perform the non-standard functions.
