Great.... this would invalidate all older machines with ILOM2/3
server processors (and also iRMC on Fujitsu servers), the remote
console and storage apps require 32bit, as these are downloaded
from the server (proprietary code, of course).

So have an eye your Java 6/7 and lock it in a safe location....
