xCAT version 2.7.5
P7-IH
Linux RHEL 6.2

I recently rflash'd to all my frames a new power code firmware level (118).  
Various xCAT commands (like rinv) do not report that 118 is the active level.  
They are showing a 2-revs-ago level (092) as the active level.  Although, if I 
dig down to a slightly lower level and run the lslic command from the HMC, it 
shows 118 as the active level.  I was told that this is a bug in xCAT, ie. xCAT 
does not report the correct active firmware level.

Unfortunately, because of this, when I try to rflash a new firmware out to my 
CECs, the rflash command fails with the following output:
   f01c03: New Managed System level for f01c03 is not compatible with current 
Power Subsystem level 02AP730_092 on frame01.
   Power Subsystem level 02AP730_116 or later is required.
The rflash is erroneously seeing the frame's power level as 092, rather than 
the correct 118, and thus is terminating because it doesn't see a frame power 
level of 116+.

How do I get around this?  How can I force rflash to do the CEC firmware update 
and not worry about the frame's firmware level?

Thanks for any help you can provide.
