From my memory, there were 2 or 3 major levels of 9221 microcode that was 
released and each major release had updates (MCLs).  The problem is that even 
if you had a could find the base 9221 microcode that would work with a system, 
the microcode for a specific system includes files that are custom for each 
system.  These are the specific configuration files that match the system 
serial number, hardware configuration, etc., and they would have to be hand 
generated at this point unless you can find the code on the actual support 
processor's hard drive and/or on a backup specific to that system.    

Not only should you guard a working backup tape, but if possible, consider 
creating additional backup tapes as it would be very difficult to try to 
recreate a working version of a 9221's microcode at this point.
