Important: Some cluster solutions require specific
code levels or coordinated code updates. If the device is part of
a cluster solution, verify that the latest level of code is supported
for the cluster solution before you update the code.
If the
server firmware has become corrupted, such as from a power failure
during an update, you can recover the server firmware in the following
ways:
- In-band method: Recover server firmware, using either the
boot block jumper (Automated Boot Recovery) or a server firmware update
package.
- Out-of-band method: Use the IMM2.1 Web interface to update the firmware and the latest server
firmware update package.
Note: You can obtain a server-firmware update package
through one of the following ways:
The flash memory of the server consists of a primary bank
and a backup bank. You must maintain a bootable UEFI firmware image
in the backup bank. If the server firmware in the primary bank becomes
corrupted, you can manually boot the backup bank with the UEFI boot backup jumper (JP16). In the case of image corruption, this will occur automatically
with the Automated Boot Recovery function.
