Intel®Server Board S1200BT TPS Jumper Blocks 8.2 Integrated BMC Force Update Procedure (Only for The Intel® Server Board S1200BTL) When performing the standard Integrated BMC firmware update procedure, the update utility places the Integrated BMC into an update mode, allowing the firmware to load safely onto the flash device. In the unlikely event the Integrated BMC firmware update process fails due to the Integrated BMC not being in the proper update state, the server board provides an Integrated BMC Force Update jumper (J4A2), which forces the Integrated BMC into the proper update state. The following procedure should be completed in the event the standard Integrated BMC firmware update process fails. 1. Power down and remove the AC power cord. 2. Open the server chassis. For instructions, see your server chassis documentation. 3. Move jumper from the default operating position (covering pins 1 and 2) to the enabled position (covering pins 2 and 3). 4. Close the server chassis. 5. Reconnect the AC cord and power up the server. 6. Perform the Integrated BMC firmware update procedure as documented in the README.TXT file that is included in the given Integrated BMC firmware update package. After successful completion of the firmware update process, the firmware update utility may generate an error stating that the Integrated BMC is still in update mode. 7. Power down and remove the AC power cord. 8. Open the server chassis. 9. Move jumper from the enabled position (covering pins 2 and 3) to the disabled position (covering pins 1 and 2). 10. Close the server chassis. 11. Reconnect the AC cord and power up the server. Note: Normal Integrated BMC functionality is disabled with the Force Integrated BMC Update jumper set to the enabled position. The server should never be run with the Integrated BMC Force Update jumper set in this position. This jumper setting should only be used when the standard firmware update process fails. This jumper should remain in the default/disabled position when the server is running normally. 8.3 ME Force Update Jumper When performing the standard ME force update procedure, the update utility places the ME into an update mode, allowing the ME to load safely onto the flash device. In the unlikely event ME firmware update process fails due to ME not being in the proper update state, the server board provides an Integrated BMC Force Update jumper, which forces the ME into the proper update state. The following procedure should be completed in the event the standard ME firmware update process fails. Revision 1.0 107 Intel order number G13326-003

Integrated BMC Force Update Procedure (Only for The Intel
®
Server Board S1200BTL)
When performing the standard Integrated BMC firmware update procedure, the update utility
places the Integrated BMC into an update mode, allowing the firmware to load safely onto the
flash device. In the unlikely event the Integrated BMC firmware update process fails due to the
Integrated BMC not being in the proper update state, the server board provides an Integrated
BMC Force Update jumper (J4A2), which forces the Integrated BMC into the proper update
state. The following procedure should be completed in the event the standard Integrated BMC
firmware update process fails.
1.
Power down and remove the AC power cord.
2.
Open the server chassis. For instructions, see your server chassis documentation.
3.
Move jumper from the default operating position (covering pins 1 and 2) to the enabled
position (covering pins 2 and 3).
4. Close the server chassis.
5.
Reconnect the AC cord and power up the server.
6.
Perform the Integrated BMC firmware update procedure as documented in the
README.TXT file that is included in the given Integrated BMC firmware update
package. After successful completion of the firmware update process, the firmware
update utility may generate an error stating that the Integrated BMC is still in
update mode.
7.
Power down and remove the AC power cord.
8. Open the server chassis.
9.
Move jumper from the enabled position (covering pins 2 and 3) to the disabled position
(covering pins 1 and 2).
10. Close the server chassis.
11. Reconnect the AC cord and power up the server.
Note:
Normal Integrated BMC functionality is disabled with the Force Integrated BMC Update
jumper set to the enabled position. The server should never be run with the Integrated BMC
Force Update jumper set in this position. This jumper setting should only be used when the
standard firmware update process fails. This jumper should remain in the default/disabled
position when the server is running normally.
8.3
ME Force Update Jumper
When performing the standard ME force update procedure, the update utility places the ME into
an update mode, allowing the ME to load safely onto the flash device. In the unlikely event ME
firmware update process fails due to ME not being in the proper update state, the server board
provides an Integrated BMC Force Update jumper, which forces the ME into the proper update
state. The following procedure should be completed in the event the standard ME firmware
update process fails.
