3. Insert the firmware update diskette or CD into the CD or DVD drive. 4. Turn on or restart the server. The server starts DOS from the diskette or CD and runs the necessary utilities. 5. If prompted with questions, type Y and press Enter. Using the force BMC update jumper If the normal firmware update procedure results in an inoperative BMC, change the position of the force BMC update jumper (J57 on the microprocessor board) to bypass the operational firmware image. Attention: Before changing any switch settings or moving any jumpers, turn off the server; then, disconnect all power cords and external cables. See the safety information beginning on page v. Do not change settings or move jumpers on any system-board switch or jumper blocks that are not shown in this document. The following illustration shows the location of the force BMC update, and boot recovery jumpers. 1 2 Force BMC update (J57) 3 4 1 2 1 2 Boot recovery (J17) 3 While the server is turned off, place a jumper over pins 1 and 2 on J57. Then, perform a firmware update. Turn off the server again and remove the jumper from pins 1 and 2. Note: Only use the force BMC update jumper if the normal firmware update procedure fails and the operational firmware image is corrupted. Use of the force BMC update jumper disables normal baseboard management controller operation. Using the management utility program Use the baseboard management controller management utility program to remotely manage and configure a server.
