Recovering from a BIOS update failure:
If power to the server is interrupted while BIOS code is being updated, the server might not restart correctly or might not display video.
If this happens, use the procedure in this section to recover the BIOS code.
To complete the procedures in this section, you must make the following
preparations:
Download the BIOS code image to create the POST/BIOS recovery diskette, CD,
or DVD from http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/.
https://www-947.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/docdisplay?lndocid=migr-5073476#DOCPRODUCTS
To create and use a diskette, you must attach an optional external USB diskette
drive to the server. To enable the USB diskette drive, complete the following
steps:
- Enable the USB Support option in the Devices and I/O Ports menu in the
Configuration/Setup Utility program. - Set your removable media device as the first startup device.
- Select the removable media device that you want to boot from and move it to
the top of the list.
To recover the BIOS code, complete the following steps:
1.) Turn off the server and all attached devices; then, disconnect all power cords and external cables.
2.) Locate the boot block recovery jumper (JP6) on the system board and remove any adapters that impede access to the jumper
3.) Move the boot block recovery jumper to pins 2 and
4.) Insert the update diskette, CD, or DVD into the diskette, CD, or DVD drive
5.) Turn on the server and the monitor.
After the update session is completed, remove the diskette, CD, or DVD from
the drive and turn off the server
6.) Disconnect all power cords and external cables
7.) Return the boot block recovery jumper to pins 1 and 2.
8.) Reconnect the external cables and power cords; then, turn on the attached
devices and turn on the server
Thank you..
