rpm -ivh /data/public/kernel-3.10.0-693.5.2.el7.Avid.x86_64.rpm
4. Reboot your server.
5. Check the installed version by entering the following command:
uname -a
6. Check if /data/public is mounted after the reboot. If it is not properly mount it, use the following
command to fix it:

mount -a
Updating BIOS Version
To check the BIOS version:
1. Connect to your server using a terminal emulator, such as PuTTY. Check if the BIOS version is
older than version Phaev086 by entering the following command:
dmidecode | grep --colour=never "Version: Phaev"
2. If the displayed version is older than Phaev086 , upgrade it as described below.
To update BIOS:

/data/VS/bin/set_run -s all
n
This step is required after the OVS engine has been installed and you need to reinstall BIOS.

3. Decompress the PHAEV086_fixed.tgz file to the /PHAEV086/ folder:
tar -xvzf /data/public/PHAEV086_fixed.tgz -C /
4. In your IPMI Console, go to folder /PHAEV086/Linux/
InsydeH2OFFT_x86_LINUX64_100.00.08.10/:
cd /PHAEV086/Linux/InsydeH2OFFT_x86_LINUX64_100.00.08.10/
5. Add the following comment #!/bin/sh to the first line of the flash.sh script (without

./flash.sh
