Step 21. Restart the server. The system begins the power-on self-test (POST).
Step 22. If these recovery efforts fail, contact your Lenovo service representative for support.
In-band automated boot recovery method
Use this information to recover the server firmware and restore the server operation to the primary bank.
Note:
Use this method if the BOARD LED is lit and there is a log entry or
Booting Backup Image
is displayed
on the firmware splash screen; otherwise, use the in-band manual recovery method.
Step 1.
Boot the server to an operating system that is supported by the firmware update package that
you downloaded.
Step 2.
Perform the firmware update by following the instructions that are in the firmware update package
readme file.
Step 3.
Restart the server.
Step 4.
At the firmware splash screen, press F3 when prompted to restore to the primary bank. The
server boots from the primary bank.
Out-of-band method
Use this information to recover the server firmware and restore the server operation to the primary bank.
See the IMM2.1 documentation (
Integrated Management Module II User’s Guide
) at
Automated boot recovery (ABR)
While the server is starting, if the integrated management module II detects problems with the server
firmware in the primary bank, the server automatically switches to the backup firmware bank and gives you
the opportunity to recover the firmware in the primary bank.
For instructions for recovering the UEFI firmware, see “Recovering the server firmware (UEFI update failure)”
on page 81. After you have recovered the firmware in the primary bank, complete the following steps:
Step 1.
Restart the server.
Step 2.
When the prompt
Press F3 to restore to primary
is displayed, press F3 to start the server from
the primary bank.
Nx-boot failure
Configuration changes, such as added devices or adapter firmware updates, and firmware or application
code problems can cause the server to fail POST (the power-on self-test).
If this occurs, the server responds in either of the following ways:
• The server restarts automatically and attempts POST again.
• The server stops responding, and you must manually restart the server for the server to attempt POST
again.
After a specified number of consecutive attempts (automatic or manual), the Nx-boot failure feature causes
the server to revert to the default UEFI configuration and start the Setup Utility so that you can make the
necessary corrections to the configuration and restart the server. If the server is unable to successfully
complete POST with the default configuration, there might be a problem with the system board.
