To use the Boot Manager program, complete the following steps:
Step 1. Turn off the server.
Step 2. Restart the server.
Step 3. When the prompt
<F12> Select Boot Device
is displayed, press F12.
Step 4. Use the Up arrow and Down arrow keys to select an item from the menu and press Enter.
The next time the server starts, it returns to the startup sequence that is set in the Setup utility.
Starting the backup server firmware
The system board contains a backup copy area for the server firmware. This is a secondary copy of the
server firmware that you update only during the process of updating the server firmware. If the primary copy
of the server firmware becomes damaged, use this backup copy.
To force the server to start from the backup copy, turn off the server; then, place the UEFI boot backup
jumper (JP7) in the backup position (pins 2 and 3). See “System-board switches, jumpers, and buttons”
on page 29 for the location of the UEFI boot backup jumper (JP7).
Use the backup copy of the server firmware until the primary copy is restored. After the primary copy is
restored, turn off the server; then, move the UEFI boot backup jumper (JP7) back to the primary position
(pins 1 and 2).
The Update Xpress System Pack Installer
The Update Xpress System Pack Installer detects supported and installed device drivers and firmware in the
server and installs available updates.
For additional information and to download the Update Xpress System Pack Installer, go to the ToolsCenter
for System x and BladeCenter at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/toolsctr/v1r0/ and click
UpdateXpress System Pack Installer .
Using the integrated management module
The integrated management module (IMM) is a second generation of the functions that were formerly
provided by the baseboard management controller hardware. It combines service processor functions, video
controller, and remote presence function in a single chip.
The IMM supports the following basic systems-management features:
• Active Energy Manager.
• Alerts (in-band and out-of-band alerting, PET traps - IPMI style, SNMP, e-mail).
• Auto Boot Failure Recovery (ABR).
• Automatic microprocessor disable on failure and restart in a two-microprocessor configuration when one
microprocessor signals an internal error. When one of the microprocessors fail, the server will disable the
failing microprocessor and restart with the other microprocessor.
• Automatic Server Restart (ASR) when POST is not complete or the operating system hangs and the
operating system watchdog timer times-out. The IMM might be configured to watch for the operating
system watchdog timer and reboot the system after a timeout, if the ASR feature is enabled. Otherwise,
the IMM allows the administrator to generate a nonmaskable interrupt (NMI) by pressing an NMI button on
the light path diagnostics panel for an operating-system memory dump. ASR is supported by IPMI.
• A virtual media key, which enables remote presence support (remote video, remote keyboard/mouse,
and remote storage).
