Some cluster solutions require specific code levels or coordinated code updates. If the
device is part of a cluster solution, verify that the latest level of code is supported for the
cluster solution before you update the code.
If the server firmware has become corrupted, such as from a power failure during an
update, you can recover the server firmware in one of four ways:
•
In-band manual recovery method (See
In-band manual recovery method
below)
•
Out-of-band manual recovery method (See
Out-of-band manual recovery method
on
page 93.)
•
In-band automated boot recovery method (See
In-band automated boot recovery
method
on page 94.)
•
Out-of-band automated boot recovery method (See
Out-of-band automated boot
recovery method
on page 95.)

In-band manual recovery method
To recover the server firmware and restore the server operation to the primary bank,
complete the following steps:
1.
Download the blade server UEFI firmware update from the Bull support web site (see
Updating firmware and device drivers
on page 78).
2.
Turn off the server (see
Turning off the blade server
on page 16).
3.
Remove the blade server from the Blade Chassis (see
Removing the blade server from
the Blade Chassis
on page 25).
4.
Remove the server cover. See
Removing the blade server cover
on page 26 for more
information.
5.
Locate the UEFI boot block recovery switch (SW2-7) on the system board (see
System-
board switches
in section 2.8.2 of the
Problem Determination and Service Guide
).
6.
Use your finger to move switch SW2-7 to the ON position.
7.
Replace the cover and reinstall the blade server in the Blade Chassis, making sure that
the media tray is selected by the relevant blade server. See
Installing the blade server
cover
on page 60 and
Installing the blade server in a Blade Chassis
on page 62.
8.
Restart the blade server (see
Turning on the blade server
on page 15). The system
begins the power-on self-test (POST).
9.
Boot the server to an operating system that is supported by the firmware update
package that you downloaded.
