Disabling the boot watchdog
The boot watchdog determines whether the OS boots within a preset time
frame. If the watchdog timer expires, the system will automatically reboot.
If the system is to be started from removable boot media for firmware upgrade
purposes, the boot watchdog needs to be disabled before starting maintenance
task. Otherwise, the boot watchdog might initiate a system reboot before the
flash process is complete.
CAUTION
An incomplete firmware upgrade process may render the server
inaccessible or result in damaged/destroyed hardware.
Timer settings can be configured in the BIOS.
