Automated boot recovery (ABR)
Use this information for Automated boot recovery (ABR).
About this task
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 170.
After you have recovered the firmware in the primary bank, complete the
following steps:
Procedure
1.
Restart the server.
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
Use this information for 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:
v
The server restarts automatically and attempts POST again.
v
The server hangs, 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.
To specify the number of consecutive restart attempts that will trigger the Nx-boot
failure feature, in the Setup utility, click
System Settings
>
Recovery
>
POST
Attempts
>
POST Attempts Limit
. The available options are 3, 6, 9, and 255
(disable Nx-boot failure).
