Setting the ROM Operation Mode Switch
If the power to your server is interrupted while POST/BIOS is being
updated, your server might not restart correctly. If this happens,
perform the following procedure to recover.
Before you begin:
Ÿ
Read “Electrical Safety” on page 54 and “Handling
Static-Sensitive Devices” on page 55.
Ÿ
Turn off the server and all other connected devices.
Ÿ
Disconnect all external cables attached to the server; then,
remove the server cover (see “Preparing to Add Options” on
page 56).
1. Locate the configuration switches (also known as rocker
switches) on the system board. For more information, refer to
the label inside the server, or see “System Board Illustration” on
page 203.
2. To set the ROM operation mode to the appropriate value, set
switch 5 as shown in the following illustration. It might be
helpful to use the end of a small screwdriver to set the switch.
