steps.
Note:
Use this method if the SYS BRD LED on the light path diagnostics panel is lit and there is an AMM
event log entry or Booting Backup Image is displayed on the firmware splash screen; otherwise, use the out-
of-band manual recovery method.

Automated boot recovery (ABR)
While the server is starting, if the integrated management module 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 from a UEFI update failure” on page 49. After you have recovered the firmware in the
primary bank, complete the following steps:
Step 1. Restart the server.
Step 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
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:
• The server restarts automatically and attempts POST again.
• The server hangs, and you must manually restart the server for the server to attempt POST again.
