Rebooting the CIMC

On rare occasions, such as an issue with the current running firmware, troubleshooting a server may require you to reboot the CIMC. This procedure is not part of the normal maintenance of a server. After you reboot the CIMC, you are logged off and the CIMC will be unavailable for a few minutes.

Note If you reboot the CIMC while the server is performing power-on self test (POST) or is operating in the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) shell, the server will be powered down until the CIMC reboot is complete.

Procedure

	Command or Action	Purpose
Step 1	Server# scope cimc	Enters the CIMC command mode.
Step 2	Server /cimc # reboot	The CIMC reboots.

This example reboots the CIMC:
