9.Configuration Jumpers

This section describes configuration jumper options on the SE7501WV2 server board.

9.1System Recovery and Update Jumpers

The SE7501WV2 server board provides one 11-pin single inline header (J1D4), which provides a total of three 3-pin jumper blocks that are used to configure several system recovery and update options.

Option

Description

 

 

CMOS Clear

If pins 1 and 2 are jumpered (default), preservation of configuration CMOS through system reset is

 

controlled by the BMC. If pins 2 and 3 are jumpered, CMOS contents are set to manufacturing default

 

during system reset.

Password

If pins 5 and 6 are jumpered (default), the current system password is maintained during system reset.

Clear

If pins 6 and 7 are jumpered, the password is cleared on reset.

Recovery

If pins 9 and 10 are jumpered (default), the system will attempt to boot using the BIOS programmed in

Boot

the Flash memory. If pins 10 and 11 are jumpered, the BIOS will attempt a recovery boot, loading

 

BIOS code from a floppy disk into the Flash device. This is typically used when the BIOS code has

 

been corrupted.
