1.From the main menu, select the Maintenance tab. The Maintenance submenu tabs appear.

2.Click the Firmware Update tab.

The Firmware Update screen appears.

3.Select the firmware file or CPLD file to update.

These files are located on the Tools and Drivers CD in the Remote_Firmware directory.

4.Choose whether to preserve the system BIOS CMOS and load optimized defaults.

5.Firmware will perform a check and ask the user to confirm the update by displaying current and proposed firmware revisions.

6.When the update is finished, after approximately five minutes, the SP resets and you are logged out.

Recovering from a Corrupt SP

Should the SP (service processor) software become corrupted, you can reinstall the default image from the CD. You need a bootable USB flash device and a jumper cap.

Note – The server has a a jumper cap installed on the motherboard for this purpose. It is next to the AST 2000 chip.
