NOTE: Please use the label print information to access Redfish API. IPMI/Web account information is
separated from Redfish account. Newly added Redfish accounts cannot access IPMI. Newly added IPMI
accounts cannot access Redfish API.
Updating the firmware
Many common problems can be resolved by updating the firmware. The BMC FW can be updated
through a host-based utility or through the web GUI.
Restoring the default configuration
The BMC FW supports an OEM command to restore all of the configuration values to their defaults. Using
the OEM command restores all IPMI configuration parameters and all Linux user configuration files
(password, group, and so on). The OEM command is not available to the end user, but the web GUI
provides a friendly interface to do this. This command does not restore the SEL records.
BMC FW version
The “Get Device ID” command (NetFn Application, Command 1) reports the firmware revision. The “Get
Device ID” command also reports the auxiliary firmware revision.
The firmware build ID can map from the firmware revision. Naming convention of build ID is xx.yy.0. “xx” is
major revision, and “y” is minor firmware revision. For example, if the firmware revision is 0.09 for general
customers, the build ID is 0.09.0. End-users can confirm whether restore default configuration when
updating firmware through the utilities or through the web GUI.
The default configuration should be restored when SDR is changed.
