Force BMC Update Procedure
When performing the standard Integrated BMC firmware update procedure, the update utility
places the Integrated BMC into an update mode, allowing the firmware to load safely onto the
flash device. In the unlikely event the Integrated BMC firmware update process fails due to the
Integrated BMC not being in the proper update state, the server board provides an Integrated
BMC Force Update jumper, which forces the Integrated BMC into the proper update state. The
following procedure should be completed in the event the standard Integrated BMC firmware
update process fails.
1. Power down and remove the AC power cord.
2. Open the server chassis. For instructions, see your server chassis documentation.
3. Move jumper from the default operating position (covering pins 1 and 2) to the enabled
position (covering pins 2 and 3).
4. Close the server chassis.
5. Reconnect the AC cord and power up the server.
6. Perform the Integrated BMC firmware update procedure as documented in the
README.TXT file that is included in the given Integrated BMC firmware update package.
7. After successful completion of the firmware update process, the firmware update utility
may generate an error stating that the Integrated BMC is still in update mode.
8. Power down and remove the AC power cord.
9. Open the server chassis.
10. Move jumper from the enabled position (covering pins 2 and 3) to the disabled position
(covering pins 1 and 2).
11. Close the server chassis.
12. Reconnect the AC cord and power up the server.
Note: Normal Integrated BMC functionality is disabled with the Force Integrated BMC Update
