Recovering from corrupted CMOS and BIOS
If the system functions abnormally (for example, it does not start up or
it freezes during the startup process), the CMOS may be corrupted. To
correct this, follow the procedure in ""To recover from a corrupted CMOS"
(page 164)" below.
In situations where a BIOS is corrupt or a BIOS update is not successful,
the 703t server can start in recovery mode. To boot in recovery mode, follow
the procedure in "To recover from a corrupted BIOS" (page 165).
To recover from a corrupted CMOS
Step Action
1
Power down the server.
2
Remove the server cover and access the motherboard.
3
Move the CMOS Clear jumper (J1H1) to pins 2 and 3 (by default, the
jumper is set to pins 1 and 2).
To determine the jumper location, see "Jumper locations and
settings" (page 166).
4
Power up the server.
Result: A message appears stating that the CMOS has been
cleared (reset to factory defaults).
5
Power down the server.
