5-2 BIOS Updates
It may be necessary to update the BIOS used in the blade modules on occasion.
However, it is recommended that you not update BIOS if you are not experiencing
problems with a blade module.
Updated BIOS files are located on our web site (http://www.supermicro.com/products/
microblade). Please check the current BIOS revision and make sure it is newer than the
revision you have.
To upload a new BIOS update, simply follow the Help instructions in the IPMI BIOS
Upload page (Figure 5-1) when you press the Help button at the top of the page. This
procedure will get you a BIOS Update.
Flashing BIOS
Use the procedures below to “Flash” your BIOS with a new update using the USB ports
on the CMM module or by use of a Floppy Image file.
Flashing a BIOS using the USB Ports on the CMM:
1. Copy the contents of the zip file to a bootable USB pen drive.
2. Connect your bootable USB pen drive to one of the two USB slots on the CMM
(located on the back side of the enclosure).
3. Boot to the USB pen drive and go to the directory where you saved the contents of
the zip file.
