Clearing The Cmos; Updating The Integrated Bmc - Intel R1304BTSSFAN Service Manual

Clearing the CMOS

9. If you cannot access the BIOS setup screens, you must use the Protected RTC
(CMOS clear) jumper to reset the configuration RAM. For location of the jumper,
see
1. Power down the system and disconnect the AC power.
2. Open the server chassis. For instructions, see your server chassis documentation.
3. Move the jumper from the default operating position (covering pins 1 and 2) to the
reset/clear position (covering pins 2 and 3).
4. Wait five seconds.
5. Move the jumper back to default position, covering pins 1 and 2.
6. Close the server chassis.
7. Reconnect the AC power and power up the system. The CMOS is cleared and can
be reset by going into the BIOS setup.

Updating the Integrated BMC

8. 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. You should
complete the following procedure in the event the standard Integrated BMC
firmware update process fails. For location of the jumper, see
Jumpers" on page
Note: Normal Integrated BMC functionality is disabled with the Force Integrated BMC Update
jumper set to the enabled position. The server should never be run with the Integrated
BMC Force Update jumper set in this position. This jumper setting should only be used
when the standard firmware update process fails. This jumper should remain in the
default/disabled position when the server is running normally.
1. Power down and remove the AC power cord.
2. Open the server chassis. For instructions, refer to your server chassis
documentation.
3. Move the 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 included in the given Integrated BMC firmware update
package. After successful completion of the firmware update process, the firmware
