iLO network Failed Flash Recovery

Most firmware upgrades finish successfully. In the unlikely event of server power loss during an iLO
firmware upgrade, iLO might be recoverable when power is restored.
When the iLO starts, the startup code performs image validation on the main image. If the image is
corrupted or incomplete and it cannot be recovered automatically with the Secure Recovery feature, iLO
enters Failed Flash Recovery mode. Failed Flash Recovery activates an FTP server within iLO. The FTP
server enables you to send an image to iLO for programming. The FTP server does not provide any other
services.
This feature is available only if iLO is configured to use the Production security state or the FIPS security
state.
A network client can connect to the FTP server. The user name for the connection is test, and the
password is flash. To send a firmware image to iLO, use the FTP client PUT command. After receiving
the image, iLO validates the image. If the image is a complete, signed, and valid firmware image, the
kernel begins programming the FLASH partition.
After the image is programmed into the FLASH partition, iLO resets automatically.
