BIOS Recovery Jumper

When the BIOS Recovery jumper block is moved from its default pin position (pins 1-2), the system will boot
using a backup BIOS image to the uEFI shell, where a standard BIOS update can be performed. See the BIOS
update instructions that are included with System Update Packages (SUP) downloaded from Intel's
download center web site. This jumper is used when the system BIOS has become corrupted and is non-
functional, requiring a new BIOS image to be loaded on to the server board.
Note: The BIOS Recovery jumper is ONLY used to re-install a BIOS image in the event the BIOS has become
corrupted. This jumper is NOT used when the BIOS is operating normally needs to be updated from one
version to another.
The following procedure should be followed.
Note: System Update Packages (SUP) can be downloaded from Intel's download center web site.
