Integrated BMC Force Update Procedure

When performing a 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 that the Integrated BMC firmware update process fails due to
the Integrated BMC not being in the proper update state, the compute module provides a BMC
Force Update jumper (J1F3), which will force the Integrated BMC into the proper update state.
The following procedure should be followed in the event the standard Integrated BMC firmware
update process fails.
1. Power down the compute module.
2. Remove the compute module from the modular server chassis.
3. Open the compute module.
4. Move jumper from the default operating position (pins 1-2) to the "Enabled" position
(pins 2-3)
5. Close the compute module.
6. Reinstall and power up the compute module.
7. Perform Integrated BMC firmware update procedure.
8. Power down the compute module.
9. Remove the compute module from the server system.
10. Move jumper from the "Enabled" position (pins 2-3) to the "Disabled" position (pins 1-2).
11. Close the compute module.
12. Reinstall the compute module into the modular server chassis.
13. Power up the compute module.
Note: Normal Integrated BMC functionality (for example, KVM, monitoring, and remote media)
is disabled with the force BMC update jumper set to the "Enabled" position. The server should
never be run with the BMC force update jumper set in this position and 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.

Integrated BMC Initialization

When the DC power is first applied to the compute module by installing it into a chassis, 5V-
STBY is present, the Integrated BMC on the compute module requires 15-30 seconds to
initialize. During this time, the power button functionality of the control panel is disabled,
preventing the compute module from powering up.
6.4

ME Force Update Jumper

When performing the standard ME force update procedure, the update utility places the ME into
an update mode, allowing the ME to load safely onto the flash device. In the unlikely event ME
firmware update process fails due to ME not being in the proper update state, the compute
module provides an Integrated BMC Force Update jumper, which forces the ME into the proper
update state. The following procedure should be completed in the event the standard ME
firmware update process fails.
