Configuring and Deploying Server Blades
4. Select one of the ROM banks as the system ROM.
5. Press the Enter key.
6. Press the Esc key to exit the current menu or press the F10 key to exit RBSU.
7. Restart the server blade.
When the server blade boots, the system identifies whether the current ROM bank is
corrupt. If a corrupt ROM is detected, the system boots from the backup ROM and
alerts you through POST or IML that the ROM bank is corrupt.
If both the current and backup versions of the ROM are corrupt, you must return the
system board for a service replacement. Refer to the Compaq ProLiant BL p-Class
System Maintenance and Service Guide and contact a Compaq authorized reseller.
