Redundant ROM Image Recovery

If power is interrupted during the flash process, a server with redundant ROM powers up as
usual, but the inactive (redundant) ROM image is corrupted.
A POST error message displays:
105 – Current System ROM is corrupt – now booting redundant System ROM.
In this instance, you are required to flash again so that the invalid image is now valid. After you
flash the invalid image, the system boots to that image—which was the original objective.
