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 HP ProLiant BL p-Class System
Maintenance and Service Guide and contact an HP authorized reseller.
