Updating A Syscon Device Using A Syscon Key - IBM Carrier Grade X3650 T User Manual

IBM® Carrier Grade Server X3650 T
After SysCon processing is complete, the EFI shell exits to 'Legacy Boot' which will then boot the next
item in the BIOS boot order.
Important: If a BIOS password has been established, the BIOS password must be made known to
SysCon on the SysCon device to enable settings to be restored properly. Before continuing with the
installation, the user must enter the BIOS password. Once the user has been authenticated, the SysCon
pre-boot menu will be displayed and the user can select the menu option "resume SysCon processing."

Updating a SysCon Device using a SysCon Key

When the SysCon device already has an established SysCon environment, and a SysCon Key is inserted
during the boot process, one sees two SysCon file systems (fs0: and fs1:) with SysCon environments
present. The updated version present on the SysCon key will be unknown to the installed version. The
"working SysCon environment" is the SysCon device or key where the menu items are performed. After
changing the SysCon working environment, the menu options change. In this case option 3 (Install)
replaces all the files and remove any saved settings. Option 4 preserves system data and only updates
the SysCon feature files.
