Recovering from a POST/UEFI update failure

If power to your server is interrupted while the POST/UEFI is being updated

(flash update), your server might not restart correctly. If this happens, perform the

following procedure, which is commonly called Boot-block Recovery.

1. Remove all media from the drives and turn off all attached devices and the

server. Then, disconnect all power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect

all cables that are connected to the server.

2. Remove the server cover. See “Removing the server cover” on page 18.

3. Locate the Clear CMOS /Recovery jumper on the system board. Refer to

“System-board internal connectors” on page 14.

4. Remove all parts and disconnect all cables that might prevent your access to

the Clear CMOS /Recovery jumper.

Note: You might need to remove the secondary hard disk drive to access the

Clear CMOS /Recovery jumper. See “Replacing the secondary hard disk

drive” on page 31.

5. Move the jumper from the standard position (pin 1 and pin 2) to the

maintenance position (pin 2 and pin 3).

6. Reinstall all parts and reconnect all cables that have been removed.

7. Reinstall the server cover and reconnect the power cords for the server and

monitor to electrical outlets. See “Completing the parts replacement” on page

44.

8. Repeatedly press and release the F12 key when turning on the server. When

the Please select boot device window displays, release the F12 key.

9. Select the optical drive of your choice as the first boot device.

10. Insert the POST/UEFI update (flash) disc into the optical drive and press

Enter. The recovery begins. The recovery session will take two to three

minutes. During this time, you will hear a series of beeps.

11. After the recovery session is completed, the series of beeps will end, and the

system will automatically turn off.

12. Repeat step 1 through step 4.

13. Move the Clear CMOS /Recovery jumper back to the standard position (pin 1

and pin 2).

14. Reinstall all parts and reconnect all cables that have been removed.

15. Reinstall the server cover and reconnect all the power cords and other cables.

See “Completing the parts replacement” on page 44.

16. Turn on the server and remove the disc from the optical drive.
