4.7 Identifying BIOS and BMC Revision Levels

The following sections provide information to help identify a system's current BIOS and BMC
revision levels.

4.7.1 BIOS Revision Level Identification

During system POST, which runs automatically when the system is powered on, the monitor
displays several messages, one of which identifies the BIOS revision level currently loaded on
the system (see the following example).

Phoenix BIOS 4.0 Release 6.0.250A

In the example above, BIOS 6.0.250A is the current BIOS revision level loaded on the system.

Note:

The BIOS Revision Level

stated in the example might not reflect the actual BIOS setting

in any particular system.

4.7.2 BMC Revision Level Identification

During system POST, which runs automatically when the system is powered on, system
diagnostics are run. Following the memory test diagnostic, several messages appear to inform
the user that the mouse was detected and system configuration data updated. The BMC
messages follow these.

To identify the system's current BMC revision level, see the following example.

Base Board Management Controller
Device ID

:01

Device Revision :00

IPMI Version

Self Test Result:

In the example above, Firmware Revision 00.60 is the current BMC revision level loaded on
the system.
