In-band method: Recover server firmware, using either the boot block jumper (Automated Boot

Recovery) and a server Firmware Update Package Service Pack.

Out-of-band method: Use the IMM Web Interface to update the firmware, using the latest server

firmware update package.

Notes: You can obtain a server update package from one of the following sources:

• Download the server firmware update from the World Wide Web.

• Contact your Lenovo service representative.

To download the server firmware update package from the World Wide Web, go to
http://www.lenovo.com/support.

The flash memory of the server consists of a primary bank and a backup bank. It is essential that you
maintain the backup bank with a bootable firmware image. If the primary bank becomes corrupted, you can
either manually boot the backup bank with the boot block jumper, or in the case of image corruption, this
will occur automatically with the Automated Boot Recovery function.

steps:
