Kontron CG1200 Carrier Grade Server Installation and Maintenance Guide 86

NOTE: Removing power before performing the CMOS clear operation causes the system to automatically
power up and immediately power down after the procedure is followed and power is re-applied. If this
happens, remove the power cord again, wait 30 seconds, and reconnect the power cord. Then you can
power up the system and proceed to the <F2> BIOS Setup utility to reset the settings.

Clearing the Password

Passwords can be reset by moving the “Password Clear” jumper (J2L5 ) into the “clear” position. The
“Password Clear” jumper must be restored to its original position before a new password(s) can be set.
The “Password Clear” jumper is shown in Figure 23.

1.

Power down the server. Do not disconnect the power cord(s).

2.

Open the server chassis. See “Removing the Chassis Cover”, in Section 3.2 for instructions.

3.

Remove riser assembly. For instructions, see “Removing the Riser Card Assembly”.

4.

Move the jumper (J2L5) from the normal operation position covering pins 1 and 2 to the “Password
Clear” position, covering pins 2 and 3.

5.

Close the server chassis.

6.

Power up the server and wait 10 seconds or until POST completes.

7.

Power down the server.

8.

Open the chassis and move the jumper back to the default position covering pins 1 and 2.

9.

Re-install the riser card assembly.

10. Close the server chassis. See” Re-installing the Chassis Cover” in Section 3.2 for instructions.

The password is now cleared and can be reset by going into the BIOS setup.

BMC Force Update Procedure

In the standard integrated BMC firmware update procedure, the update utility places the integrated BMC
into an update mode that allows the firmware to load safely onto the flash device. In the unlikely event the
integrated BMC firmware update process fails because the integrated BMC is not in the proper update
state, the server board provides an “Integrated BMC Force Update” jumper (J1L7) ) that forces the
integrated BMC into the proper update state. See Figure 23 for the location of this jumper. Use the
following procedure if the standard integrated BMC firmware update process fails.

1. Power down the server and unplug the power cord(s).

2. Open the server chassis. See “Removing the Chassis Cover”, in Section 3.2 for instructions.

3. Remove the riser assembly. For instructions, see “Removing the Riser Card Assembly”.

4. Locate jumper block (J1L7) and move the jumper from the default position covering pins 1-2 to the

“Enable” position covering pins 2-3.

5. Close the server chassis. See” Re-installing the Chassis Cover” in Section 3.2 for instructions.

6. Reconnect the power cord(s) and power up the server.

7. Now perform the Integrated BMC firmware update procedure as documented in the README.TXT

file included in the BMC Firmware Update package. After the firmware update process completes
successfully, the firmware update utility may generate an error stating that the Integrated BMC is still
in update mode.
