8.1 Force IBMC Update (J1B5)
When performing a standard BMC firmware update procedure, the update utility places the
BMC into an update mode, allowing the firmware to load safely onto the flash device. In the
unlikely event the BMC firmware update process fails due to the BMC not being in the proper
update state, the server board provides a BMC Force Update jumper (J1B5) that forces the
BMC into the proper update state. You must complete the following procedure in the event
the standard BMC firmware update process fails.
