CP6002 uEFI BIOS 8. Updating the uEFI BIOS Updating the uEFI BIOS BIOS updates are typically delivered as an update CD ISO image. This ISO image needs just to be burned to a CD and booted. Follow the menu for updating the uEFI BIOS. For further information refer to the update CD documentation. 8.1 BIOS Redundancy Strategy The CP6002 has two sets of EFI flash chips to form an EFI redundancy strategy.
PAGE 76
Updating the uEFI BIOS 8.5 CP6002 uEFI BIOS Flash Selection by DIP Switch On some cases it may be necessary to force the board to boot from the other flash without using the appropriate IPMI command to switch the flash chips. In this case, the onboard DIP switch SW1, switch 2, is used to toggle the active flash. Note that this switch does not “select” one flash chip. It toggles the currently active flash.
