Intel server boards contain a number of high-density VLSI and power delivery components that need adequate
airflow for cooling. Intel's own chassis are designed and tested to meet the intended thermal requirements of these
components when the fully integrated system is used together. It is the responsibility of the system integrator that
chooses not to use Intel developed server building blocks to consult v endor datasheets and operating parameters to
determine the amount of airflow required for their specific application and environmental conditions. Intel Corporation
can not be held responsible if components fail or the server board does not operate correctly when used outside any
of their published operating or non-operating limits.

Warnings

Heed safety instructions: Before working with your server product, whether you are
using this guide or any other resource as a reference, pay close attention to the safety
instructions. You must adhere to the assembly instructions in this guide to ensure and
maintain compliance with existing product certifications and approvals. Use only the
described, regulated components specified in this guide. Use of other products /
components will void the UL listing and other regulatory approvals of the product and
will most likely result in noncompliance with product regulations in the region(s) in which
the product is sold.

System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system AC power. To
remove power from system, you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.
Make sure the AC power cord is unplugged before you open the chassis, add, or remove
any components.

Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be
present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and
disconnect the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached
to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can
result.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives,
boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter
only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by
wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground any unpainted metal surface on
your server when handling parts.

ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely
sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board from its
protective wrapper or from the server, place the board component side up on a grounded,
static free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do
not slide board over any surface.

Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips
over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your
fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab,
take care when using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow
sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can
damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function
controlled by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool
you use to remove a jumper, or you may bend or break the pins on the board.

2 Server Utilities

Using the BIOS Setup Utility

This section describes the BIOS Setup Utility options, which are used to change server
configuration defaults. You can run BIOS Setup with or without an operating system
present. See the links under
Server Board S3420GP Technical Product Specification where you will find details about
specific BIOS setup screens.

Starting Setup

You can enter and start BIOS Setup under several conditions:

“Server System References” on page x for a link to the Intel®

• When you turn on the server, after POST completes the memory test.

• When you have moved the CMOS jumper on the server board to the “Clear CMOS”
position (enabled).

In the two conditions listed previously, during the Power On Self Test (POST), you will
see this prompt:

Press <F2> to enter SETUP

In a third condition, when CMOS/NVRAM is corrupted, you will see other prompts but
not the <F2> prompt:

Warning: CMOS checksum invalid

Warning: CMOS time and date not set

In this condition, the BIOS loads the default values for CMOS and attempts to boot.

If You Cannot Access Setup

If you cannot access the BIOS Setup, you might need to clear the CMOS memory. For
instructions on clearing the CMOS, see

Setup Menus

“Clearing the CMOS” on page 24.

Each BIOS Setup menu page contains a number of features. Except for those features that
are provided only to display automatically configured information, each feature is
associated with a value field that contains user-selectable parameters. A user can change
these parameters if they have adequate security rights. If a value cannot be changed for
any reason, the feature's value field is inaccessible.

Intel® Server System SR1630GP / SR1630HGP Service Guide 19

Table 6. Setup Menu Key Use

Setup Confirmation

Save Configuration changes and exit now?

[Yes] [No]

• On-board system BIOS, including the recovery code, BIOS Setup Utility, and

strings.

• On-board video BIOS, and other option ROMs for devices embedded on the server

board.

• OEM binary area

• Microcode

Preparing for the Upgrade

The following steps explain how to prepare to upgrade the BIOS, including how to record
the current BIOS settings and obtain the upgrade utility.

Note: In the unlikely event that a BIOS error occurs during the BIOS update process, you may

need to follow a recovery process to return the system to service. See

References” on page x for a link to necessary software and instructions.

Recording the Current BIOS Settings

1. Boot the computer and press <F2> when you see the following message:

Press <F2> Key if you want to run SETUP

2. Write down the current settings in the BIOS Setup program.

“Server System

Note: Do not skip Step 2. You need these settings to configure your server at the end of the

procedure.

Intel® Server System SR1630GP / SR1630HGP Service Guide 21

Obtaining the Upgrade

Download the BIOS image file to a temporary folder on your hard drive. See “Server

System References” on page x for a link to the update software.

Note: Before attempting a BIOS upgrade, review the instructions and release notes provided in

the readme file distributed with the BIOS image file. The release notes contain critical
information regarding jumper settings, specific fixes, and other information to complete
the upgrade.

Upgrading the BIOS

Follow the instructions in the readme file that came with the BIOS upgrade. When the
update completes, remove the bootable media from which you performed the upgrade.

Caution: Do not power down the system during the BIOS update process!

Note: You may encounter a CMOS Checksum error or other problem after reboot. If this

happens, shut down the system and boot it again. CMOS checksum errors require that you
enter Setup, check your settings, save your settings, and exit Setup.

Recovering the BIOS

If an update to the system BIOS is not successful or if the system fails to complete POST
and the BIOS is unable to boot an operating system, it may be necessary to run the BIOS
recovery procedure.

To place the baseboard into recovery mode, move the boot option jumper (located on the
baseboard) to the recovery position. The BIOS can then execute the recovery BIOS (also
known as the boot block) instead of the normal BIOS. The recovery BIOS is a self­contained image that exists solely as a fail-safe mechanism for installing a new BIOS
image.

Note: During the recovery mode, video is not initialized. One high-pitched beep announces the

start of the recovery process. The entire process takes two to four minutes. A successful
update ends with two high-pitched beeps. Failure is indicated by a long series of short
beeps.

Recovering the BIOS

The following steps boot the recovery BIOS and flashes the normal BIOS:

1. Power down and unplug the system from the AC power source.

2. Move the recovery jumper at JIF3 from the spare location at pins 2 and 3 to cover
pins 1 and 2. Refer to the following figure.

Updating the Integrated BMC

Figure 13. BMC Force Update Jumper

When performing the standard Integrated BMC firmware update procedure, the update
utility places the Integrated BMC into an update mode, allowing the firmware to load

Intel® Server System SR1630GP / SR1630HGP Service Guide 25

safely onto the flash device. In the unlikely event the Integrated BMC firmware update
process fails (due to the Integrated BMC not being in the proper update state), the server

board provides an Integrated BMC Force Update jumper, which forces the Integrated
BMC into the proper update state. You should complete the following procedure in the
event the standard Integrated BMC firmware update process fails.

Note: Normal Integrated BMC functionality is disabled with the Force Integrated BMC Update

jumper set to the enabled position. The server should never be run with the Integrated
BMC Force Update jumper set in this position. This jumper setting should only be used
when the standard firmware update process fails. This jumper should remain in the
default / disabled position when the server is running normally.

1. Power down and remove the AC power cord.

2. Open the server chassis. For instructions, refer to your server chassis
documentation.

3. Move the jumper from the default operating position (covering pins 1 and 2) to the
enabled position (covering pins 2 and 3).

4. Close the server chassis.

5. Reconnect the AC cord and power up the server.

6. Perform the Integrated BMC firmware update procedure as documented in the
README.TXT file included in the given Integrated BMC firmware update
package. After successful completion of the firmware update process, the firmware
update utility may generate an error stating the Integrated BMC is still in update
mode.

7. Power down and remove the AC power cord.

8. Open the server chassis.

9. Move jumper from the enabled position (covering pins 2 and 3) to the disabled
position (covering pins 1 and 2).

10. Close the server chassis.

11. Reconnect the AC cord and power up the server.
