EFI System Firmware Update Package (SFUP) Installation and Operation Instructions Intel(R) Server System R1000JP Family Intel(R) Server Board S1600JP Series Firmware Update Package Update Instructions Released - January 11, 2016 ******************************************************************************* This update package includes the following system software updates: System BIOS - 02.06.0002 ME Firmware - 02.01.07.328 BMC Firmware - 01.25.9398 FRUSDR - 1.06 Important NOTES: - All the updates provided in this package are EFI based (unless otherwise noted).To run these updates, you must boot the system to the embedded EFI shell and then access the USB device or hard disk containing the system software updates. - NOTICE: As security requirement, starting from BIOS R02.05.0004 revision doesn't support capsule downgrade in normal mode. In order to downgrade from this BIOS version, you must use the recovery jumper method. -This version enhances the protection of platform configuration data as described in Intel Security Advisory INTEL-SA-00043 ************************************************************************************* SYSTEM HARDWARE and SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS ************************************************************************************* The contents of this update package is used to update the System Firmware for the following Intel Server Products only: - Intel(R)Server System R1000JP Family - Intel(R) Server Board S1600JP Series To update the system firmware to the versions included in this update package, the firmware currently loaded on the given server system must meet the following: - BIOS 01.01.1002, or later Version - ME 02.01.05.069 or later Version - BMC 01.00.2612 or later Version - FRUSDR 1.01 or later version The utilities used to update the System Firmware are: - Iflash32 11.0 build 11 - FWPIAUPD 11.0 build 9 - FRUSDR 11.0 build 19 ************************************************************************************* Standard Update Procedure from the embedded EFI Shell ************************************************************************************* - Unzip the contents of the update package and copy all files to a folder on a USB flash drive - Insert the USB flash drive to any available USB port on the server system to be updated - Boot the Server to the EFI shell. This can be accessed via the BIOS setup utility during POST. - Run the command "map -r" in the EFI shell to mount the USB flash drive - Run the command "fs0:" to change folders to the USB flash drive. The USB flash drive may also mount to fs1: depending on other installed devices. The number of "fs#" is dependent on the result of command "map -r" - Change folders to the folder storing the update package files - Run the command "Startup.nsh" to start updating all the firmware and BIOS updates Warning: !!Do NOT reboot or remove power from your system during the update process. Doing so may render your system inoperable. !! ----- Verifying updates - Reboot the system - During POST, hit the Key when prompted to access the BIOS Setup Utility - Hit the F9 key to load BIOS Defaults - At the MAIN menu verify the BIOS revision is correct - Move cursor to the SERVER MANAGEMENT Menu - Move cursor down to the SYSTEM INFORMATION Option and hit Enter - Verify the BMC Firmware revision is correct - Verify the SDR revision is correct - Verify the ME Firmware revision is correct - Hit the F10 Key to save changes and Exit The System Software Update is Complete. ************************************************************************************* Alternate Update Procedure: Individual Firmware Update Procedure ************************************************************************************* If you want to update firmware components individually, like BMC/BIOS/ME/FRUSDR, do NOT run the "STARTUP.NSH" file described in the Standard Update Procedure above. Instead, run the individual .NSH script file for each update included in the update package files. Follow the update order below to ensure a trouble free update: 1) BMC firmware update 2) BIOS update 3) Manageability Engine (ME) Firmware update 4) FRUSDR update ---- Update BMC Firmware 1) Boot the system to the EFI shell and go to root folder 2) At the shell prompt, run "UpdateBMC.nsh" to start BMC Firmware update 3) When complete, go to the BIOS update section described below, or power off the system and cycle AC power before continuing. ---- Update System BIOS 1) Boot the system to the EFI shell and go to root folder 2) At the shell prompt, run "UpdateBIOS.nsh" to start BIOS update 3) When complete, reboot the system and enter BIOS Setup by pressing the F2 Key during POST 4) Verify the BIOS string on main BIOS menu 5) Press F9 to load defaults and press F10 to save and reset the system 6) Go to the ME firmware update section described below The BIOS update is complete. Either reboot the server or go to the ME firmware Update section described below. ---- Update ME Firmware 1) Boot the system to the EFI shell and go to root folder 2) At the shell prompt, run "UpdateME.nsh" to start ME firmware update 3) When complete, go to the FRUSDR update section described below, or power off the system and cycle AC power before continuing. ---- Update FRUSDR 1) Boot the system to the EFI shell and go to root folder 2) At the EFI command prompt, run "UpdateFRUSDR.nsh" to start FRUSDR update 3) Answer questions and enter desired information when prompted. 4) When complete, reboot the system by front control panel ---- Verifying updates - Reboot the server - During POST, hit the Key when prompted to access the BIOS Setup Utility - Hit the F9 key to load BIOS Defaults - At the MAIN menu verify the BIOS revision is correct - Move cursor to the SERVER MANAGEMENT Menu - Move cursor down to the SYSTEM INFORMATION Option and hit Enter - Verify the BMC Firmware revision is correct - Verify the SDR revision is correct - Verify the ME Firmware revision is correct - Hit the F10 Key to save changes and Exit The System Software Update is Complete. ******************************************************************************* BIOS Recovery Process ******************************************************************************* In the unlikely event the BIOS is corrupted, leaving the system in an unbootable state, it may be necessary to perform the following BIOS Recovery procedure. 1. Copy the following BIOS update files to the root directory of a USB media device (Recovery Media): Note: These specific files will be located in the "BIOS Recovery Files" folder included in the System Update Package. - IPMI.EFI - IFlash32.EFI - RML.ROM - R##.##.####REC.CAP (where ##.##.#### = BIOS revision number) - STARTUP.NSH (modified to support BIOS recovery) 2. Power OFF the system 3. Locate the BIOS Recovery Jumper on the server board and move the jumper block from pins 1-2 (default) to pins 2-3 (recovery setting) 4. Insert the recovery media into any available USB port on the back of the server Note: The front panel USB ports may not work for this procedure on some server systems. 5. Power ON the system 6. The system will automatically boot into the embedded EFI Shell 7. The STARTUP.NSH file automatically executes and initiates the flash update. When complete, the IFlash utility will display a message 8. Power OFF the system and return the BIOS Recovery jumper to its default position 9. Remove recovery media from the USB port 10. Power ON the system 11. Do *NOT* interrupt the BIOS POST during the first boot.
