Hi Experts,
I have an S5520UR motherboard in a SR2612UR server.
It worked for years but before a new OS install I decided to update it to the latest (already 3 years old) firmware.
I installed the BIOS60/BMC58/FUR26/ME112 via the the EFI shell.
During the update I already noticed that the FRU and ME updates are failed saying "BMC are already in firmware transfer mode".
After reboot I noticed that I BMC LAN menu is greyed out in BIOS.
I removed the power cord redo the update with same result, Boot block are showing version 0.00
I tried the force update jumper according to:
reset to default bios settings, force update on and back again but it does not fixed the BMC.
Luckily the machine boots, works ok, but I`m afraid without a working BMC it will not run well and maybe damaged.
Do you have any advice what should I try to resurrect the BMC ?
What is you opinion about running the server without working BMC ?
I wish you have a better luck.
