================================================================================
             INSTALLATION NOTES
================================================================================

WARNING:  It is very important to follow these instructions as they are written.
Failure to update using the proper procedure may cause damage to your system.

1.User can update BIOS flash image via either of the follow methods...

  1.)  Copy the entire contents of the Package file to the HDD or USB flash drive.
       (All of the files must reside in the same directory.)
  2.)  Boot to UEFI Shell, then change the Shell to the mapped device file system
       Example: Shell> fs0: (or fs1:)
  3.)  Run updAll.nsh for BIOS, ME and FD region upgrade together.
       updBios.nsh, updME.nsh and updFD.nsh for each region upgrade respectively.
  4.)  Reboot system after the update is completed.
  5.)  Do *NOT* interrupt the BIOS POST during the first boot.

2.BIOS update under recovery mode as below methods
  The USB media is necessary for primary BIOS upgrade and must contain the following
  files under the root directory, you can capture all the ingredients from BIOS
  release package:
  1.)  UEFI iFlash32 (including IFlash32.efi and ipmi.efi )
  2.)  *.CAP( the released BIOS capsule which version you expect to update)
  3.)  Startup.nsh (update accordingly to use proper *.CAP file)

  A: Install USB media after recovery boot to shell, you need to follow below steps
  1.) Under Shell, type "map -r" to map all disc
  2.) Change the Shell to mapped device file system
       Example: Shell> fs0: (or fs1:)
  3.) Execute the startup.nsh scripts for BIOS update, wait for BIOS update complete
  4.) Power OFF the system, and revert the recovery jumper position to
      "normal operation".
  5.) Power ON the system.
  6.) Do *NOT* interrupt the BIOS POST during the first boot.

  B: Installed USB media prior to recovery boot
     It will boot automatically into EFI Shell to invoke the Startup.nsh script and
     start the flash update application (IFlash32.efi).
     IFlash32.efi requires the supporting BIOS Capsule image file (*.CAP). After the
     update is complete, there will be a message displayed stating that the "BIOS has
     been updated successfully" indicating the recovery process is finished. The User
     should then switch the recovery jumper back to normal operation and restart the
     system by performing a power cycle.

Notes: If to update backup BIOS region, you need to customize the iflash32 update
       scripts and add "UpdateBackupBios" parameter
Notes: Setup variable structure has been changed in E5-2600V4 BIOS. If downgrading E5-2600V4 BIOS
       to lower versions or E5-2600V3 BIOS, please add 'NvramUpdate' parameter.



================================================================================
                        BIOS RECOVERY INSTRUCTIONS
================================================================================
The Recovery process can be initiated by setting the recovery jumper
(called BIOS Recovery Boot Jumper)

A BIOS recovery can be accomplished from backup BIOS region.

BIOS starts the recovery process by first loading and booting to the recovery image
from backup BIOS region. This process takes place before any video or console is
available. Once the system boots to recovery image.

The following steps demonstrate this recovery process:
   1.  Power OFF the system.
   2.  Switch the recovery jumper. Details regarding the jumper ID and location
       can be obtained from the Server Board TPS for that Platform.
   3.  Power ON the system.
   4.  The BIOS POST screen will appear displaying the progress and system
       automatically boots to the EFI SHELL.
   5.  Follow the BIOS recovery update manual for BIOS recovery.


================================================================================
            ME FW Capsule INSTALLATION NOTES
================================================================================
WARNING:  It is very important to follow these instructions as they are written.
Failure to update using the proper procedure may cause damage to your system.

!!!!! Please make sure AC plug in during update !!!!!
!!!!! AC failure during update may cause damage to your system and unrecoverable !!!!!

User can update ME image via either of the follow methods:

    1.  Copy the entire contents of the DXXX_Package.zip archive file to the
        HDD or USB flash drive. (All of the files in the zip archive must reside in the same directory.)
    2.  Boot to UEFI Shell, then change the Shell to mapped device file system
       Example: Shell> fs0: (or fs1:)
    3.  Use updME.nsh and updFD.nsh for ME FW upgrade.
    4.  Reboot system after the update is completed.


================================================================================
            IMPORTANT NOTICE
================================================================================

1. The BIOS R01.01.0002 auto scripts will force to update both normal and backup
   BIOS region since security revision was updated, Once user upgrade BIOS to
   R01.01.0002, it will prevent BIOS downgrade to previous version that with low
   security revision, user can use BIOS recovery mode for BIOS downgrade
2. The BIOS R01.01.0003 included security fix and security revision upgrade,
   refer to item #1.
3. If doing online BIOS update to R01.01.0003, user must use the auto scripts
   enabled in the release package which will force update BIOS NVRAM and backup
   region.
4. BIOS R01.01.0004 requires update of NVRAM and backup region.
5. BIOS R01.01.0009 and D0019 will enable UEFI Secure Boot and include below limitations:
    - Please read "BIOS UEFI SECURE BOOT IMPACT AND MITIGATION METHOD" section in this
      BIOS release notes
    - All customer settings saved in BIOS NVRAM will be lost after new BIOS upgrade.
    - BIOS downgrade is not allowed if user has enabled BIOS secure boot. All customer
      setting will be lost also if downgrade to previous BIOS release.
    - Backup BIOS region is also required to be updated to prevent recovery failure
      please use release package to update BIOS.
    - There is downgrade hang risk if you don't follow above rules.
    - Further BIOS release will not suffer from these side effects as the NVRAM region
      is formatted as authenticated variable storage
6. System will hang 0xbf after downgrading BIOS from D0055(E5-2600V4 code tree) to R0011/R0009(E5-2600V3 code tree) randomly.
    -Set SUT to recovery mode to power on, then set it back to normal boot to see whether it is recovered.

7. BIOS D0070/R13/R14 The iFlash32 utility parameter of 'UpdateNvram' is not supported under Normal Mode, however it is only supported under Recovery Mode.


================================================================================
     BIOS UEFI SECURE BOOT IMPACT AND MITIGATION METHOD
=================================================================================
1. Customer Setting Loss Issue and Mitigation Method
    When user upgrades BIOS with secure boot feature, the NVRAM will be automatically
  formatted as authenticated variable physical storage. However, all previous customer
  settings storage in NVRAM will be lost even if user does not enable UEFI secure boot
  feature.
    Users can take the follow recipe to save and restore their settings based on
  the actual NVRAM usage if they wish to upgrade or downgrade between BIOS with or
  without secure boot feature.
    Supposing customer requires to save & restore their specific NVRAM named 'var':
  Steps:
  1. Prepare FAT partition USB key (or HDD).
  2. Boot to EFI shell.
  3. Check the file system mapping (e.g. fs0:) of the USB key with 'map -r' command.
  4. Use 'dmpstore var -s fs0:\var.bin' to save the variable to the physical file.
  5. Perform BIOS update and reboot system.
  6. Boot to EFI shell.
  7. Use 'dmpstore var -l fs0:\var.bin' to restore the variable.
  8. Reboot the system if the customer setting requires reboot to take effect.

Notes:
  1. Immediate reboot after BIOS update is mandatory. Or the restore operation will
     not take effect.
  2. Customers can repeat step 4 and step 7 for several times if they need to save & restore
     multiple NVRAM variables.
  3. Most of BIOS customer settings by SysCfg can also be restored in this way. Customers
     can follow previous step1~8 by substituting 'Setup' for 'var' in the sample.
  4. For BIOS downgrade case, step7 cannot be used to restore authenticate variables
     (e.g. PK, KEK, DB, DBX) to non-authenticated NVRAM storage

2. Recovery Mode Failure
   There is known bug that it cannot POST successfully with authenticated NVRAM storage.
   This will cause platform recovery failure and permanent deny of service (PDOS) if the
   primary BIOS region gets corrupted for some reason. It is required to update backup BIOS
   region when upgrade BIOS capsule with secure boot feature.
Notes:
  For downgrade case, user is not required to update backup BIOS region as new
  BIOS with secure boot feature can handle NVRAM with old storage format:
  it will format it to new authenticated variable storage automatically.
  However, care must be taken when downgrading BIOS in recovery mode: After flashing
  BIOS without secure boot feature, user should restore recovery HW jumper immediately
  before platform reset.If platforms reset occurs before restoring recovery HW jumper,
  the backup BIOS will once again format NVRAM to new storage format, which will cause
  newly flashed BIOS (without secure boot feature) POST failure after user restores
  recovery HW jumper.
