8.1.7.1.1 System Boot Options Parameter #96

This boot parameter is an Artesyn-specific OEM boot parameter as defined in the following
table.

Table 8-9 System Boot Options Parameter #96

Data Byte

Description

1

1 Bits 7..2: Reserved
Bit 1: FPGA configuration stream load
0: Load configuration stream from default boot flash
1: Load configuration stream from backup boot flash
Note: The new FPGA configuration stream is loaded into
the FPGA at the next power cycle of the payload

Bit 0: Default/backup boot flash selection
0: Boot from default boot flash
1: Boot from backup boot flash
Note: the newly selected boot flash is connected to the
payload immediately, which means writing to the flash is
possible. Its image is executed after the next power-up or
cold reset of the payload.

The System Boot Options parameter #96 is non-volatile. It survives IPMC power cycle, reset and
may survive the IPMC firmware upgrades.

Activating new upgraded IPMC firmware may lead to FPGA/BIOS boot bank change back to
default boot bank if the NVRAM variables of the new upgraded IPMC firmware are different
from the previous active version.
