Run Quick uBoot on the SP

Follow these steps to run Quick uBoot on the blade SP.

What to Do

  1. Attach a console directly to the serial port on the blade

    You must be monitoring uBoot output to switch from default to quick uBoot.

  2. Power-cycle or reset the SP to restart uBoot diagnostics.

    The blade's green OK LED blinks slowly as uBoot executes; the uBoot output is sent directly to the serial port.

  3. Watch for the following prompt to appear in the uBoot output:

    Enter Diagnostics Mode ['q'uick/'n'ormal (default)/e'x'tended]...

  4. Type q at this prompt to switch to quick uBoot.

    Quick uBoot will be executed for this boot only. The next time the SP is powered on or reset, default uBoot diagnostics will run.
