Usage Guidelines
- If the mainboard CPLD is abnormal and cannot be upgraded by using the upgrade command, you can run this command to upgrade the mainboard CPLD and forcibly make the upgrade take effect.
- Before running this command, use a file transfer tool supporting SFTP (such as WinSCP) to upload the upgrade file to the specified directory (for example, /tmp) of the iBMC file system.
- Running this command will forcibly reset the power supply of the server. Exercise caution when running this command.
