Environment

Intel® Server Board S2600WFT Firmware version installed: 02.01.0013 Intel® Xeon® Gold 6209U Processor

Description

Having problems detecting additional boot options in Boot Manager at the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) for the Intel® Server Board S2600WF but UEFI Shell.

The system worked fine under Firmware version 02.01.0012. The problem starts after the firmware update to the version (02.01.0013).

Resolution

It is recommended to proceed with a Clear CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) by using the Jumper method. The following instructions can be found at the Intel® Server Board S2600WF Product Family Technical Product Specification on section 11.1 BIOS Default Jumper Block: 

  1. Power down the server and unplug the power cord(s).
  2. Remove the system top cover and move the BIOS DFLT jumper from pins 1-2 (normal operation) to pins 2-3 (set BIOS defaults).
  3. Wait five seconds then move the jumper back to pins 1-2.
  4. Re-install the system top cover.
  5. Re-Install system power cords.
    Note

    The system automatically powers on after AC is applied to the system.

  6. During POST, press F2 to access the BIOS setup utility to configure and save desired BIOS options.

After resetting BIOS options using the BIOS default jumper, the Error Manager Screen in the BIOS setup utility displays two errors:

  • 0012 System RTC date/time not set
  • 5220 BIOS Settings reset to default settings


Also, the system time and date may need to be reset.
