Information Update
This document updates information in your Dell PowerEdge 1550 and PowerApp 120
system documentation. It describes the following features:
•
Remote basic input/output system (BIOS) update

Dell Diagnostics dual in-line memory module (DIMM) isolation

Remote BIOS Update
Dell OpenManage™ IT Assistant provides a feature, Remote Flash BIOS, that allows
you to upgrade the BIOS of a remote system without being at that system. The cur-
rent BIOS release does not support this feature. You can download an updated BIOS
at http:\\support.dell.com.
Dell Diagnostics DIMM Isolation
You can use the Dell Diagnostics software to identify a defective DIMM; however, if
you installed four DIMMs with the same density, the software cannot identify which
DIMM is defective.
To isolate the defective DIMM, perform the following steps:
1.
Remove two DIMMs in the same bank, BANK_1 or BANK_2.
2.
Run the Dell Diagnostics memory test.
•
For PowerEdge systems, run the memory test from a diagnostics diskette
created from the Dell OpenManage Server Assistant CD or from the utility
partition.
•
For PowerApp systems, run the memory test from the Dell PowerApp
Resource CD.
