4.5 Rolling BIOS and On-line Updates
The Online Update nomenclature refers to the ability to update the BIOS while the server is
online and in operation, as opposed to taking the server out of operation while performing a
BIOS update. The rolling BIOS nomenclature refers to the capability of having two copies of
BIOS: the current one in use, and a second BIOS to which an updated BIOS version can be
written. When ready, the system can roll forward to the new BIOS. In case of a failure with the
new version, the system can roll back to the previous version.
