Flashing Riverbed Ex-560 to R210 ii BIOS & Password & IDRAC6 resets

  1. Use Rufus to make a bootable freedos USB
  2. Download the latest r210ii bios – https://dl.dell.com/FOLDER04826304M/1/PER210II_020900.exe and put it on the USB you just made
  3. Boot the server up and boot to the USB
  4. Execute the following 
per210ii_020900 -wipeclean -forcetype

Your server should now be flashing and it will reboot shortly

If you need to have the password for the BIOS and the IDRAC password reset , then you will need to open up the case. Locate the CMOS battery and then change the following jumper (at 7 oclock position of the battery and right of the four colour plug).

Power on the server and all the password should be gone.

Revert the jumper back to original position once done.
