Function 73: Factory reset

Function 73 initiates a full reset of server firmware and service processor firmware settings, reverting the configuration of the entire system back to factory default settings. All the information about the partition, network settings, and other important customer settings will be reset, and then the service processor will be rebooted. This function is available only when the platform is powered off. This function is only available in manual operating mode and when customer extended (CE) function ranges have been enabled.

The following table shows an example of how to implement a factor reset.
