I reinstalled two controllers back into our E830F.
Via serial, it looks like neither one is booting up properly. From the each of them:
Controller 1================================================
Version 2.00.1201. Copyright (C) 2009 American Megatrends, Inc.
Ex30_SBB BIOS ver. 0.19.0000.30

Controller 2================================================
Version 2.00.1201. Copyright (C) 2009 American Megatrends, Inc.
Ex30_SBB BIOS ver. 0.19.0000.37

Ex30_SBB BIOS ver. 0.19.0000.37

Controller rev:A6[33]
92

=========================================================
On at least one of the controllers (probably both) before it says '92' is says 'B4', short pause, '99' and then '92'.
...and then they just sit here. I cannot press enter from the serial app (putty) to get any sort of response on either controller.
About the lights on back of controllers: the expected red for each SFP+ port since no fibre is connected.
When I reseat the controllers, the (health? light with a check) is bright red (which is what I expect upon reseating). It never turns green and then goes dark. This takes a few seconds. This happens on both controllers.
I swapped the controllers with the slot in the classis and nothing changes.
Is there a way to factory reset these controllers? Previously they were working fine in this chassis.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thank you.
