Factory Reset Lenovo Node

Hi,
Is it possible to factory reset legacy lenovo nodes with version 3.7.7? The objective is to create new cluster after nodes reset.

Regards

There is an interoperability guide for Lenovo that shows 3.7.7 depending on what firmware the lenovo is at- InteropGuides/PSI15/Lenovo/P12934-001b-hpe-simplivity-omnistack-interop-guide-lenovo-377_2019.pdf

My thought would be as long as every thing is up to snuff, you could factory reset a node to any level that would be apropriate. You either have the iso on a USB in the back to boot from or you tell it to boot from a virtual cd.

Hello @RicT1

To add to what Mike already explained, checking the Interoperability guide it says the Lenovo systems are compatible for deployment with 3.7.7

Check this document on page 12 for details:
