Flashing the Images Using the Program Flash Application

The Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC and Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC can be programmed using the Program Flash application, part of the Vivado® Design Suite. Make sure you have installed Vivado before proceeding with the steps below.

Disable the PCIe slot in BIOS settings using the iDRAC GUI.

Check if the target is detected. Make a note of the esn (50771B2161A9AA) and the deviceNr (2 for Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC and 4 for Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC). These values are used to program the image in the following steps.
