Any write or edit actions executed on the BMM node(s) will require users to ['reimage'](./howto-baremetal-functions.md) in order to restore Microsoft support to the impacted BMM node(s).

There are rare situations where a user needs to investigate & resolve issues with a bare metal machine and all other ways via Azure are exhausted. Azure Operator Nexus provides the `az networkcloud cluster baremetalmachinekeyset` command so users can manage SSH access to these bare metal machines. On keyset creation, users are validated against Microsoft Entra ID for proper authorization by cross referencing the User Principal Name provided for a user against the supplied Microsoft Entra Group ID `--azure-group-id <Entra Group ID>`.

## Reimage a BMM

You can restore the runtime version on a BMM by executing the `reimage` command. This process **redeploys** the runtime image on the target BMM and executes the steps to rejoin the cluster with the same identifiers. This action doesn't affect the tenant workload files on this BMM.

You can restore the runtime version on a BMM by executing `reimage` command. This process **redeploys** the runtime image on the target BMM and executes the steps to rejoin the cluster with the same identifiers. This action doesn't impact the tenant workload files on this BMM. In the event of a write or edit action being performed on the node via BMM access, this 'reimage' action is required to restore Microsoft support and the changes will be lost, restoring the node to it's expected state.

As a best practice, make sure the BMM's workloads are drained using the [`cordon`](#make-a-bmm-unschedulable-cordon)

command, with `evacuate "True"`, before executing the `reimage` command.
