Installing the system board
Note: When you reassemble the components in the server, be sure to route all cables carefully so that they
are not exposed to excessive pressure.
Notes:
1. When you reassemble the components in the server, be sure to route all cables carefully so that they
are not exposed to excessive pressure.
2. When you replace the system board, you must either update the server with the latest firmware or restore
the pre-existing firmware that the customer provides on a diskette or CD image. Make sure that you
have the latest firmware or a copy of the pre-existing firmware before you proceed. See “Updating the
firmware” on page 211 “Updating the Universal Unique Identifier (UUID)” on page 168 “Updating the
DMI/SMBIOS data” on page 170 for more information.
Important: Some cluster solutions require specific code levels or coordinated code updates. If the device is
part of a cluster solution, verify that the latest level of code is supported for the cluster solution before you
update the code
