Working with options on the system board
This section provides information about system board options and
helps you to identify components on the system board. It also
provides instructions for installing, removing, and replacing system
board options, specifically system memory and microprocessors.
For information on adding and removing expansion adapters, see

Identifying parts on the system board
The system board, also called the planar or motherboard, is the main
circuit board in your server. It provides basic computer functions
and supports a variety of devices that are IBM-installed or that you
can install later.
If you plan to install, remove, or replace hardware in your server,
you will need to know the layout of the system board. The
following illustration shows the layout of the system board in your
server. The numbered pointers show the components that are
discussed in this book.
