Restoration of Product/Chassis Information when Replacing
Mother Board
5.1
Overview
The product information (e.g., model name) of the server and chassis information (e.g., chassis type and
designation number) is recorded in the non-volatile memory of the motherboard. Product information
and chassis information suitable for the server is recorded at shipment.
The current motherboard may need to be replaced in the field. However, the memory of a replacement
motherboard contains provisional product information and chassis information, which is usually not
suitable for the target server. When replacing the motherboard, restore the product information and
chassis information into the new motherboard according to the procedure below. In general, restore
the information by performing the procedure shown in "5.2 Restoration Procedure 1 (Backup and
Restoration)".
If replacing the motherboard without making a backup copy of the information, restore the information
by performing the procedure shown in "5.3 Restoration Procedure 2 (With No Backup Copy)".
