Chapter 5
5. System and Serverboard Information
This chapter includes best practice procedures to work with a node board in the C2110G-RP5
chassis and understand the system PCIe expansion cards and hard disk drives. Use the information
in Chapter 6 to troubleshoot your server and add, remove, or replace system components.
A layout and quick reference chart is included in this chapter for your reference.
Some software products are protected with software license keys derived from the Media Access
Control (MAC) Ethernet address. If your system requires the replacement of a node board, the
MAC Ethernet address changes. If you are using such a product, you or your service representative
must request a new license key after replacement of a node board. Contact your local customer
support office:

Caution: Install the chassis cover after you have completed accessing the components inside the
server to maintain proper airflow and cooling for the system.
Handling Circuit Boards and Drives
Caution: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electrostatic-sensitive devices inside the
C2110G-RP5 server. Use the ESD precautions described below when you handle printed circuit
boards or other components in the system. The following measures are generally sufficient to
protect your equipment from electric static discharge.
