Removing the system board
Before you remove the system board from the server, take the following steps to
save data, firmware, and configuration data:
v
Record all system configuration information, such as IMM IP addresses, vital
product data, and the machine type, model number, serial number, Universally
Unique Identifier, and asset tag of the server.
v Using the Advanced Settings Utility (ASU), save the system configuration to
external media.
v
Save the system-event log to external media.
Note:
1.
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.
2. Before you replace the system board, make sure that you backup any features
on demand (FoD) keys that were enabled. Remember to re-enable the features
on demand (FoD) keys after installing the new system board. For more
information on Features on Demand (FoD), including instructions for
automating the activation and installation of the activation key by using IBM
ToolsCenter or IBM Systems Director, see the IBM Features on Demand User’s
Guide at http://www.ibm.com/systems/x/fod/ under the Help section.
To remove the system board, complete the following steps:
1. Read the safety information that begins in Safety and “Installation guidelines”
on page 36.
2.
Turn off the server (see “Turning off the server” on page 24) and all attached
peripheral devices. Disconnect all power cords; then, disconnect all external
cables from the server.
3. Carefully turn the server on its side so that it is lying flat, with the cover
facing up.
Attention: Do not allow the server to fall over.
4. Unlock and remove the left-side cover (see “Removing the left-side cover” on
page 39).
5. Remove the air baffle (see “Removing the air baffle” on page 41)
6.
Remove all fan assemblies (see “Removing the fan assembly” on page 42)
7. Remove all PCI riser-card assemblies with the adapters in them (see
Removing a PCI riser-card assembly and “Removing an adapter” on page
358).
8. Disconnect all cables from the system board. Make a list of each cable as you
disconnect it; you can then use this as a checklist when you install the new
system board.
9. Remove the DIMMs from the system board and set them aside on a
static-protective surface for reinstallation (see “Removing a memory module”
on page 403).
Note:
Make a note of the location of each DIMM as you remove it, so that
you can later reinstall it in the same connector.
10. Remove the microprocessor 2 expansion board (see “Removing the
microprocessor 2 expansion board” on page 422).
11. Remove the existing microprocessor and heat sink (see “Removing a
microprocessor and heat sink” on page 416).
