Replacing the MAX5 system-board tray assembly

To replace the system-board tray, complete the following steps:
Note:
1. When you reassemble the components in the MAX5, be sure to route all cables
carefully so that they are not exposed to excessive pressure.
2. When you replace the system-board tray, make sure that host server firmware
is at the latest level (See "Updating the firmware" on page 397).
Attention: Installing the wrong firmware or device-driver update might cause
the server to malfunction. Before you install a firmware or device-driver
update, read any readme and change history files that are provided with the
downloaded update. These files contain important information about the
update and the procedure for installing the update, including any special
procedure for updating from an early firmware or device-driver version to the
latest version.
3. Before you attach a MAX5 to the server and try to use it, you must update the
server firmware with the latest level of firmware or code. If you attach and try
to use the MAX5 without updating the server firmware, you might get
unexpected system behavior or the server might not power on. For special
instructions to follow before you attach the MAX5 to the server, go to

382).

system-board tray with the chassis.
