How to Remove the IDPROM Module

This section explains how to remove a functioning ID programable read-only
memory (IDPROM) module so that you can install it on a new PCI riser board,
thereby preserving the system's host ID information. If you are replacing a defective
IDPROM module and want to retain the same host ID, consult your authorized Sun
sales representative or service provider for assistance with programming the new
IDPROM module with the existing host ID and Ethernet address.
