Installing The Tier 2 Management Card - IBM power PS700 Problem Determination And Service Manual

Installing the tier 2 management card

You can install this tier 2 CRU yourself or request IBM to install it, at no additional charge, under the
type of warranty service that is designated for the blade server. Use this procedure to install the
management card into the currently installed system board. If you are also installing a new system board,
you must complete this procedure before installing the new system board.
Attention: Replacing the management card and the system board at the same time might result in the
loss of vital product data (VPD) and information concerning the number of active processor cores. If the
management card and system board must both be replaced, replace them one at a time. For further
assistance, contact your next level of support.
To install the management card, complete the following steps.
