Replacing The System Board - Lenovo HX3510-G Installation And Service Manual

Replacing the system board

Use this information to replace the system board.
Notes:
1. When you reassemble the components in the server, be sure to route all cables carefully so that they are
not exposed to excessive pressure.
2. When you replace the system board, you must either update the server with the latest firmware or
restore the pre-existing firmware from a diskette or CD image. Make sure that you have the latest
firmware or a copy of the pre-existing firmware before you proceed. See "Updating the firmware" on
page 33, "Updating the Universal Unique Identifier (UUID)" on page 44, and "Updating the DMI/SMBIOS
data" on page 46 for more information.
3. When you replace the system board, make sure that you remove the Integrated Management Module
Advanced Upgrade and place it on the new system board. For information about the Advanced
Upgrade, see "Using the remote presence and blue-screen capture features" on page 41.
Important: Some cluster solutions require specific code levels or coordinated code updates. If the device
is part of a cluster solution, verify that the latest level of code is supported for the cluster solution before
you update the code.
To install the system board, complete the following steps:
Step 1. Read the safety information that begins on "Safety" on page v, "Handling static-sensitive devices"
on page 103, and "Removing and replacing guidelines" on page 101.
Step 2. Align the system board with the slots on the side of the chassis and lower the right side into the
chassis first; then, lower the other side of the system board into the chassis.
