Prepare the Server for Warm Service
This procedure describes how to prepare the server for warm service, so you can remove and
replace CMODs, DIMMs, and processors and heatsinks without disconnecting the power cords
or shutting down Oracle ILOM.
When Oracle ILOM detects that two fan modules in a single cooling zone (a vertical column)
have been removed, it removes power from the CMODs, allowing you to service CMODs and
their subcomponents without removing the power cords. Oracle ILOM remains available in
warm service mode.
This procedure uses a combination of the Oracle ILOM web and CLI interfaces. However, the
procedure can be performed using only the Oracle ILOM CLI interface (for more information,
refer to the Oracle ILOM documentation).
