8. Access the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI).
The ASMI is the interface to the service processor. Use the ASMI to complete general and
administrator-level service tasks, such as reading service processor error logs, reading vital product
data, setting up the service processor, and controlling the system power. The ASMI is also referred to
as the service processor menus. To access the ASMI, see Accessing the Advanced System
Management Interface (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER8/p8ect/
pxect_accessasmi.htm). After you access the ASMI, continue with the next step.
9. Check and record the System Enclosure Type and Feature Code. The enclosure serial number is a
seven-digit number that is printed on a bar-coded label on the system unit. Note: The feature code
number for the 8247-42L, 8286-41A, or 8286-42A system backplane is 78C9-001.
10. Check and record the server settings.
Before you replace this field-replaceable unit (FRU), check and record all server settings since you
might need to update the system after you replace this FRU. This update can be done through the
ASMI.
a. Check and record the server firmware level that is indicated on the right edge of the status
frame, the area where the log out button is located. You might need to update the system to the
latest server firmware code level after you replace this FRU.
b. Check and record the service processor settings that you previously set by using the ASMI. You
will need to reset these service processor settings after you update this FRU, or the default
settings will be used. It is recommended you record these settings, however you might not need
to reenter all of them after you replace this FRU.
