Install the Motherboard

This is a cold-service procedure that must be performed by qualified service personnel. Power
down the server completely before performing this procedure.
Caution - This procedure requires that you handle components that are sensitive to ESD which
can cause server components to fail.
When replacing the motherboard, remove the SPM and SCC PROM from the old motherboard
and install these components on the new motherboard. The SPM contains the Oracle ILOM
system configuration data, and the SCC PROM contains the system host ID and MAC address.
Transferring these components preserves the system-specific information stored on these
modules. Whenever you replace the motherboard or the SPM, you must update the firmware so
the portions of firmware in the SPM and on the motherboard are consistent.
