29. Have the customer complete the following steps:
a. Access the ASMI. For information about how to access the ASMI, see Chapter 5, "Accessing the
service processor," on page 27.
b. Click Power/Restart Control > Power On/Off System.
c. Change the Server firmware start policy setting to the value that was recorded in step 27 on page
89.
d. Click Save Settings and continue system server firmware boot.
30. Have the customer activate a VIOS partition by using one of the following methods:
a. If this system is managed by an FSM, see Activating a virtual server (http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/
infocenter/flexsys/information/topic/com.ibm.acc.psm.resources.doc/vs/sdmc_vs-
activating_vs.html).
b. If this system is managed by an HMC, see Activate (www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/
POWER7/p7ha1/smpactivate.htm).
c. If this system is managed by an IVM, see Activating logical partitions (http://www.ibm.com/
support/knowledgecenter/POWER7/p7hch/iphchactivatelpar.htm).
Press 1 while the partition is being activated to enter the SMS menu. See Starting the SMS utility
(http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/flexsys/information/topic/com.ibm.acc.7895.doc/
starting_sms.html). At the SMS main menu, click Select Boot Options and restore the boot device
order that is recorded in step 8 on page 85 of this procedure. Then, repeat this step for any
remaining VIOS partitions, if applicable.
31. Does the compute node have Fibre Channel adapters?
Yes
Have the customer complete the steps in the "Restore vfchost map data" on page 479 topic.
Then, continue with the next step.
Continue with the next step.
No
32. Have the customer reset the system date and time through the operating system that is installed.
For information, see the documentation for your operating system.
33. If the part was replaced because of a service action, verify the repair by checking that the amber
enclosure fault LED is off. For more information, see "Compute node control panel button and
LEDs" on page 9.
What to do next
After replacing the system-board and chassis assembly, you must either update the system with the latest
firmware or restore the pre-existing firmware.

Completing the installation

To complete the installation, you must install and close the compute node cover, install the compute node
into the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis, and turn on the compute node.
Procedure
1. Install and close the compute node cover. See "Installing and closing the compute node cover" on
page 34.
Statement 21
CAUTION:
Hazardous energy is present when the compute node is connected to the power source. Always
replace the compute node cover before you install the compute node.
