3. If the compute node has logical partitions, save all the data in each logical partition and shut down
the operating system of each partition of the compute node. Do not remove the compute node from
the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis at this time.
4. Access the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI).
If you are already connected to the ASMI, go to step 5.
v To access the ASMI through the IBM Flex System Manager (FSM), see http://
publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/flexsys/information/topic/com.ibm.acc.psm.hosts.doc/
dpsm_managing_hosts_launch_asm.html.
v To access the ASMI through the Hardware management (HMC), complete the following steps:
a. Select the server that you are working with.
b. Click Tasks > Operations > Launch Advanced System Management (ASM).
v If you do not have a management console, access ASMI by using a web interface. For more
information, see Chapter 5, "Accessing the service processor," on page 25.
5. Save the system identifiers.
Note: To complete this operation, your authority level must be administrator or authorized service
provider. For information about ASMI authority levels, see http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/
powersys/v3r1m5/topic/p7hby/asmiauthority.htm.
a. In the ASM Welcome pane, if you have not already logged in, specify your user ID and
password, and click Log In.
b. In the navigation area, select System Configuration > Program Vital Product Data > System
Brand.
c. Manually record the value for the system brand, which will is displayed in the right pane.
d. In the navigation area, select System Configuration > Program Vital Product Data > System
Keywords.
e. Manually record the Machine type-model, System serial number, System unique ID values,
Reserved, and RB keyword0.
f. In the navigation area, select System Configuration > Program Vital Product Data > System
Enclosures.
g. In the right pane, select the Enclosure location: UXXXX.YYY.ZZZZ and click Continue.
h. Manually record the values of Enclosure location, Feature Code/Sequence Number, Enclosure
serial number, and Reserved.
6. Turn off the compute node and remove the compute node from the IBM Flex System Enterprise
Chassis. See "Removing the compute node from an IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis" on page 29.
7. Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface, with the cover side up.
8. Open and remove the compute node cover. See "Removing the compute node cover" on page 31.
9. If an I/O expansion card is in the first slot, remove it to access the management card.
Note: You can use the system-board LEDs and the service label that is located on the inside of the
cover to identify the management card that must be replaced. See "System-board LEDs" on page 13.
