2.4 Swapping a System Configuration Card
Between Servers
2.4.1 Swapping a System Configuration Card Between
Servers
Caution – Never remove the system configuration card while the server is booting
or running the Solaris OS. Either remove power from the server, or put it into
Standby mode, before removing or inserting the system configuration card.
Caution – Do not handle the system configuration card unless you need to transfer
it to another system. If you need to handle it for this reason, avoid contact with the
gold terminals on the underside of the card.
Caution – If you remove the system configuration card (SCC) and replace it with
the SCC from a system of a different platform type, the card will be reconfigured. A
message tells you when this has been done, but the system does not request
confirmation before reformatting the card.
1. Power down both servers.

cards.

5. Replace the cable tie on the new system.
