FIELD ENGINEER INSTRUCTIONS

WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE RESOLUTION ACTIVITY? :

* The server must be fully shut down and the power cords disconnected.
* Do not operate the system with empty slots. Always insert a filler panel into an empty slot to reduce the possibility of system shut down.
* Take ESD Precautions.
* If the motherboard unit and operator panel are replaced at the same time, the server may fail to operate correctly. Before starting the replacement of the next FRU, execute the showhardconf or showstatus command to verify that the component replaced earlier is operating correctly.
