13.3 Common operation panel (COP)
13.3.1 Replacing the COP
Field Replaceable Unit
(FRU)
Hardware: 10 minutes
Software: 5 minutes
Tools: Phillips PH1 / (+) No. 1 screw driver
Note on system information backup/restore
The COP contains the Chassis ID EPROM that contains system information
like server name and model, housing type, serial number and manufacturing
data. To avoid the loss of non-default settings when replacing the system
board, a backup copy of important system configuration data is automatically
stored from the system board NVRAM to the Chassis ID EPROM.
CAUTION
For that reason the COP and the system board must not be replaced
simultaneously! In this case, restoring the system configuration data on
the system board would fail.
â–¶
Reconfigure the BIOS/iRMC and restore the system information like
server name, server model, housing type, serial number and
manufacturing data manually by Chassis ID Prom T
ool.
