Logic Board
Important: When replacing the logic board, make sure the board’s connectors fit through
the appropriate openings in the server’s back panel. Take special care to fit the clear
plastic system identifier button through its opening. (The system identifier button is located
low on the back panel, to the left of center.)
After installing a replacement logic board, be sure to transfer any PCI cards, risers, and
DIMMs to the new board. You must also remove the battery insulator tab from the battery
holder on the new board.
Note: Replacing the logic board in the server changes its Ethernet ID number. The new
number is printed on an Ethernet ID label packaged with the replacement logic board.
After installing the new logic board, cover the Ethernet ID number on the server’s serial
number with the new ID label.
