Installing and Removing the Server Board
Note: Some software products are protected with software license keys derived from the
Media Access Control (MAC) ethernet address. When you swap a server board, the MAC
ethernet address changes. If you are using such a product, you must request a new license
key after swapping the server board. Contact your local customer support office:
