5.2.2 Verifying system information backup / restore
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. After replacing the
system board the backup data is restored from the Chassis ID board to the new
system board.
In order to verify whether the backup or restore process has been successful,
check the System Event Log (SEL) using the ServerView Operations Manager
(see also section "Viewing and clearing the System Event Log (SEL)" on
page 76).
After replacing the system board
Ê Check the SEL log files as described in section "Viewing and clearing the
System Event Log (SEL)" on page 76 to verify whether the backup data on
the Chassis ID EPROM has been restored to the system board:
Chassis IDPROM: Restore successful
After replacing the Chassis ID EPROM
I In case of the PRIMERGY CX2550 M1 server, the Chassis ID EPROM
is integrated on the chassis interface board.
Ê Check the SEL log files as described in section "Viewing and clearing the
System Event Log (SEL)" on page 76 to verify whether a backup copy of the
system board settings has been transferred to the Chassis ID EPROM:
Chassis IDPROM: Backup successful
5.2.3 Updating RAID controller firmware
After replacing the RAID controller, it is essential to upgrade the firmware to the
latest version. The latest RAID controller firmware version is available from the
Fujitsu support web pages at:
http://ts.fujitsu.com/support/ (EMEA market)
http://jp.fujitsu.com/platform/server/primergy/downloads/ (Japanese market)
I Fujitsu does not assume responsibility for any damage done to the
server or for the loss of any data resulting from firmware updates.
For the Japanese market, follow the instructions provided separately.
