5.3.2 Verifying system information backup or 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 "Viewing and clearing the System Event Log (SEL)" on page 104.

After replacing the system board

▶

Check the SEL log files to verify whether the backup data on the Chassis ID

EPROM has been restored to the system board, see "Viewing and clearing

the System Event Log (SEL)" on page 104.

Chassis IDPROM: Motherboard Exchange detected

Chassis IDPROM: BMC FW restore successful

Chassis IDPROM: BIOS restore successful

For replacing the system board, the BIOS has an automatic restore

after replacing the system board, you must manually change the

settings.
