13.1 Safety notes
CAUTION
▶
When inserting the front panel module into the server, ensure not to
pinch or strain any connected cables.
▶
Circuit boards and soldered parts of internal options are exposed
and can be damaged by static electricity. Always discharge static
build-up (e.g. by touching a grounded object) before handling
electrostatic-sensitive devices (ESDs).
▶
Do not touch the circuitry on boards or soldered parts. Hold circuit
boards by their metallic areas or edges.

13.2 Replacing the front panel module
Field Replaceable Unit
(FRU)
Hardware: 10 minutes
Software: 5 minutes
Tools: flat screw driver (for the retention hooks)
Note on system information backup/restore
The front panel (front panel module, front panel board or front panel on QRL)
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.
