Complete the parts replacement

Use this information to complete the parts replacement.

To complete the parts replacement, do the following:

  1. Ensure that all components have been reassembled correctly and that no tools or loose screws are left inside your server.

  2. Properly route and secure the cables in the server. Refer to the cable connecting and routing information for each component.

  3. If you have removed the server cover, reinstall it. See Install the compute node cover.

  4. Reconnect external cables and power cords to the server.
    Attention
    To avoid component damage, connect the power cords last.

  5. Update the server configuration.

    • Download and install the latest device drivers: Lenovo Data Center Support

    • Update the system firmware. See Firmware updates.

    • Update the UEFI configuration.

    • Reconfigure the disk arrays if you have installed or removed a hot-swap drive or a RAID adapter. See the Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager User Guide, which is available for download at: Lenovo Data Center Support

Note
Make sure the latest version of ThinkSystem M.2 with Mirroring Enablement Kit Firmware is applied to avoid virtual disk/array missing after system board replacement.
