## Install the Main Module Motherboard

1. Install the system configuration PROM from the old motherboard onto the replacement motherboard.

   See Install the System Configuration PROM.

2. Replace these components on the main module:

   - Install a Storage Backplane

   - Install the Front I/O Assembly

   - Install the System Battery

   - Install the Service Processor Card

   - Install the RAID Expansion Module

   - Install a Hard Drive

   Install the components in the same slots that you removed them from in the old main module to keep from having to reinstall software on these components.

3. Insert the main module back into the server.

   See Install the Main Module.

4. Connect a terminal or a terminal emulator (PC or workstation) to serial management port.

   If the service processor detects that the new host firmware component is incompatible with service processor firmware component, further action is suspended and the following message is delivered over the serial management port:

       Unrecognized Chassis: This module is installed in an unknown or
       unsupported chassis. You must upgrade the firmware to a newer
       version that supports this chassis.

   If you see this message, go on to Step 5.

5. Download the system firmware.
   1. If needed, configure the service processor's network port to enable the firmware image to be downloaded.

      Refer to the Oracle ILOM documentation for network configuration instructions.

   2. Download the system firmware.

      Follow the firmware download instructions in the Oracle ILOM documentation.

      Note - You can load any supported system firmware version, including the firmware revision that had been installed prior to the replacement of the motherboard.

6. Verify the main module motherboard.

   See Verify Main Module Motherboard Functionality.
