sides snap into place.
3. Connect the IDE cable to the back of the drive.
4. Replace the top metal cover.
5. Reconnect the power and external cables and power on the server.
6. Verify the drive replacement by using the utilities identified in Appendix C (page 141).
• Load removable media and access to verify operation.
• To verify operation, use the iLO MP commands.
• Use diagnostics provided by the ODE to exercise the module replaced.
Removing and Replacing the MP Card
The MP card is the hardware that provides a way to connect to a server and perform
administration or monitoring tasks for the server. The iLO is the firmware that provides the way
for the MP to communicate as an independent support system for the server.
Removing the MP Card
1. Record the network settings from your MP card before beginning this task.
2. Power off the server, disconnect all power and external cables and remove the top metal
cover.
3. Unscrew the two internal mounting screws that connect the MP card to the internal chassis
post.
