INTRODUCTION

Overview

This guide demonstrates how to replace the BIOS ROM chip in an Open Compute V2 server. ==Acronyms and Terms == * BIOS - Basic Input/Output System * SATA - Serial ATA * ROM - Read-Only Memory * SFP+ - Enhanced Small Form-factor Pluggable; a type of data communicationstransceiver.

Step 1 — BIOS ROM Chip Replacement

The server can be powered offremotely or on the hardware itself.

Remote Power Down: Login to theserver to power it off.

shutdown -h now;exit

Hardware Power Down: Press andhold the power switch for at leastthree seconds, as annotated.

Step 2

Press the button on the server sled release lever and pull the lever.

This unlocks the sled from the chassis.

Step 3 — Disconnect Peripheral Cables

Disconnect the 10G SFP+ cable from the network interface controller.

Disconnect the SATA / power cables connected to the boot hard disk drive.

Node 1 (right-most sled) boot drive is the top drive in the chassis. Node 0 (left-most sled) bootdrive is the bottom drive in the chassis.

Disconnecting the SATA / power cable can be performed on either the motherboard or HDD endof server node 1 . However, the SATA / power cable must be disconnected from themotherboard end on node 0.

Step 4

Pull the server sled from thechassis.

Step 5

Place the server sled on a worksurface.

Step 6 — Access the BIOS Chip

Locate and identify the BIOS ROM chip on the system motherboard.

The BIOS ROM chip is located just below the CPU 0 heatsink. BIOS ROM is printed next on theBIOS ROM chip socket on the motherboard.

Lift the BIOS ROM chip cover.

Step 7

Note the orientation of the BIOSROM chip.

Important: A small orientationmark is printed near PIN 1 on theBIOS ROM chip. Note thisorientation as the new BIOS chipwill need to be installed in thesame way.

You may also use themotherboard's silkscreen todetermine the BIOS ROMchip's PIN 1 position.

Step 8

Use tweezers (or a similar tool) toextract the BIOS chip from themotherboard.

Step 9 — Obtain a 3B10 Chip

Obtain a new BIOS ROM chip.

Place the BIOS ROM chip in the BIOS ROM chip socket.

Make sure the BIOS chip has properly seated in the BIOS socket. The BIOS chip should befirmly seated, and not loose.

Important: Ensure the orientation of the new BIOS chip reflects the old orientation (based onthe circle polarity indicator).

Close the BIOS ROM chip cover.

Step 10

Slide the server back into the rack.

Connect the peripheral cables (SATA / power and networking) that were previously disconnected.

Step 11

Power on the server.
