Part Replacement

About this task

To set the configurations for part replacement:

Steps

  1. Select the servers’ whose component you want to configure, and then click Part Replacement.

    NOTE: The option name expands to Configure Part Replacement when you hover over to Part Replacement.

    The Part Replacement Configuration window is displayed.
  2. You can set CSIOR, Part Firmware Update, and Part Configuration Update, to any of the following options, and then click Finish:

    • Collect System Inventory On Restart (CSIOR)—collects all the component information on every system restart.
      • Enabled—the software and hardware inventory information of the server components are automatically updated during every system restart.
      • Disabled—the software and hardware inventory information of the server components are not updated.
      • Do not change the value on the server—the existing server configuration is retained.
    • Part firmware update—restores, or upgrades, or downgrades the component firmware version based on the selection made.
      • Disabled—the part firmware update is disabled and the same is applied on the replaced component.
      • Allow version upgrade only—the upgraded firmware versions are applied on the replaced component, if the firmware version of the new component is earlier than the existing version.
      • Match firmware of replaced part—the firmware version on the new component is matched to the firmware version of the original component.
      • Do not change the value on the server—the existing configuration of the component is retained.
    • Part configuration update—restores or upgrades the component configuration based on the selection made.
      • Disabled—the part configuration update is disabled and the saved configuration of the old component is not applied on the replaced component.
      • Apply always—the part configuration update is enabled and the saved configuration of the old component is applied on the replaced component.
      • Apply only if firmware matches—the saved configuration of the old component is applied on the replaced component, only if their firmware versions match.
      • Do not change the value on the server—the existing configuration is retained.
