Before You Begin
Important: Before performing removal and installation procedures, review the Sun Blade X4-2B Product Notes .
If necessary, back up BIOS and SP/ILOM configurations. For configuration back up options, refer to http://www.oracle.com/goto/x86AdminDiag/docs
For troubleshooting information, see Troubleshooting the Server Module.
You need a server module filler panel or a replacement server module or storage module. For more information, see Install Server Module Filler Panels.
