Solution  1006858.1 :   OBP/SC parameters are reset after replacing motherboard  


PreviouslyPublishedAs

Description
To inform the Field organizations (Support Vendor, Re-Seller, &c.) that the OBP/SC parameters will be reset to factory default after replacing the motherboard.

Steps to Follow
On V210/V240, if the system board is replaced from a PN to a different PN, one cannot login the ALOM console using a user name that was set-up previously. This is due to the parameters on SCC are reset by ALOM. Thus, it is a must to set the SCC parameters again.

    --  Replace from failed M/B to the same PN :  Login OK
--  Replace from failed M/B to different PN : Login FAILED
As these customized user information are stored in the SCC, these SCC data is reset by ALOM after the system board replacement.  The reason being: The SCC is tied to the PN of the system board.
When replacing the system board with a different PN, the ALOM thinks the SCC is too different and issues a "set-defaults" to it.  This causes the lost of data that stored in SCC previously.  Therefore, after the replacement of the system board, the CU has to re-enter the users, passwords and other parameters.
This symptom was original found replacing 375-3122 with 375-3150.
