MAC/WWN/GUID and SAS addresses will be changed by replacing an
expansion card or by replacing the system board. Inform the customer
about that before starting these tasks. After doing these tasks, inform
the customer about the changed MAC/WWN/GUID and SAS addresses.
Notes on network settings recovery
When replacing network controllers or the system board, network
configuration settings in the OS will be lost and replaced by default
values. This applies to all static IP address and LAN teaming
configurations.
Ensure to note down your current network settings before replacing a
network controller or the system board.
If the SAS controller or FC card has an ETERNUS connection and the
SAS host (SAS address) or WWN is registered on the ETERNUS side,
contact the customer to reconfigure the host affinity on the ETERNUS
side (reassociate the server with ETERNUS) after replacing the SAS
controller or FC card.
