If bent pins or foreign matters are found or the bonding pad is damaged, stop the operation and contact Huawei technical support. Horizontally holding the processor and heat sink, align the notched corner on the heat sink with the notched corner on the processor socket, and place the processor and heat sink downwards on the socket along the guide sleeves.
TPM. After replacing the TPM, configure the related settings on the BIOS again. For details, see Huawei Server Purley Platform BIOS Parameter Reference. l If a broken or disfigured screw is found on a TPM, take appropriate measures to protect data.
For details, see 3.2 Power-On Procedure. Step 11 Enable TPM. Access the BIOS interface. For details, see Huawei Server Purley Platform BIOS Parameter Reference. Select Security. Select TPM Operation and press Enter. Select Enable. Press F10. The system displays "Exit Saving changes?" dialog box is displayed.

10.1.2 Indicators and Buttons. Step 19 To burn the original SN into the new mainboard after replacement, contact Huawei engineers. If the original device SN is not burnt in the new mainboard, the iBMC and OS cannot obtain the device SN. This may affect the running of some services or the monitoring and management on the device.
If a fault occurs on a server, collect logs for fault diagnosis. Fault diagnosis Fault diagnosis rules and tools help Huawei technical support engineers and maintenance engineers to analyze and rectify faults according to alarms and hardware fault symptoms. Software and firmware upgrade Software and firmware upgrade packages can be downloaded by server model and installed as needed.
MM910 Management Module V100R001 User Guide. 7.3 iBMC Huawei intelligent Baseboard Management Controller (iBMC) is a Huawei proprietary intelligent system for remotely managing a server. The iBMC complies with IPMI 2.0 and SNMP standards and supports various functions, including KVM redirection, text console redirection, remote virtual media, and hardware monitoring and management.
OS. The BIOS also provides the advanced configuration and power interface (ACPI) and hot swap. The Huawei Purley-based server is developed based on Insyde code base and uses a proprietary BIOS. It provides a variety of in-band and out-of-band configuration functions as well as high scalability, and supports customization.
7 Software and Configuration Utilities 7.5 FusionServer Tools uMate uMate is a tool used in the acceptance, deployment, and maintenance scenarios of Huawei servers. It provides a GUI and CLI. uMate provides the inspection, log collection, firmware upgrade, and BIOS/BMC/HMM/RAID configuration functions and all functions support batch operations.
Personal Safety Only personnel certified or authorized by Huawei are allowed to install the hardware. Stop any operation that may cause personal injury or equipment damage, report the problem to a project supervisor immediately, and take protective measures.
The server supports one or two processors. If only one processor is required, install it in socket CPU1. The same model of processors must be used in a server. Contact your local Huawei sales representative or use the Intelligent Computing Compatibility Checker to determine the components to be used.
