1Getting Started
The following important information must be adhered to for proper removal and
replacement of all Hewlett-Packard parts.
CAUTION This upgrade process should be performed by experienced hardware users
only.
Safety Warnings
WARNING Removing the device cover may expose sharp edges in the equipment
chassis. To avoid injury, use care when installing customer add-on
devices.
NOTE Before performing removal/replacement procedures, position the workstation
on a cushioned flat, stable surface, such as a table top or workbench.
NOTE Installing the recommended HP replacement part in your J6700 workstation
does not affect the regulatory and safety classifications or approvals listed in
the original owner’s guide.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
To prevent damage to the J6700 workstation, observe all of the following ESD precautions
while performing removal and replacement procedures:
• Remove all ESD-generating materials from the work area in which you will remove and
replace the workstation field replaceable unit(s).
• Open the ESD materials provided with the replacement part kit. Unfold the black
conductive sheeting (antistatic mat) and place it under a corner of the workstation.
• Wear a static strap to ensure that any accumulated electrostatic charge is discharged
from your body to ground. Attach the static-grounding wrist strap by following the
instructions on the package. Attach the sticky end of the wrist strap to bare metal on
the rear panel of the workstation.
• Connect all equipment together, including the static-free mat, static strap, clips
attached to the wrist strap, and peripheral units.

Preparing Your Workstation
Preparing Your Workstation
You must prepare your workstation before you install new upgrades or remove old
components. Here is the procedure for doing this:
1. Determine if you have the correct version of the operating system. Note that your workstation must
be running the HP-UX 11.0 operating system and the Workstation Additional Core Enchancements
(ACE) for HP-UX 11.0 (November 1999) or HP-UX 11i operating system and the Hardware
Enablement Bundle (HWE) for HP-UX 11i (June 2001) to accommodate the PA8700 upgrade. Use
the command uname -r to determine the version of your operating system. For example, it should
report B.11.00. if you are running an HP-UX 11.0 operating system. If the workstation is running
an older version of HP-UX, update the operating system software before continuing. Use the
command:
/usr/sbin/swlist -l bundle
to view what software products are loaded in your system. If the bundle list includes
B6261AA, HP-UX 11.0 with ACE (Nov., 1999), or HWEnable11i, HP-UX 11i with HWE
(June, 2001), you do not need to update HP-UX.
2. Determine the workstation’s LAN ID by entering the following command: /usr/sbin/lanscan.
The output is similar to the following:
Hardware Station Crd Hardware Net-Interface NM MAC HP DLPI Mjr
Path Address In# State NameUnit State ID Type Support Num
2.0.2 0x08000970ECC0 0 UP lan0 UP 4 ETHER YES 130
Record the LAN ID here. You will need it after installing the new system board:
Enter LAN ID: ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ -___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___
You must supply the dash (-) between the first six digits and the last six digits
After you install the new CPU board and power on the system for the first time, you may be prompted
for the LAN ID.

Safely Powering Down the J6700 Workstation
Safely Powering Down the J6700 Workstation
You must complete the following steps before performing any of the removal and
replacement procedures:
CAUTION Do not use the power supply interlock thumbscrew on the rear panel to power
down the workstation. This power down method may hang the operating
system in an unrecoverable state.
NOTE Remove any accessory bag(s) and their black tab screws, if present, from the
rear of the workstation. Remove any existing SCSI terminators.
1. Power off the workstation by simply pressing the power switch on the front panel of the
workstation. Also, power off the monitor and any attached peripheral devices.
If necessary, shut down the workstation by executing “shutdown -h” as user root.
This ensures that all programs are terminated and all data is saved before switching
the power off.
2. After 30 seconds, unplug the workstation’s power cord and all peripheral devices from
AC power outlets. Before attempting to move the workstation to a disassembly area,
disconnect all peripherals from the back of the system.
3. Place the workstation on a flat, stable surface, such as a tabletop or floor. To protect
against scratches, remove miscellaneous debris from the work surface.

workstations.
Chapter Overview
Here are the main sections in this chapter:
• Front Bezel and Top Panel
• Bezel-Label Strip
• LCD Panel
• Hard Disk Drives
• Hard disk Drive Backplane
• CD ROM Drive
• Memory DIMMs
• Power Supply
• PCI Cage
• PCI Backplane

WARNING For most of the removal and replacement procedures in this chapter,
you must power off the workstation and unplug the workstation
power cord from the AC power outlet. The exceptions to this are the
removal and replacement of DIMMs and the PCI cage. For these you
only need to power off the workstation.
NOTE To maintain FCC/EMI compliance, verify that all covers are replaced and
that all screws are properly seated.

Component Remove/Replacement
Component Removal and Replacement
Component Removal and Replacement
The procedures in this section describe how to remove the components from your
workstation. You can follow the same procedures in reverse to replace or install new
accessories or components. Observe the electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions and the
prerequisites for removing and replacing components or accessories as discussed in
Chapter 1. Also, read any NOTEs, CAUTIONs, and WARNINGs in each component or
accessory removal and replacement procedures.
Front Bezel and Top Cover
This section describes how to remove and replace the J6700 workstation’s front bezel and
top cover.
Note that you can perform certain operations, like removing and replacing hard disk
drives, simply removing the front bezel of the workstation. Other operations require more
access to the interior of the workstation, so you will need to remove the front bezel or top
panel to perform those procedures.
CAUTION The system will not operate with the top panel removed.
