Attention: The drive startup sequence in the computer you are servicing might have been changed. Be extremely careful during write operations such as copying, saving, or formatting. If you select an incorrect drive, data or programs can be overwritten. Important notice for replacing a system board Some components mounted on a system board are very sensitive. Improper handling of a system board can cause damage to those components, and may cause a system malfunction. Attention: When handling a system board: • Do not drop a system board or apply any excessive force to it. • Avoid rough handling of any kind. • Avoid bending a system board and hard pushing to prevent cracking at each BGA (Ball Grid Array) chipset. How to use error message Use the error codes displayed on the screen to diagnose failures. If more than one error code is displayed, begin the diagnosis with the first error code. Whatever causes the first error code might also cause false error codes. If no error code is displayed, see whether the error symptom is listed in the "Symptom-to-FRU Index" section. Strategy for replacing FRUs for CTO, CMV, and GAV Product definition Dynamic Configure To Order (CTO) This provides the ability for a customer to configure a Lenovo solution from an eSite, and have this configuration sent to fulfillment, where it is built and shipped directly to the customer. The machine label and eSupport will load these products as the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where model = "CTO" (Example: 1829-CTO). Custom Model Variant (CMV) This is a unique configuration that has been negotiated between Lenovo and the customer. A unique 4-digit MT and 3-digit model is provided to the customer to place orders (Example: 1829-W15). A CMV is a special bid offering. Therefore, it is NOT generally announced. • The MTM portion of the machine label is the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where model = "CTO" (Example: 1829-CTO). The PRODUCT ID portion of the machine label is the 4-digit MT and 3-digit CMV model (Example: 1829-W15). • eSupport will show both the CTO and CMV machine type models (Example: 1829-CTO and 1829-W15 will be found on the eSupport site.) General Announce Variant (GAV) This is a standard model (fixed configuration). GAVs are announced and offered to all customers. The MTM portion of the machine label is a 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where model = a "fixed part number", not "CTO" (Example: 1829-F1U). Also, eSupport will list these products under the same fixed model number. FRU identification for CTO, CMV, and GAV products There are three information resources to identify which FRUs are used to support CTO, CMV, and GAV products. These sources are PEW, eSupport, and the HMM. 24 Hardware Maintenance Manual

Product definition
Dynamic Configure To Order (CTO)
This provides the ability for a customer to configure a Lenovo solution from an eSite, and have this
configuration sent to fulfillment, where it is built and shipped directly to the customer. The machine label and
eSupport will load these products as the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where model = “CTO” (Example:
1829-CTO).
Custom Model Variant (CMV)
This is a unique configuration that has been negotiated between Lenovo and the customer. A unique 4-digit
MT and 3-digit model is provided to the customer to place orders (Example: 1829-W15). A CMV is a special
bid offering. Therefore, it is NOT generally announced.
•
The MTM portion of the machine label is the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where model = “CTO”
(Example: 1829-CTO). The PRODUCT ID portion of the machine label is the 4-digit MT and 3-digit CMV
model (Example: 1829-W15).
•
eSupport will show both the CTO and CMV machine type models (Example: 1829-CTO and 1829-W15
will be found on the eSupport site.)
General Announce Variant (GAV)
This is a standard model (fixed configuration). GAVs are announced and offered to all customers. The MTM
portion of the machine label is a 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where model = a “fixed part number”, not
“CTO” (Example: 1829-F1U). Also, eSupport will list these products under the same fixed model number.
FRU identification for CTO, CMV, and GAV products
There are three information resources to identify which FRUs are used to support CTO, CMV, and GAV
products. These sources are PEW, eSupport, and the HMM.
