18. Remove the front bezel from the controller canister, carefully working it from side-to-side
until you can slide it off and gain access to the HIC.
19. Loosen the HIC thumbscrews that secure the HIC to the controller card.
20. Gently disengage the HIC from the controller card, and remove the HIC.
Note:

16.2 Installing the Host Interface Card in the Controller-Drive Tray
1. Install the new HIC by gently connecting the HIC to the HIC interface connector.
2. Install and tighten the four HIC thumbscrews that secure the HIC to the controller card.
Make sure that the seven-segment display ribbon cable is still connected to the
motherboard connector. If the ribbon cable is not connected, you must lift the center
piece of the motherboard connector, and insert the ribbon cable into the motherboard
connector.
NOTICE!
The ZIF socket is very fragile and is easily broken. Either use your fingers or a screwdriver to
gently pry the ZIF socket open.
NOTICE!
The front bezel can suddenly pop loose and cause damage to either the front bezel flex
harness or the zero insertion force (ZIF) socket that is attached to the controller card. Make
sure that you gently angle the front bezel away from the controller canister to allow access to
the HIC.
NOTICE!
You must place the HIC in the same location in the new controller canister, being careful not
to scratch or bump any of the components on the bottom of the HIC or the top of the
controller card.
NOTICE!
Make sure you have the correct host interface cards, Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP)
transceivers, and host bus adapters. If you are replacing one host interface card (HIC) with a
different type of HIC, you might not be able to reuse the SFP transceivers. For more
information, refer to the Hardware Cabling electronic document topics or to the PDF on the
SANtricity ES Storage Manager Installation DVD.
