Installing
StorageWorks
Fixed Disks If you purchased a StorageWorks RAID Array 200 Subsystem
with your computer (which includes the SWXCR-Ex controller),
you can ‘‘hot swap’’ drives, that is, you can install or replace
drives without first shutting down the operating system or
powering down the server hardware.
For more information, see StorageWorks RAID Array 200
Subsystem Family Installation and Configuration Guide,
EK-SWRA2-IG.
If your StorageWorks drives are not plugged into the RAID
subsystem, shut down the operating system before swapping a
drive. However, you do not need to power down the server before
installing the drive.
Installation Procedure
To install a StorageWorks disk drive:
1. If your StorageWorks drives are plugged into the RAID
subsystem, go to step 2. If your drives are not plugged into
the RAID subsystem, shut down the operating system before
you go to step 2.
2. Remove a blank bezel by pressing the two mounting tabs and
pull the bezel out of the shelf.
3. Insert the hard-disk drive into the guide slots and push it in
until the tabs lock in place.
Figure 3–8 shows how to install hard-disk drives in a
StorageWorks shelf.
