Shutting down and removing a FortiSwitch-5003B board
To avoid potential hardware problems, always shut down the FortiSwitch-5003B
operating system properly before removing the FortiSwitch-5003B board from a chassis
slot or before powering down the chassis.
The following procedure describes how to correctly use the FortiSwitch-5003B mounting
components described in
“FortiSwitch-5003B mounting components” on page 20
to
remove a FortiSwitch-5003B board from an ATCA chassis slot.
FortiSwitch-5003B boards are hot swappable. The procedure for removing
a FortiSwitch-5003B board from a chassis slot is the same whether or not the chassis is
powered on.
To remove a FortiSwitch-5003B board from a chassis slot
To complete this procedure, you need:
• An ATCA chassis with a FortiSwitch-5003B board installed
• An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap with connection cord
1
Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an ESD socket or to a bare metal
surface on the chassis or frame.
2
Disconnect all cables from the FortiSwitch-5003B board, including all network cables
and the console cable.
3
Fully loosen the FortiSwitch-5003B retention screws.
4
Unlock the handles by squeezing the handle locks.
5
Slowly open both handles a small amount (about 8 degrees) until the IPM LED flashes
blue.
Do not carry the FortiSwitch-5003B board by holding the handles or retention screws.
When inserting or removing the FortiSwitch-5003B board from a chassis slot, handle the
board by the front panel. The handles are not designed for carrying the board. If the
handles become bent or damaged the FortiSwitch-5003B board may not align correctly
in the chassis slot.
FortiSwitch-5003B boards must be protected from static discharge and physical shock.
Only handle or work with FortiSwitch-5003B boards at a static-free workstation. Always
wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap when handling
FortiSwitch-5003B boards.
