Replacing the Disk I/O Card
NOTE:
The Disk I/O Card is hot-swappable.
1
Locate and verify which is the faulty Disk I/O card.
2
Remove the Fibre Channel data cables from the transceiver(s) that are to be
removed. Insert the dust covers on the data cable connector(s). This will
protect the optics.
3
Each transceiver model has a slightly different mechanism for ejection. Refer
to the illustration below and note the model you have.
4
Using the ejector, release the transceiver and pull it from the SFP cage.
a
The type A model uses a pivoting mechanism. Use the edge of your
finger tip or the finger nail to engage the ejector and pull towards you.
This will release the transceiver.
b
The type B model uses a similar mechanism to the type A except it
rotates about a pivot point. Use the edge of your finger tip or the finger
nail to engage the ejector and pull towards you. This will release the
transceiver.
c
The type C model uses a pull tab to eject the transceiver. Grasp and pull
the tab to release the transceiver.
