Subsystem Maintenance
5.1. Overview
5.1.1
Maintenance
Constant monitoring and maintenance of your GALAXY HDX2 subsystem
will minimize subsystem downtime and preserve the working integrity of
the system for a longer period of time. If any of the subsystem components
fail, they must be replaced as soon as possible.
WARNING!
Do not remove a failed component from the subsystem until you have a
replacement on hand. If you remove a failed component without replacing
it, the internal airflow will be disrupted and the system will overheat
causing damage to the subsystem.
All of the following components can be replaced in case of failure:
1.
Controller module
2.
Memory module
3.
BBU
4.
PSU module
5.
Cooling module
6.
Hard drive
5.1.2 General Notes on Component Replacement
•
With the exception of the RAID controller module, all of the
components on the GALAXY HDX2, including the PSU modules,
cooling modules, and drive trays, are hot-swappable and can be
changed while the subsystem is still in operation.
•
Qualified engineers who are familiar with the GALAXY HDX2
should be the only ones who make component replacements. If you
are not familiar with the GALAXY HDX2 or with RAID
