Replacing a SCSI I/O module
Before you begin
CAUTION:
•
Before removing a component or blank from an operational device, make sure that you have the
replacement part or blank available. Removing a component or blank impacts the air
fl
ow pattern
and cooling ability of the device. Allow approximately 30 seconds before installing the new or
replacement component to ensure that con
fi
guration data about the removed component is cleared
from the system registry, but, to avoid possible overheating, insert the new or replacement component
within one or two minutes. If the internal temperature exceeds acceptable limits, the device may
overheat and automatically shut down or restart.
•
Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Use proper anti-static protection.
Verifying component failure
Before replacing the SCSI I/O module:
•
Verify that the module Status LED is off or is blinking amber.
•
Check the array controller LCD display panel for error messages.
Removing the SCSI I/O module

NOTE:
Before removing the SCSI I/O module, label all cables. This ensures their reconnection in
the correct con
fi
guration.
