Removing the SAN Volume Controller 2145-8G4 operator-information panel
assembly
You might have to remove the operator-information panel assembly on a SAN Volume Controller
2145-8G4 due to required maintenance.
Make careful note of the layout of the cables as you go through this procedure as they will need
replacing in the same position when you replace the operator-information panel assembly.
Perform the following steps to remove the operator-information panel:
1.
Turn off the node while ensuring that its data is mirrored and synchronized. See MAP 5350 in the
IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller Troubleshooting Guide for more information.
2. Remove the cover and open the fan door. See “Removing the top cover” on page 77.
3. Release the dummy CD/DVD drive
2
by pressing the release button
1
and sliding the drive out
approximately 2 cm (1 in), as shown in Figure 213 on page 219. It is possible to push the drive from
the back to start it moving. Do not remove the drive from the casing.
