Pilot Replacement Procedures
Pilot Overview
The Pilot is an out-of-band management controller (1U) that directs and manages
all system activity.
Each Oracle FS System has one active Pilot and one standby Pilot.
The Pilot provides access to the following:
•
All management functions for the Oracle FS System
•
System monitoring, alerts, log collection, and automatic log transmission
•
Management for restarting, replacing, updating, and recovering Controller
and Drive Enclosure resources
The two models available for the Pilot
are X4–2 and X5–2. The following figure is
an isometric illustration of the
Pilot.
Note:
The X4-2 and X5-2 Pilot models cannot coexist in the same Oracle FS
System. Both Pilots must be X4 or both Pilots must be X5.

You can distinguish between the X4–2 and X5–2 models of the Pilot by using the
Oracle FS System Manager
(GUI) or identifying the visual differences on the
Pilot
chassis.
The drive slot spacing on the front panel of the Pilot
is different for the X4–2 and
the X5–2 models. The X4–2
Pilot has eight drive bays that are evenly spaced
