11. Reinstall the top cover on the new controller canister by sliding it forward until the top latch
covers click.
12. Slide the new controller canister all the way into the controller-drive tray. Rotate the release levers
towards the center of the controller canister to lock it into place.
13. If your new controller canister has a Fibre Channel HIC or an InfiniBand HIC, install the SFP+
transceivers (Fibre Channel) or QSFP+ transceiver (InfiniBand) into the controller canister.
Depending on the HICs involved in your upgrade, you might be able to reuse SFP+ transceiver or
QSFP+ transceivers that you removed from your old controller canister. See
Cabling
considerations for controller-drive tray hardware upgrades
on page 8 for details about cabling
requirements.
14. Reconnect all of the cables between the controller-drive tray and the drive trays.
Note:
If you are upgrading to E2700 controllers from an earlier model, the drive cabling
configuration might be different from the configuration used for the old controllers.
If the drive cabling configuration is the same as it was with your old controllers, use the labels
that you attached to the cables to reconnect the cables correctly.
