FXT 5000 Series Field Service Guide
In addition to the information provided by Avere Systems, also refer to the installation and safety instructions that
came with the rack unit that you are using. If there is any conflicting information, do not proceed. Immediately con-
tact Avere Global Services, the rack manufacturer, or both for assistance.
8.1.1 FXT 5000 Series Differences from other Avere FXT Nodes
The physical design of the FXT 5000 Series node is significantly different from earlier Avere products like the FXT
4000 and 3000 series:
• The node height of the FXT 5000 Series is 1U instead of 2U.
• Rail assemblies are different in the FXT 5000 Series, and different installation steps are required.
• Inner rails on the FXT 5000 Series do not extend the full length of the node’s chassis. The back of the node
must be supported when removing it from a rack. Read Removing an FXT 5000 Series Node from a Rack
(page 37) to learn how to safely extract a node.
• Several connectors and ports are different from previous systems, and some are installed in a different orienta-
tion than they were in other Avere Systems products.
Even if you have previously worked with Avere FXT systems, be sure to read the instructions here before attempting
to install or service an FXT 5000 Series filer.
8.2 Removing the Node from the Cluster Configuration
Before taking a node out of service, you should use the Avere Control Panel web interface to remove the node from
the cluster. If you do not remove the node, the Avere OS software will give errors and warnings until it can re-
establish connection with the node.
You can use this procedure to remove a failed node, as long as the node still appears in the node list.
After replacing the node, use the Avere Control Panel to add the node to the cluster.
8.2.1 Removing the Node from the Cluster
To remove a node from the cluster, use the FXT Nodes page in the Settings tab of the Avere Control Panel.
Find the node that will be removed, and click the Remove button in its Actions menu.
