Removing components from the chassis
ATTENTION
Follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when removing components. Wear a wrist grounding strap connected to chassis ground
(if the device is plugged in) or a bench ground.
NOTE
Do not remove WWN cards from the chassis as new WWN cards are preinstalled in the replacement chassis. Do not replace the
WWN cards in the replacement chassis with the old WWN cards as this will result in licensing and return materials authorization
(RMA) issues for your product. The original license will be transferred to the replacement chassis, based on the license
identification (LID) of the new, preinstalled WWN card, through the RMA process. You should be provided a license for the new
chassis through email. If you have not received this, contact your Brocade support representative.

Installing the replacement chassis
NOTE
Use safe lifting practices when moving the product. (C015)
ATTENTION
A fully populated Brocade DCX (eight FC8-64 port cards, 512 ports) weighs approximately 159.2 kg (351 lb) and requires a
hydraulic or assisted lift to install it.
NOTE
If the Brocade DCX is installed in a cabinet, ensure that the cabinet is balanced and secured mechanically and that the removal
and installation procedure will not compromise cabinet stability.
1. If the chassis is in a cabinet, remove it from the cabinet, remove the rack mount hardware, and save the hardware for use with
the new chassis.
2. Place the chassis on a lift or on the shipping pallet provided with the original chassis.
