Removing a Hot-Swap Disk Drive
Attention: Before you perform the following procedure, back up the data for the drive you are removing,
and ensure that the drive has been removed from the configuration. Physically removing a hot-swap drive
from the system before it has been removed from the system configuration can cause unrecoverable data
corruption. Refer to “Deconfiguring a Disk Drive for Removal” on page 53.
Attention: The Linux operating system does not support these hot-swappable procedures. Also, Linux
does not support hot-swapping any hot-swappable device. A system with Linux installed must be shut
down and powered off before replacing any disk drive. Use the non-hot-swappable procedures when
replacing a disk drive with the Linux operating system installed.
To remove a hot-swap disk drive, do the following:
1. Before removing the disk, ensure all data has been saved.
2. Deconfigure the drive you are removing from the system. See “Deconfiguring a Disk Drive for
Removal” on page 53.
3. On a 296/C3, open the rack front door.
On a 296/E3, open the front bezel door.
4. Locate the hot-swap disk drive you want to remove. Note the disk drive’s bay location so that it can
be replaced in the same slot. If you are removing a faulty disk drive, a lit amber LED located at the
front of each disk drive will help you isolate the faulty drive.
5. Log in as root user.
6. At the command line, type
smitty
.
7. Select System Storage Management (Physical and Logical Storage).
8. Select Removable Disk Management.
9. Select Remove a Disk.
10. Select the desired disk from the list on the screen and press Enter.
11. Remove the disk drive by placing the disk drive release handle into the open position (perpendicular
to the drive) and pulling the hot-swap disk drive away from the bay. The lit LED on the disk drive will
turn off when the disk drive is removed.
