Chassis replacement
The SAN128B-6 chassis is highly reliable and unlikely to fail. However, the chassis is available as a FRU
and can be replaced using the following basic tasks. Since chassis replacement is a collaborative process
between customers and SSRs please review the information provided in “Customer replacement
responsibilities” and “IBM service replacement responsibilities” on page 79 to gain an understanding of
your specific responsibilities for this procedure.

Customer replacement responsibilities
Chassis replacement is a combined effort between the customer and the IBM System Services
Representative (SSR). Before the IBM SSR can perform the physical replacement and labeling procedures,
you must prepare your environment for chassis replacement by performing the following tasks:
v “Determining the need to replace the chassis”
v “Preparing for replacement” on page 72
v “Recording critical device and SAN information” on page 72
v “Powering down the switch” on page 75
v “Disconnecting the cables” on page 79
v “Reconnecting system to the network and fabric” on page 75
v “Downloading the configuration” on page 76
v
“Verifying correct operation of system” on page 77
v “Verifying correct configuration of the fabric” on page 78
Determining the need to replace the chassis
Before replacing the chassis, verify that the replacement is necessary. Ensure that the components are
firmly seated when troubleshooting. Contact IBM support if you have any questions about whether the
chassis should be replaced. Any of the following events might indicate that the chassis requires
replacement:
v One or more components do not function properly.
v The psShow or fanShow commands continue to show a faulty component even though the component
has been replaced.
Chassis replacement overview
Use the following information to help prepare for a chassis replacement. Do not remove components
without following procedures in this section exactly as you will need to save critical device and SAN
