Physical components of a system are generally considered either a customer-replaceable
unit (CRU) or a field-replaceable unit (FRU). CRUs are further categorized as either Tier 1
CRUs or Tier 2 CRUs with the following definitions:
– Tier 1 CRU: Very easy to replace
– Tier 2 CRU: More complicated to replace
– FRU: Replaced by the service provider
Removal and replacement procedures can be documented in the information center
accompanied by graphics, such as Figure A-1 on page 51, and video clips.
