Replacing a RAID Controller
The RAID Controller is field-replaceable. But you can only hot-swap a controller if
you have two controllers installed in your VTrak enclosure.
Dual Controller Subsystem
Before you install the replacement controller, be sure the replacement controller
has:
• The same Firmware version as the original controller
• The same amount of SDRAM as the original controller
To obtain this information, click on the Controller icon, Information tab, and
look for Firmware Version and Memory Size.
Removing the old controller
To remove a RAID Controller on a dual-controller subsystem:
1. Disconnect the Fibre Channel or SAS cables, management, serial, and
power cables.
2. On the controller handle, press the release button and pull the handle
downward. See Figure 13.
3. Pull the controller out of the VTrak enclosure.
Installing the new controller
To install the new controller:
1. Carefully slide the controller into the enclosure.
2. Gently press the handle in and upward until it locks. See Figure 13.
3. Connect the Fibre Channel or SAS cables, management, serial, and power
cables.
Single Controller Subsystem
Removing the old controller
To remove the RAID Controller on a single-controller subsystem:
1. Shutdown the VTrak. See “Shutting Down the Subsystem” on page 97
(WebPAM PROe) or page 200 (CLU).
2. Switch off the power.
Important
Do not replace the RAID Controller based on LED colors alone.
Only replace the RAID Controller when directed to do so by
Promise Technical Support. See page 293.
