How to Remove a Disk Drive
Before You Begin
The system’s disk drive hot-plug feature lets you remove a disk drive without
shutting down the operating system or turning off the system power. For more
information, see:
■
“About Internal Disk Drives” on page 97
■
“About Hot-Pluggable and Hot-Swappable Components” on page 144
Note –
You can only perform disk hot-plug operations while the operating system is
running. Disk hot-plug operations are not supported when the system
ok
prompt is
displayed.
You need a system console in order to perform disk hot-plug operations; see:
■
“About Setting Up a Console” on page 45
You must follow antistatic precautions when handling a disk drive; see:
■
“How to Avoid Electrostatic Discharge” on page 31
What to Do
1. Unlock and open the front door.
2. Identify the disk drive to be removed.
For information about disk status LEDs, see “About Disk Drive LEDs” on page 166.
3. If you are performing a hot-plug operation, prepare the system for disk removal.
The hot-plug removal procedure involves software commands for preparing the
system prior to removing the disk drive. See “About Hot-Pluggable and
Hot-Swappable Components” on page 144.
4. If you are not performing a hot-plug operation, halt the operating system and
power off the system.
See “How to Power Off the System” on page 53.
5. Attach an antistatic wrist strap to a metal surface inside the system chassis.
