DISPATCH INSTRUCTIONS

WHAT SKILLS DOES THE ENGINEER NEED:(IS A SITE ENGINEER AVAILABLE?)
HDs are hot-swappable CRUs that can be replaced by anyone.

TIME ESTIMATE: 30 minutes

FIELD ENGINEER INSTRUCTIONS

WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE RESOLUTION ACTIVITY?:

System must be shut down

Important: Do not operate the system with empty slots. Always insert a filler into an empty slot to reduce the possibility of module shutdown.

WHAT ACTION DOES THE ENGINEER NEED TO TAKE:

1.- Observe the LEDs on the faces of the HDs and identify the defective HD:

* Middle LED on (amber): The disk is faulty and should be replaced.
* Left LED on (green): The disk is operating properly.
* Right LED on (blue): This indicates that the disk is ready to remove. This can be useful if you are replacing a disk that hasnÃ¢ÂÂt failed.

2.- Press the button on the face of the HD to release the spring-loaded securing latch.

3.- Grasp the securing latch and remove the HD from the disk bay.

4.- Installation is the reverse of this procedure.

Note: When you install an HD, open its securing latch before you push the disk into the bay. Push the HD into the bay until it stops, then close the securing latch to fully engage the connector on the HD backplane.
