XSCF Unit Replacement

This chapter explains the replacement procedures for an eXtended System Control
Facility unit (XSCFU). It covers the following:

Section 11.1, “Overview of the XSCFU” on page 11-1

Section 11.2, “Active Replacement and Hot Replacement” on page 11-5

Section 11.3, “Cold Replacement” on page 11-11

There are three methods for replacing an XSCFU: active replacement, hot
replacement, and cold replacement. For the definition of each type of method, see

Section 4.1, “Types of Replacement Procedures” on page 4-2

.

Note –

If you replace the XSCF unit and the operator panel simultaneously, system

will not operate normally. Execute the

showhardconf

command or the

showstatus

command to confirm that the component replaced earlier is

operating normally, before replacing the subsequent FRU.

Overview of the XSCFU

This section provides an overview of the XSCFU and describes their mounting
locations.

The XSCFU controls and manages the server hardware. There are two types of
XSCFU: the XSCFU_B, which is used for both high-end servers, and the XSCFU_C,
which is used for the expansion cabinet of the M9000. The XSCFU is duplicated, and
active maintenance can be performed on it.
