Removing and Installing the Split-Bus Module
NOTICE:
Always wear a wrist grounding strap when handling equipment with static-sensitive components.
Your storage system comes equipped with a "warm-pluggable" split-bus module which can be removed or replaced with the
system powered on, provided that all I/O activity to the module has ceased. However, since the split-bus module is an
extension of the backplane, it must be present for proper system operation. If you turn on your storage system without a
split-bus module present or the module is removed while the system is powered on, the shelf-fault LED illuminates, and an
audible alarm sounds continuously until a split-bus module is inserted. For more information on split-bus module features and
functions, see "
