Parts Replacement Procedures

This section provides the following procedures for removing and replacing components and assemblies in the storage system:

Removing and installing the split-bus module

Replacing the power supply

Replacing a cooling module

Unless otherwise noted, each procedure assumes the following conditions:

You have read the safety instructions in your Product Information document. Always follow the instructions closely.

While working on the system, do not attempt to service the system except as explained in this guide and elsewhere in

Dell documentation.

You can replace or reinstall a part by performing the removal procedure in reverse order, unless additional information

is provided.

Recommended Tools

Most of the procedures in this section require the use of one or more of the following tools:

# 2 Phillips-head screwdriver

Wrist grounding strap, as explained in the safety instructions found in your Product Information document

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 "

Split-Bus Module

."

This sections describes how to remove and install split-bus modules in your storage system.

Removing a Split-Bus Module

1. Turn off the storage system.

This step is optional if I/O activity to the device has ceased.

2. Using a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver, loosen the captive screw at the top of the split-bus module (see

Figure

).

3. Grasp the handle of the module and pull it from the module slot.
