Post-Replacement Procedures

After replacing a component in the SCv2080 storage system, start up the storage system (if it was
previously shut down) and use SupportAssist to send diagnostic data to Dell Technical Support. Then
return the system to normal operation by disabling maintenance mode.

Start Up the Storage Controller

If the storage controller was previously shut down, perform this procedure to start it up.
1. Plug the power cables into the PSUs of the storage system.
2. Turn on the storage system by pressing the power switches on the PSUs.
NOTE: When the storage system is powered on, a one-minute delay occurs while the SCv2080
prepares to boot. During this time, the only indication that the SCv2080 is powered on are the
LEDs on the storage controllers. After the one-minute delay, the SCv2080 fans and LEDs turn
on to indicate that the storage system is starting to come up.
3. Use the Dell Storage Client to make sure that the replacement part is recognized and shown as up
and running.
