Replacing PCIe cards in an N6200 series system

To replace a PCIe card or riser in the system, you must perform a specific sequence
of tasks.
If the system-level diagnostics tests...
Resulted in some test failures
Then...
Determine the cause of the problem.
1. Exit Maintenance mode by entering the
following command:
halt
After you issue the command, wait until
the system stops at the LOADER
prompt.
2. Turn off or leave on the power supplies,
depending on how many controller
modules are in the target chassis:
v If you have two controller modules in
the chassis, leave the power supplies
turned on to provide power to the
partner node.
v If you have one controller module in
the chassis, turn off the power
supplies and unplug them from the
power sources.
3. Verify that you have observed all the
considerations identified for running
system-level diagnostics, that cables are
securely connected, and that hardware
components are properly installed in the
storage system.
4. Boot the target node, interrupting the
boot by pressing Ctrl-c:
v If you have two controller modules in
the chassis, fully seat the controller
module in the chassis. The controller
module boots up when fully seated.
v If you have one controller module in
the chassis, connect the power
supplies and turn them on.
5. Rerun the system-level diagnostics tests.
