Procedure
1. Open the cam handle.
2. Using two hands, insert the replacement drive into the open bay, firmly pushing until the drive stops.
3. Slowly close the cam handle until the drive is fully seated in the midplane and the handle clicks into place.
The green LED on the drive comes on when the drive is inserted correctly.
Note: Depending on your configuration, the controller might automatically reconstruct data to the new
drive. If the shelf uses hot spare drives, the controller might need to perform a complete reconstruction on
the hot spare before it can copy the data to the replaced drive. This reconstruction process increases the
time that is required to complete this procedure.

Complete drive replacement (24-drive)

You complete the drive replacement to confirm that the new drive is working correctly.
Procedure
1. Check the Power LED and the Attention LED on the drive you replaced.
When you first insert a drive, its Attention LED might be on. However, the LED should go off within a
minute.
• Power LED is on or blinking, and the Attention LED is off: Indicates that the new drive is working
correctly.
• Power LED is off: Indicates that the drive might not be installed correctly. Remove the drive, wait 30
seconds, and then reinstall it.
• Attention LED is on: Indicates that the new drive might be defective. Replace it with another new drive.
2. If the Recovery Guru in SANtricity System Manager still shows an issue, select Recheck to ensure the
problem has been resolved.
3. If the Recovery Guru indicates that drive reconstruction did not start automatically, start reconstruction
manually, as follows:
Note: Perform this operation only when instructed to do so by technical support or the Recovery Guru.
a) Select Hardware.
b) Click the drive that you replaced.
c) From the drive's context menu, select Reconstruct.
d) Confirm that you want to perform this operation.
When the drive reconstruction completes, the volume group is in an Optimal state.
4. As required, reinstall the bezel.
5. Return the failed part to Fujitsu, as described in the RMA instructions shipped with the kit.
Results
Your drive replacement is complete. You can resume normal operations.

of an impending drive failure or an actual drive failure. When a drive has failed, its amber Attention LED is on.
You can hot-swap a failed drive while the storage array is receiving I/O operations.
