Remove A Hard Drive (Hot-Plug) - Fujitsu SPARC Enterprise T5440 Service Manual

Caution – You must use hard drives designed for this server, which have a vented
front panel to allow adequate airflow to internal system components. Installing
inappropriate hard drives could result in an overtemperature condition.
The following situations inhibit your ability to hot-plug a drive:
If the hard drive contains the operating system, and the operating system is not
■
mirrored on another drive.
If the hard drive cannot be logically isolated from the online operations of the
■
server.
If your drive falls into one of these conditions, you must power off the server before
you replace the hard drive.
