Identifying Failed System Components
This chapter describes how to identify a failed system component
(field-replaceable unit) other than a disk module: a fan module, power
supply, optional battery backup unit, or storage-control processor board.
Read this chapter after you have determined that one of these components
has failed as indicated by the cabinet fault light, or in the output of the raid5
getcrus command, as explained in "Getting Information About Other
Components," in Chapter 3.
These components can be replaced only by qualified Silicon Graphics
Note:
System Service Engineers or other qualified service providers. Only disk
modules are owner-replaceable or end user-replaceable; Chapter 5 provides
instructions.
Call the Silicon Graphics hotline to order a replacement module:
1-800-800-4SGI (1-800-800-4744)
Table 6-1 lists Silicon Graphics marketing codes for replacement units for the
