7)
Push the lever down to lock the SSD into position.
Replace an interface module
Replace an interface module with the same type or a different type of module.
If the appliance was delivered with a plate that covered the interface slot, you can cover the interface slot with the
plate.
If the number of ports in the old and new module are the same, the mapping between the Interface IDs stays the
same. If the number of ports in the new module is different from the old module, you might need to modify the
interface definitions.
Note: We recommend fastening a grounding strap to your wrist so that it contacts your bare skin
and attaching the other end of the strap to the appliance.
Steps
1)
Turn off the appliance and disconnect any power cables.
2)
Release the module from its locking position by pressing and holding the lever right, then pulling the module
carefully out of the slot using the handle or the knob on the module's front panel.
Note: If the unlocked module does not move, keep the release lever to the right, press the
module gently toward the back of the slot, and pull the module again by the handle or the
knob.
3)
Insert the new module.
4)
Connect the cables and plug the power cables to the system and to the wall outlets.
5)
Turn on the appliance.
CAUTION: To ensure proper cooling, do not turn on the appliance if you have not installed
an interface module or a placeholder module in each slot. For some appliances, you can
install the cover plate over the slot instead.
6)
If the number of ports in the new module differs from the old module, update the interface configuration.
a)
In the Management Client, modify the interface definitions as needed.
b)
Refresh the policy to transfer the interface changes to the engine.
