Completing the module controller replacement

Procedure
1. If the library has multiple modules, replace the module interconnect cables between the replaced
controller board and the adjacent modules.
2. If you replaced a base module controller, connect the Ethernet cable and insert the USB device if one
was removed.
3. Replace the AC power cords for the module with the replaced controller board.

Verifying the base or expansion module controller installation

Procedure
1. Check the overall library status from the RMI Status > Library Status screen.
2. Using the OCP or RMI, check for events; the event that indicated the controller was faulty should be
cleared.
3. If replacing the base module controller, upgrade the firmware if necessary.
After replacing the base module controller, the firmware version for the overall library will be the
firmware version shipped on the replacement controller. The firmware version shipped on the
replacement controller might be earlier than the firmware running on the library before the
replacement. In this case, update the library firmware to the version previously installed on the library
or the currently available firmware version.
To find the version of firmware installed on the library, check the upper left corner of the RMI or the
About screen on the OCP. Update the firmware from the RMI Maintenance > Firmware Upgrades >
System Firmware screen.
4. Verify that the library configuration is correct from the RMI Status > Partition Map > Configuration
Status screen.
If the library configuration is incorrect after replacing the base module controller, restore the previous
settings from the RMI Configuration > System > Save/Restore Configuration screen or the OCP
Configuration>Save/Restore>Restore Configuration File screen, or reconfigure the library.
If using the MSL Encryption Kit, you might need to enter the token password.
5. If the UID LEDs are still illuminated, deactivate them using the OCP or RMI.
6. Resume host applications.
