To replace an expansion canister, perform the following steps:
Procedure
1. Read the safety information to which "Preparing to remove and replace parts"
on page 224 refers.
2. Record which SAS cables are plugged into the specific ports of the expansion
canister. The cables must be inserted back into the same ports after the
replacement is complete; otherwise, the system cannot function properly.
3. Disconnect the SAS cables for each canister.
4. Grasp the handle between the thumb and forefinger.
Note: Ensure that you are opening the correct handle. The handle locations
for the node canisters and expansion canisters are slightly different.
Handles for the upper and lower expansion canisters overlap each other. The
handle with the finger grip on the left removes the upper canister ( 1 ). The
handle with the finger grip on the right removes the lower canister ( 2 ).
