New mounting brackets are required to accept the FP-2. The mounting brackets have two
■
threaded standoff whereas the old mounting brackets have only one threaded standoff.
Because the new mounting brackets are required to accept the FP-2, you will need to
■
completely unrack, then rerack the Oracle Fabric Interconnect to replace the old mounting
brackets with the new ones.
As part of unracking the Oracle Fabric Interconnect, you will need to uncable the system
■
and remove facility power. Consequently, you will need to schedule a service window to
accommodate a service interruption.
Before beginning this procedure, make a note of how all the cables are connected for the
■
Fabric Board and I/O modules to facilitate returning the Oracle Fabric Interconnect to
service.
Power Down the Oracle Fabric Interconnect
Issue the system shutdown command and wait for the Oracle Fabric Interconnect
to complete its shutdown routine.
Uncable the Oracle Fabric Interconnect
1.
Make a note of how all cables are connected to facilitate returning the Oracle
Fabric Interconnect to service.
2.
Disconnect all Infiniband cables from the Fabric Board; all gigabit Ethernet
cables from GbE I/O modules; and all FibreChannel cables from the FC I/O
modules.
3.
Disconnect all power cables from the Oracle Fabric Interconnect.
Removing the Oracle Fabric Interconnect from the
Equipment Rack
To replace an FP-1 with an FP-2 Front Panel, you will need to remove the chassis from the
equipment rack.
