Prepare To Replace Drive (60-Drive) - Fujitsu ETERNUS AB Series Maintaining Hardware

Prepare to replace drive (60-drive)

You prepare to replace a drive by checking the Recovery Guru in SANtricity System Manager and completing
any prerequisite steps. Then, you can locate the failed component.
Procedure
1. If the Recovery Guru in SANtricity System Manager has notified you of an impending drive failure, but the
drive has not yet failed, follow the instructions in the Recovery Guru to fail the drive.
2. If needed, use SANtricity System Manager to confirm you have a suitable replacement drive.
a) Select Hardware.
b) Select the failed drive on the shelf graphic.
c) Click the drive to display its context menu, and then select View settings.
d) Confirm that the replacement drive has a capacity equal to or greater than the drive you are replacing
and that it has the features you expect.
For example, do not attempt to replace a hard disk drive (HDD) with a solid-state disk (SSD). Similarly,
if you are replacing a secure-capable drive, make sure the replacement drive is also secure-capable.
3. If needed, use SANtricity System Manager to locate the drive within the storage array.
a) If the shelf has a bezel, remove it so you can see the LEDs.
b) From the drive's context menu, select Turn on locator light.
The drive drawer's Attention LED (amber) blinks so you can open the correct drive drawer to identify
which drive to replace.
Attention LED
c) Unlatch the drive drawer by pulling on both levers.
d) Using the extended levers, carefully pull the drive drawer out until it stops.
e) Look at the top of the drive drawer to find the Attention LED in front of each drive.
