Replacing The Microsd Card - Dell EqualLogic PS6210 Hardware Owner's Manual

PS6210 Hardware Owner's Manual
If the GUI (or CLI) still shows only one control module after appropriate time has elapsed, the
controller might not be properly installed. Try to remove the module by rotating the black lever and
reinsert the module into the array chassis. Ensure that the face of the contoller is even with the
controller already installed in the array.
After reinstalling the control module, if both control modules still do not appear in the GUI (or
CLI), contact your support provider.
If you interrupt the synchonization process, you might corrupt the control module's internal firmware,
and the control module will no longer function properly.

control module in the array.
