Chapter 2: Prepare The Libraries; Move The Library System; Power Down The Libraries; Remove The Side Panels - Overland Storage NEO 8000 Remove & Replace Instructions

To simplify the replacement of the HRA, you need to remove some library panels to allow
access to key areas inside the libraries.

Move the Library System

There must be at least 3.5 feet (1.1m) of clear space beside the library to allow enough room
to remove the HRA from the connected NEO 8000 libraries. If there is not enough room, it is
necessary for you to move the library system.
Refer to Appendix A, "Moving the Libraries,"
libraries.

Power Down the Libraries

WARNING: Working with a powered NEO 8000 library may cause physical harm and
severe damage to unit's circuitry. Always power down a library before removing any
panels.
1. Power down both units at the front panel.
2. Set each of the library circuit breakers to the OFF ("O") position.
3. Remove and retain the power cords.

Remove the Side Panels

Remove the outside side panels from both libraries.
1. At the Master unit, remove the screws that secure the left panel and carefully
remove the panel.
2. At the Slave unit, remove the screws that secure the right panel and carefully
remove the panel (see
