Removing Supervisor Modules - IBM SAN192C-6 Installation, Service And User Manual

3. Verify that the captive screws are tightened to 8 in-lb on all modules already installed in the chassis.
This ensures that the EMI gaskets are fully compressed and maximizes the opening space for the
module being installed.
4. If a filler panel is installed, remove the Phillips pan-head screw from the filler panel and remove the
panel. To remove a currently installed module, see the "Removing Supervisor Modules" on page 80.
5. Open the ejector lever on the new or replacement module by pressing on the ejector button. Allow the
ejector to open fully.
6. Position the module in the chassis as follows:
a) Slide the module carefully into the desired slot until its rear connectors touch the mid-plane
surface and the ejector levers swing inward about 25 degrees. This indicates that the ejector lever
jaw is now inside the chassis jaw cutout and the module is ready to close the ejector lever.
b) After visually confirming that both the ejector lever is swung inward about 25 degrees, push in the
ejector lever to fully insert the supervisor module into the chassis until the ejector levers are in
mechanically locked position. The ejector lever should be parallel to the face plate when locked.
Note : Ensure that the ejector lever is fully closed before tightening the captive screw. Failure to
fully seat the module in the backplane connector can result in error messages.
c) Tighten the captive screw on the supervisor module to 8 in-lb.

Removing Supervisor Modules

Before you begin
Note : You need a flat-blade or number 2 Phillips-head screwdriver to loosen or tighten the captive
screws on the supervisor module.
About this task
Use this procedure to remove a supervisor module from the chassis.
Procedure
1. Failover to the standby supervisor if the switch has two supervisor modules and the supervisor you are
removing is currently active. For information on how to failover a supervisor module, see the Cisco NX-
OS Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
2. Disconnect any network interface cables attached to the module.
3. Loosen the captive screw on the module being removed.
4. Remove the module from the chassis as follows:
a) Press the ejector release button on the left of the module to push out the ejector lever and to
disconnect the module.
b) Rotate the ejector lever outward to unseat the supervisor module from the midplane connector.
c) Grasp the front edge of the module and slide the module partially out of the slot. Place your other
hand under the module to support the weight of the module. Do not touch the module circuitry.
5. Place the module on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam, or immediately reinstall it in another slot.
6. Install a filler panel on an empty slot to keep the chassis dust-free and to maintain proper airflow
through the chassis.
Warning : Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent
exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic
interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air
through the chassis. Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and
rear covers are in place.
