Required Library State for Repairs

Adding, removing, and replacing library components usually requires you to power
OFF the library. There are a few components, however, that you can service without
powering OFF the library. Instead, you may need only to take the library offline or
you may not need to impact the status of the library at all.
Table 9-2 shows the state that the library must be in before you service each part.
