Removing a Hot-Swap Disk Drive with the System Power Off
A hot-swap disk drive is removed from the system with the system power off when the system is running
Linux or a system failure has occurred.
Attention:
Before you perform the following procedure, if your system is operational, back up the data
for the drive you are removing, and ensure that the drive has been removed from the configuration.
Physically removing a hot-swap drive from the system before it has been removed from the system
configuration can cause unrecoverable data corruption. Refer to "Deconfiguring a Disk Drive for Removal"
on page 276.
To remove a hot-swap disk drive with the system power off, see the illustration on page 278 and do the
following:
1. If the system is operational, stop the system as described in "Stopping the System" on page 246. If the
system is not operational, go to step 3.
2. Ensure all data on the disk has been saved.
3. Open the front bezel door.
4. Locate the hot-swap disk drive you want to remove. Note the disk drive's bay location so that it can be
replaced in the same slot.
5. Remove the disk drive by placing the disk drive release handle into the open position (perpendicular to
the drive) and pulling the hot-swap disk drive away from the bay. See the illustration on page 278.

5. Push the disk drive handle in until it locks.
6. If the system is operational, start the system as described in "Starting the System" on page 247.
