Replacing The Msa1510I Chassis; Before You Begin; Verifying Component Failure - HP StorageWorks 1510i - Modular Smart Array Service Manual

Replacing the MSA1510i chassis

When replacing a chassis, components are removed from the failed chassis and then installed in the
replacement.
Components that are moved include the following:
• 2-Port Ethernet iSCSI modules
• Fan modules
• SCSI I/O modules
• Power supply modules
• Controllers
• Blanks

Before you begin

CAUTION:
• Before removing a component or blank from an operational device, make sure that you have the
replacement part or blank available. Removing a component or blank impacts the airflow pattern
and cooling ability of the device. Allow approximately 30 seconds before installing the new or
replacement component to ensure that configuration data about the removed component is cleared
from the system registry, but, to avoid possible overheating, insert the new or replacement component
within one or two minutes. If the internal temperature exceeds acceptable limits, the device may
overheat and automatically shut down or restart.
• Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Use proper anti-static protection.
IMPORTANT:
Schedule a maintenance window of approximately 60 minutes to complete this procedure.
IMPORTANT:
Before beginning these procedures, verify that there is a known, good backup of the system. Backup all
volumes and, for the MSA1510i, record the iSCSI and Management settings.
TIP:
Before disconnecting any cables and components, label them so that you can reinstall them in the same
position when the chassis replacement is complete.

Verifying component failure

• Check the array controller LCD display panel for error messages.
• Verify that the electrical source is delivering power down the AC power cord.
• Verify that the chassis Fault LED is blinking amber.
• Verify that the chassis Status LED is off.
