Customer self repair (CSR)

Hardware component CSR support
Using WEBES, ISEE or other diagnostic tools, a support specialist will work with you to diagnose and
assess whether a replacement component is required to address a system problem. The specialist will
also help you determine whether you can perform the replacement.

Parts only warranty service

Your HP Limited Warranty may include a parts only warranty service. Under the terms of parts only
warranty service, HP will provide replacement parts free of charge.
For parts only warranty service, CSR part replacement is mandatory. If you request HP to replace
these parts, you will be charged for travel and labor costs.

Best practices for replacing hardware components

The following information will help you replace the hardware components on your storage system

CAUTION:
Removing a component significantly changes the air flow within the enclosure. All components must
be installed for the enclosure to cool properly. If a component fails, leave it in place in the enclosure
until a new component is available to install.
