problem. Replace the system board on the SAN Volume Controller models 2145-CF8, 2145-8A4,
2145-8G4, or replace the frame assembly on the SAN Volume Controller 2145-8F4 and SAN Volume

you have not left loose tools or parts inside the node. Make sure that all internal cables are correctly
routed. If you disconnected the fibre-channel and Ethernet cables, make sure that each cable is
reconnected to the same port from which it was removed.
6. Replace the top cover. See "Replacing the top cover" on page 72.
