Removing the disk drive module

V
CAUTION!
Only remove a disk drive module during operation if the drive is not
currently being accessed. Observe the control LEDs for the
corresponding disk drive modules (see
page 71).
Under no circumstances should you remove a disk drive module
while the system is in operation if you are not sure whether the disk
drive is operated by a RAID controller and belongs to a disk array.
A disk drive module can only be replaced during operation in
conjunction with a corresponding RAID configuration.
All disk drive modules (drives) must be uniquel y identified so that they
can be reinstalled in their original mounting locations later. If this is
not done, existing data can be lost.
If you want to remove a disk drive module during operation, proceed as follows:
Ê If you want to remove a disk drive module that i s not defective, the hard disk
drive must first be set to "make available offline" via the software (RAID
controller configuration software).
Ê Unlock the disk drive module as described in section
drive module" on page
Ê Pull the disk drive module out a few centimeters.
Ê Wait for at least 60 seconds.
I
This period is necessary for the RAID controller to recognize that a
disk drive module has been removed and for the hard disk drive to
come to a stop.
Ê Pull the disk drive module out completely.
Ê Install the new disk drive module, as described in
module" on page

CAUTION!
If you have removed a disk drive module and do not install a new one
in its place, put the dummy module back in its place for cooling, to
comply with EMC regulations (regulations regarding electromagnetic
compatibility), and for protection against fire. Ensure that the dummy
module engages correctly in the bay.
