NOTE: If you are replacing or adding a processor module, see Section 5.1.1,
5.1.2, or 5.1.3 before using this procedure.
Removal
1. Shut down the operating system and power down the system.
CAUTION: You must wear a wrist strap when you handle any modules.
2. Ground yourself to the cabinet with an antistatic wrist strap.
3. Push the handles of the module to be removed in toward the module end
plate and to the left, releasing them from the stops.
4. Grasp the end plate and slide the module out of the card cage. See
Figure 5-1.
5. Place the module on an ESD pad. If it is being replaced, slide the module
into the antistatic bag from the replacement module and pack it in the box.
Replacement
1. Ground yourself to the cabinet frame with an antistatic wrist strap.
CAUTION: To avoid damaging an EMI gasket, insert modules from left to
right. These gaskets can easily break, and a broken piece of gasket can
damage a module or the centerplane.
2. Remove the module from its packaging and release the spring-loaded
handles from the stops. To do this, push both handles toward the module
end plate and away from the stops.
3. Hold the module assembly by the end plate. Align the module with the card
guide and the cover with the rail (see Figure 5-1).
4. Slide the module assembly into the card cage as far as it will easily go.
5. When the module stops, check that the projections on the top and bottom of
the end plate are aligned with the slots in the card cage (see
5-1). If they are not, remove the module and realign.
6. Push the handles to the module end plate. You will feel the module make
contact with the connectors at the centerplane. Release the handles so they
spring back into the stops.
Verification
Check that terminator modules are installed in all unused slots. Power up the
system and check that the self-test display is correct. Enter the show
configuration command. If you replaced a memory module, enter the show
simm command.
