Adding or replacing the back end module
Before you begin
• Wear a wrist strap connected to the storage system to prevent part
failures caused by static electricity. Do not remove the wrist strap until you
finish the procedure.
• Use the maintenance utility to block the back end module.
• Confirm that the storage system power is turned on.
• Confirm that the red STATUS LED on the back end module to be replaced is
on.
Procedure
1. Press the white tab on the SAS cable, and then remove the cable from
the back end module to be replaced.
2. Loosen the two blue screws that secure the back end module or dummy
board.
3. Holding the blue screw on the back end module, gently remove the back
end module. Keep the back end module straight to avoid jostling the
