Before you perform this procedure, perform the following steps:
1. Back up data on the system.
2. Close all applications.
3.
Update the server firmware if it is not the latest revision.
4. Do one of the following:
• If the new Smart Array is the new boot device, install the device drivers.
• If the new Smart Array is not the new boot device, go to the next step.
5. Ensure that users are logged o and that all tasks are completed on the server.
CAUTION: In systems that use external data storage, be sure that the server is the first unit to be powered down
and the last to be powered back up. Taking this precaution ensures that the system does not erroneously mark the
drives as failed when the server is powered up.
