Chapter 4. Multiaccess Enclosure FRU Exchange
Important
The SAC, system card, and a single power supply are not
hot pluggable
.
This means that you must switch off power to the adapter when replacing either
of them. Other FRUs are hot pluggable and can be exchanged without
powering OFF the Multiaccess Enclosure, although the adapter or other FRU
must be reset before new configurations can take effect. Follow carefully the
procedure described.
Before removing an adapter, be sure that the corresponding resource has been
disabled
by the operator at the operator console.
Each time you change a FRU, carefully record its location and check that the
attached cables are correctly labeled and reconnected.
In the following table, find the FRU you want to exchange and go to the procedure
indicated.
