forward on the service controller. The service controller will move slightly forward.

Note: If you meet any resistance, do not press harder, or you might damage the release mechanism.

shown in Figure 84

Note: When you replace a service controller, it is normal to change the worldwide node name

(WWNN) of the new service controller to match the one that is being replaced. In this case, you will

have two service controllers with the same WWNN. Clearly label the service controller that you are

removing and indicate that its WWNN is now a duplicate and that it must not be connected to a SAN

before its WWNN is reset.
