Replacing the SAN Volume Controller 2145-CF8 top cover

This topic describes how to replace the SAN Volume Controller 2145-CF8 top cover.

Important: Before you slide the cover forward, make sure that all the tabs on both the front, rear, and

side of the cover engage the chassis correctly. If all the tabs do not engage the chassis correctly, it will be

very difficult to remove the cover later.

To replace the top cover on the SAN Volume Controller 2145-CF8, complete the following steps:

1. If you removed the node from the rack, replace the node in the rack, as described in “Replacing the

SAN Volume Controller in a rack” on page 48.

2. Make sure that all cables, adapters, and other components are installed and seated correctly and that

you have not left loose tools or parts inside the node. Make sure that all internal cables are correctly

routed. If you disconnected the fibre-channel and Ethernet cables, make sure that each cable is

reconnected to the same port from which it was removed.
