About this task
Attention: Even though many of these components are hot-swappable, they are
intended to be used only when your system is not active (no I/O operations). If
your system is powered on and processing I/O operations, go to the management
GUI and follow the fix procedures. Initiating the replacement actions without the
assistance of the fix procedures can result in loss of data or loss of access to data.
