27. Reconnect the power to the expansion enclosure. The expansion canisters
restart and the system logs an error in the event log alerting you to the
unrecognized enclosure.
Important: Step 28 writes the enclosure identity into the replacement
midplane. The replacement midplane cannot be used as a replacement part for
a different enclosure after step 28 is completed.
28. Go to Monitoring > Events in the management GUI. Find the error relating to
the enclosure ID of the replaced enclosure and run the fix procedure for the
error.
Replacing the support rails
Remove and replace the support rails. The procedure differs, depending on the
generation of your control enclosure model.
