10. Repeat these steps for controller B.
11. If you installed a storage I/O module, install and cable your NS224 shelves, as described in
Hot-adding an
NS224 drive shelf
.
Option 2: Add an I/O module in a system with no open slots
You must remove one or more existing NIC or storage modules in your system in order to
install one or more I/O modules into your fully-populated system.
1. If you are:
Replacing a… Then…
NIC I/O module with the same the
same number of ports
The LIFs will automatically migrate when its controller module is shut
down.
NIC I/O module with fewer ports Permanently reassign the affected LIFs to a different home port. See
Migrating a LIF for information about using System Manager to
permanently move the LIFs.
NIC I/O module with a storage I/O
module
Use System Manager to permanently migrate the LIFs to different
home ports, as described in
Migrating a LIF.
2. Shut down controller A:
a.
Disable automatic giveback:
storage failover modify -node local -auto-giveback
false
b.
Take over the target node:
storage failover takeover -ofnode target_node_name
The console connection shows that the node drops to the LOADER prompt when the take over is
complete.
3. If you are not already grounded, properly ground yourself.
4. Unplug any cabling on the target I/O module.
5. Remove the target I/O module from the chassis:
a. Depress the lettered and numbered cam button.
The cam button moves away from the chassis.
b. Rotate the cam latch down until it is in a horizontal position.
The I/O module disengages from the chassis and moves about 1/2 inch out of the I/O slot.
c. Remove the I/O module from the chassis by pulling on the pull tabs on the sides of the module face.
Make sure that you keep track of which slot the I/O module was in.
