the power supply to the power source.
b. Using the locking latches, firmly push the controller module into the chassis until the locking latches
begin to rise.
Do not use excessive force when sliding the controller module into the chassis to avoid
damaging the connectors.
c. Fully seat the controller module in the chassis by rotating the locking latches upward, tilting them so
that they clear the locking pins, gently push the controller all the way in, and then lower the locking
latches into the locked position.
The controller module begins to boot as soon as it is fully seated in the chassis. Be prepared to
interrupt the boot process.
d. If you have not already done so, reinstall the cable management device.
e.
Interrupt the normal boot process and boot to LOADER by pressing
Ctrl-C.
If your system stops at the boot menu, select the option to boot to LOADER.
f.
At the LOADER prompt, enter
bye to reinitialize the PCIe cards and other components.
g.
Interrupt the boot process and boot to the LOADER prompt by pressing
Ctrl-C.
If your system stops at the boot menu, select the option to boot to LOADER.
Restore and verify the system configuration - AFF C400
After completing the hardware replacement and booting to Maintenance mode, you verify
the low-level system configuration of the replacement controller and reconfigure system
settings as necessary.
Step 1: Set and verify system time after replacing the controller
You should check the time and date on the replacement controller module against the healthy controller
module in an HA pair, or against a reliable time server in a stand-alone configuration. If the time and date do
not match, you must reset them on the replacement controller module to prevent possible outages on clients
due to time differences.
About this task
It is important that you apply the commands in the steps on the correct systems:
• The replacement node is the new node that replaced the impaired node as part of this procedure.
• The healthy node is the HA partner of the replacement node.
Steps
1. If the replacement node is not at the LOADER prompt, halt the system to the LOADER prompt.
2.
On the healthy node, check the system time:
show date
The date and time are given in GMT.
