The fan modules are short. Always support the bottom of the fan module with your free hand
so that it does not suddenly drop free from the chassis and injure you.
6. Set the fan module aside.
7. Insert the replacement fan module into the chassis by aligning it with the opening, and then sliding it into
the chassis.
8. Push firmly on the fan module cam handle so that it is seated all the way into the chassis.
The cam handle raises slightly when the fan module is completely seated.
9. Swing the cam handle up to its closed position, making sure that the cam handle release latch clicks into
the locked position.
The Attention LED should not be lit after the fan is seated and has spun up to operational speed.
10. Align the bezel with the ball studs, and then gently push the bezel onto the ball studs.
Replace an NVDIMM - AFF A320
You must replace the NVDIMM in the controller module when your system registers that
the flash lifetime is almost at an end or that the identified NVDIMM is not healthy in
general; failure to do so causes a system panic.
All other components in the system must be functioning properly; if not, you must contact technical support.
You must replace the failed component with a replacement FRU component you received from your provider.
Step 1: Shut down the impaired controller
Shut down or take over the impaired controller using the appropriate procedure for your
configuration.
Option 1: Shut down the controller
To shut down the impaired controller, you must determine the status of the controller and,
if necessary, take over the controller so that the healthy controller continues to serve data
from the impaired controller storage.
About this task
If you have a cluster with more than two nodes, it must be in quorum. If the cluster is not in quorum or a healthy
controller shows false for eligibility and health, you must correct the issue before shutting down the impaired
controller; see the
Administration overview with the CLI.
Steps
1. If AutoSupport is enabled, suppress automatic case creation by invoking an AutoSupport message:
system node autosupport invoke -node * -type all -message
MAINT=number_of_hours_downh
The following AutoSupport message suppresses automatic case creation for two hours: cluster1:*>
system node autosupport invoke -node * -type all -message MAINT=2h
