Orange release button.
Caching module cam handle.
a. Press the orange release button on the front of the caching module.
Do not use the numbered and lettered I/O cam latch to eject the caching module. The
numbered and lettered I/O cam latch ejects the entire NVRAM10 module and not the
caching module.
b. Rotate the cam handle until the caching module begins to slide out of the NVRAM10 module.
c. Gently pull the cam handle straight toward you to remove the caching module from the NVRAM10
module.
Be sure to support the caching module as you remove it from the NVRAM10 module.
4. Install the caching module:
a. Align the edges of the caching module with the opening in the NVRAM10 module.
b. Gently push the caching module into the bay until the cam handle engages.
c. Rotate the cam handle until it locks into place.
Step 3: Add or replace an X9170A core dump module
The 1TB cache core dump, X9170A, is only used in the AFF A700 systems. The core
dump module cannot be hot-swapped. The core dump module typically is located in the
front of the NVRAM module in slot 6-1 in the rear of the system. To replace or add the
core dump module, locate slot 6-1, and then follow the specific sequence of steps to add
or replace it.
Before you begin
• Your system must be running ONTAP 9.8 or later in order to add a core dump module.
• The X9170A core dump module is not hot-swappable.
• The target node must be at the LOADER prompt before adding or replacing the code dump module.
• You must have received two X9170 core dump modules; one for each controller.
• All other components in the storage system must be functioning properly; if not, you must contact technical
support.
Steps
1. If you are not already grounded, properly ground yourself.
2. If you are replacing a failed core dump module, locate and remove it:
