Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2 Server Node Hot-
Pluggable Components
This section describes replacing hot-pluggable components for the Oracle Database Appliance
X3-2/X4-2/X5-2.
If you have Oracle Database Appliance X7-2 series, go to “Oracle Database Appliance X7-2
Series Server Node Hot-Pluggable Components” on page 65. If you have Oracle Database
Appliance X6-2 series, go to “Oracle Database Appliance X6-2 Series Server Node Hot-
Pluggable Components” on page 71. If you have Oracle Database Appliance Version 1, go
to “Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 Hot-Pluggable Components” on page 98.
Hot-pluggable components are those that can be removed and installed while the system and the
server nodes are running. These are designated as Customer Replaceable Units (CRUs).
Note - After a physical insertion or removal action of a storage component (such as a disk or
SAS cable), you should wait before performing the next action to allow the system software to
fully process the event. This could take up to 3 minutes to complete.
Refer to the following table for hot-plug component instructions for your appliance.
