Servicing CRUs That Do Not Require System
Power Off
This chapter describes how to remove and replace the hot-swappable components in Oracle
Database Appliance. Hot-swappable means that these components can be replaced with the
system powered on.
Note - Hot-swappable components can also be replaced with the system powered off. If you
choose this method, first power off the system as described in Chapter2, “Preparing Oracle
Database Appliance for Service”.
The following topics are covered:
■
“Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2 Server Node Hot-Swappable
Components” on page 39
■
“Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2 Storage Shelf Hot-Swappable
Components” on page 40
■
“Oracle Database Appliance (Original Version) Hot-Swappable
Components” on page 47
Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2 Server Node Hot-
Swappable Components
This section describes replacing hot-swappable components for the Oracle Database Appliance
X3-2, Oracle Database Appliance X4-2, and Oracle Database Appliance X5-2 for service. If
you have Oracle Database Appliance (original version), go to “Oracle Database Appliance
(Original Version) Hot-Swappable Components” on page 47.
Hot-swappable components are those that can be removed and installed while the system and
the server nodes are running without requiring any administrative tasks. These are designated as
Customer Replaceable Units (CRUs).
