Servicing the Disk Backplane (FRU)
The following section describes how to service the disk backplane. The disk backplane is
a field-replaceable unit (FRU). For more information about FRUs, see “Illustrated Parts
Breakdown” on page 20 and “Field-Replaceable Units” on page 22.
Caution - The disk backplane should be removed and replaced only by authorized Oracle
Service personnel.
Caution - Ensure that all power is removed from the server before removing or installing the
disk backplane. You must disconnect the power cables before performing this procedure.
Caution - These procedures require that you handle components that are sensitive to
electrostatic discharge. This sensitivity can cause the component to fail. To avoid damage,
ensure that you follow electrostatic discharge safety measures and antistatic practices. See
“Electrostatic Discharge Safety” on page 52.
