Attention:
v
Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap to the front ESD jack, to the rear ESD jack, or to
an unpainted metal surface of your hardware to prevent the electrostatic discharge from damaging
your hardware.
v
When you use an ESD wrist strap, follow all electrical safety procedures. An ESD wrist strap is
used for static control. It does not increase or decrease your risk of receiving electric shock when
using or working on electrical equipment.
v
If you do not have an ESD wrist strap, just prior to removing the product from ESD packaging
and installing or replacing hardware, touch an unpainted metal surface of the system for a
minimum of 5 seconds. If at any point in this service process you move away from the system, it
is important to once again discharge yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface for at least 5
seconds before you continue with the service process.
16.
Remove the drive from the static-protective package and place it on an ESD mat.
Removing a hot-spare disk drive or solid-state drive from the 8284-21A
or 8284-22A system with the power turned on in IBM i
Find information about removing a hot-spare disk drive or solid-state drive (SSD) from a system with the
IBM i operating system or IBM i logical partition that controls the drive location powered on.
To remove a disk drive or solid-state drive from a system, complete the following steps:
1.
Ensure that you have the electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap on and that the ESD clip is
connected to an unpainted metal surface. If not, do so now.
2.
Choose from the following options:
v
If you are removing a disk drive in a system, continue with step 3.
v
If you are removing a solid-state drive in an expanded function system, continue with step 11 on
page 77.
3.
On the console, select the drive that you want to remove, and then press
Enter
.
Important:
v
When you press
Enter
, after your selected time delay, the service indicator light comes on (solid)
for 18 seconds. You then have 18 seconds to unlock and remove the drive. You can set an
appropriate time delay of 01 - 19 minutes to allow adequate time to access the disk drive or
solid-state drive.
v
If the service indicator light was already turned on due to a failed device, you will not see a
change in the service indicator light until after the first 18 seconds. You will need to wait until the
service indicator light goes off and then turns back on (solid). You will have two cycles of the light
turning on (solid) to unlock and remove the drive.
4.
Ensure that you have the electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap attached. If not, attach it now.
5.
When the identify LED turns on solid, unlock the drive bay handle (B) by pressing the handle latch
(A)
and pulling it out toward you, as shown in Figure 74 on page 76 and Figure 75 on page 76. If the
handle is not all the way out, the solid-state drive cannot slide out of the system.
