Hot-Swapping the AT-FCX module
Hot-Swapping the AT-FCX module
About the AT-FCX
module
The AT-FCX module controls the external disk shelf LEDs. The module
communicates with your storage appliance through the Fibre Channel port that is
connected to the backplane of the disk shelf.
Location of the AT-
FCX module
The module is plugged into the backplane at the back of the disk shelf enclosure.
Assumptions about
this procedure
The assumptions about this procedure are that the AT-FCX modules on the disk
shelf use multipath connections to your storage appliance and that you are hot-
swapping an AT-FCX with another AT-FCX.
Caution
If you attempt to hot-swap the AT-FCX on a disk shelf that does not have
multipath connections, you will lose all access to the drives on this disk shelf as
well as those below it.
