Replacing the DXi690x Array or Expansion Module Rails

Replacing the DXi690x Array or Expansion Module Rails

Note:

NetApp Co-Branded EMEA installations do not follow the rack 

installation procedures below. NetApp Co-Branded EMEA Array and 

Expansion Module rails follow the same procedures as the DXi6802 

disk backup system (see 

Replacing the DXi6802 Array or Expansion 

Module Rails

 on page 8).

Follow the steps below to replace the DXi690x Array or Expansion Module rails:

1

Removing the DXi690x Array or Expansion Module from the Rack

 on 

page 12

2

Installing the DXi690x Array or Expansion Module Rack Mounting Rails

 on 

page 15

3

Installing the DXi690x Array or Expansion Module

 on page 16

Removing the DXi690x 

Array or Expansion 

Module from the Rack

To remove the DXi690x Array or Expansion Module from the rack:

1

Shut down the DXi690x system (see 

Shutting Down the System

 on page 2).

2

Remove all power and SAS cables from the rear of the Array or Expansion 

Module. Make sure to label the cables so they can be easily identified when 

they are re-connected to the module after the replacement procedure is 

complete.

3

Remove the end caps from each side of the Array or Expansion Module.

4

Remove the 10-32 x 3/4 in. SEM screw with washer on each side of the Array 

or Expansion Module’s front panel (see 

Figure 11

).
