Installing or Replacing D-brick2 Drive Carrier Module
This section explains how to install or replace a drive carrier in the D-brick2 storage
module, as follows:
•
“Installing D-brick2 Drive Carrier Module” on page 221
•
“Replacing D-brick2 Drive Carrier Module” on page 226
Caution:
Observe all ESD precautions when handling modules and components. Avoid
contact with backplane components and module connectors. Failure to observe ESD
precautions could damage the equipment.
Caution:
Do not remove a drive carrier unless a replacement or dummy carrier can be
immediately added. The system must not be run without all modules in place. Any
unused drive bays must be fitted with a dummy carrier module.
Installing D-brick2 Drive Carrier Module
Note the following:
•
All disk drive bays must be filled with either a drive carrier module or a dummy
drive module; no bay should be left completely empty.
•
The drives in bays 1/1 and 4/4 of the D-brick2 storage module are required for
enclosure management; these bays must always contain disk drives.
To install a new disk drive module in the storage system, follow these steps:
1.
Ensure that you have enough drive carrier modules and dummy modules to occupy
all bays.
2. Carefully open the bag containing the drive carrier module.
Warning:
The disk drive handle might have become unlatched in shipment and
might spring open when you open the bag. As you open the bag, keep it a safe
distance from your face.
