9. Reconfigure the node as described in Step 4. The warm failover feature will now automatically restore the original configuration and licenses. The procedure is complete; you may omit the final step. 10. Restore the previously saved configuration. See Restoring the Configuration Settings. Replacing a Secondary Node CAUTION: Each VLS12000 node weighs 17.9 kg (39.5 lb) full. At least two people are required to lift and move each node. To replace a secondary node: 1. Remove the existing node from the rack: a. Power off the system. See Powering Off the System. b. From the back of the node, make a note of all cable connections then disconnect the cables. c. From the front of the node, loosen the captive thumbscrews until the thumbscrews are free of the rack. d. Pull the node out from the rack until it stops. e. Squeeze the release brackets (see Figure 42), then pull the node free from the rails. 2. Install the new node into the rack. See Installing the VLS Node into a Rack. 3. Reconnect the cables to the new node exactly as they were connected to the previous node. 4. Configure the node. See Configuring the Secondary Nodes 1 through 7. 5. Reboot the system. See Rebooting the System. Ethernet Switches Replacement To replace the 100 Mb Ethernet Switch 2510-24 or the 1 Gb Ethernet Switch 2810-24G: 1. Power off the switch. 2. Make a note of all cable connections to the switch then disconnect the cables. 3. From the front of the switch, loosen the captive thumbscrews until the thumbscrews are free of the rack. 4. Remove the switch from the rack. 5. Install the new switch into the rack. See Installing the 100 Mb Ethernet Switch 2510-24 into a Rack or Installing the 1 Gb Ethernet Switch 2810-24G into a Rack. NOTE: If you are replacing a 2824 with a 2810-24G, you will need to install new rails. The 2810-24G cannot use the 2824 rails. 6. Reconnect all cables to the new switch exactly as they were connected to the failed switch. HP StorageWorks 12000 Gateway Virtual Library System User Guide 207
