Before you begin
CAUTION:
When replacing a controller, ensure that less than
10 seconds elapse between inserting the controller into a slot and
fully latching it in place. Failing to do so might cause the controller
to fail. If it is not latched within 10 seconds, remove the controller
from the slot and repeat the process.
Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Use proper
anti-static protection:
Keep the replacement component in the ESD bag until needed.
Wear an ESD wrist strap grounded to an unpainted surface of
the chassis.
If an ESD wrist strap is unavailable, touch an unpainted surface
of the chassis before handling the component.
Never touch connector pins.
Using the Storage Management Utility (SMU), save your
configuration settings to a file for backup.
1.
Select Manage > Utilities > Configuration Utilities > Save Config
File.
2.
Click Save Configuration File.
In a dual-controller configuration, the storage system’s Partner
Firmware Upgrade option is enabled by default, so when you
upgrade a controller the system automatically ensures that both
controllers have the most recent version.
Use SMU to verify that Partner Firmware Update is enabled.
1.
Select Monitor > Status > Advanced Settings > Misc
Configuration to view the current setting.
2.
If Partner Firmware Upgrade is disabled, select Manage >
General Config > System Configuration, and then set Partner
Firmware Upgrade to Enabled.

Check Fault/Service Required LED (back):
Amber = Fault condition
Check that the OK LED (back) is off.
Check the event log for errors.

Select Manage > Restart System > Shut Down/Restart, and
select a controller option.
