Note When a disk module is replaced, the new disk inherits the group properties of the original disk. For example, if you replace a disk that was part of volume group 1, the replacement will also become part of volume group 1. If the disk is a replacement for a global hot spare or an unassigned disk, the replacement will become a global hot spare or an unassigned disk. A special feature called drive lockout prevents unsupported disk drives from being used in the disk array. If an unsupported disk drive is installed in the disk array, the drive will be failed. Locked out drives will be indicated with a special drive status (0x1B). Removing a Disk Module or Filler Module 1. Unlock and open the disk enclosure door. 2. If removing a disk module, insert the plug end of your ESD wrist strap in the disk enclosure ESD socket (A in Figure 90). 3. Release the module by squeezing the latch tab (B in Figure 90) and sliding the module part way out of the enclosure. CAUTION While the disk is spinning, it is vulnerable to damage. Wait for the disk to stop spinning (about 15 seconds) before fully removing the module from the enclosure. WARNING To avoid electric shock hazard, do not touch the backplane or adjacent drive electronics when removing and inserting disks. 4. Slide the module out of the slot until you can grasp the handle (C). Support the disk module with your other hand around the enclosed side. Note When removing adjacent disk modules, removing them from right to left improves access to successive modules. 292 Disk Enclosure Modules
