2-20 Compaq ProLiant ML530 Servers Maintenance and Service Guide Hot-Plug SCSI Hard Drives CAUTION: Before removing or replacing a hot-plug SCSI hard drive, the affected drive must not be in use. See "LED Indicators, Hot-Plug SCSI Hard Drive" in Chapter 4 for more information. To remove a hot-plug SCSI hard drive: 1. Perform the preparation procedures. See "Hot-Pluggable Device" earlier in this chapter. 2. Open the front bezel door (tower model only). 3. Slide the release button . 4. Pull the release lever that holds the hard drive in place. 5. Pull the hard drive from the cage. IMPORTANT: Remove or replace only one hot-plug SCSI hard drive at a time. The controller relies on other hard drives to reconstruct data on the replaced hard drive. Drive reconstruction is active when the drive online LED is flashing green. 6. Insert another hot-plug SCSI hard drive or a hard drive blank into the empty hard drive bay, pushing the drive until it is firmly seated. CAUTION: Hard drive blanks must fill unused hard drive bays to ensure proper airflow. NOTE: When a hard drive configured for fault tolerance is replaced, the replacement hard drive will automatically begin reconstruction. Drive reconstruction is active when the drive online LED is flashing green. Figure 2-13. Removing a hot-plug SCSI hard drive 3 1 2

Hot-Plug SCSI Hard Drives
CAUTION:
Before removing or replacing a hot-plug SCSI hard drive, the affected drive must not
be in use. See
LED Indicators, Hot-Plug SCSI Hard Drive
in Chapter 4 for more information.
To remove a hot-plug SCSI hard drive:
1.
Perform the preparation procedures. See
Hot-Pluggable Device
earlier in this chapter.
2.
Open the front bezel door (tower model only).
3.
Slide the release button
.
4.
Pull the release lever
that holds the hard drive in place.
5.
Pull the hard drive
from the cage.
IMPORTANT:
Remove or replace only one hot-plug SCSI hard drive at a time. The controller relies on
other hard drives to reconstruct data on the replaced hard drive. Drive reconstruction is active when the
drive online LED is flashing green.
6.
Insert another hot-plug SCSI hard drive or a hard drive blank into the empty hard drive
bay, pushing the drive until it is firmly seated.
CAUTION:
Hard drive blanks must fill unused hard drive bays to ensure proper airflow.
NOTE:
When a hard drive configured for fault tolerance is replaced, the replacement hard drive will
automatically begin reconstruction. Drive reconstruction is active when the drive online LED is flashing
green.
