Replacing a CE Caution: Before proceeding, make sure you are properly grounded using, for instance, a wrist strap with an attached alligator clip that is connected to an appropriate ground To replace a CE: Step 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Action Shut down the CE as described on page 9-8. Power off the CE. Detach and label the following cables from the CE: • The power cord. • The MIC fiber cables by squeezing the connectors to unclip them and detaching them. • The video cable. If the CE is rackmounted, remove it from the rack. Prepare the new CE for installation, as described in Chapter 1 of the HP Netserver AA Solution Installation Guide. If required, fasten the rackmount brackets and install it in the rack. Power up the CE. Notes Follow the procedure given in Chapter 2 of the Endurance Installation Guide. Updating MIC BIOS, FPGA, and Microcode The MIC BIOS, FPGA, and microcode on the CEs and IOPs must be identical on all CEs and IOPs for the Endurance server to function properly.

Before proceeding
,
make sure you are properly grounded
using,
for instance, a wrist strap with an attached alligator clip that is
connected to an appropriate ground
To replace a CE:
Updating MIC BIOS, FPGA, and Microcode
The MIC BIOS, FPGA, and microcode on the CEs and IOPs must be
identical
on all CEs and
IOPs for the Endurance server to function properly. Use the MTCFLASH Utility, described in
Chapter 7
, to upgrade the microcode revision levels.
Step
Action
Notes
1
Shut down the CE as described on
page 9-8
.
