HP MSA2000/P2000 nl Drive Module nl Replacement Instructions Abstract This document details procedures for replacing failed drive modules in HP MSA2000- and P2000-family controller and drive enclosures. Read this entire document before replacing a drive. Incorrectly removing a operational, failing, or failed drive from an enclosure might cause data loss. © Copyright 2012, 2013 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. HP Part Number: 712258-002 Published: April 2013 Edition: 2 *712258-002* Before you begin • Before proceeding, check the following: ◦ Confirm that the drive is a member of a fault-tolerant configuration that permits removing one or more drives without risking data loss. ◦ If multiple drives have failed and need replacing, determine how many drives can be replaced at the same time. The number of drives that can fail and be replaced without data loss is determined by the fault-tolerance level of the configuration. For additional information on replacing drives, go to the following HP websites: ◦ MSA2000 G2 Guided Troubleshooting: http://h20584.www2.hp.com/hpgt/guides/ select?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=12169& prodSeriesId=3971509 ◦ P2000 G3 MSA Guided Troubleshooting: http://www.hp.com/go/p2000/ troubleshooting ◦ User manual for your MSA product model: http://www.hp.com/go/hpsc • Leave failed modules in the enclosure until you are ready to install the replacement module. Removing a module from an operational enclosure significantly changes air flow within the enclosure. Openings must be populated for the enclosure to cool properly. • Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Keep parts in electrostatic containers until needed and ensure you are properly grounded when touching static-sensitive components. • Use care when handling drives. Drives are sensitive electromechanical devices that can be permanently damaged through improper handling. Keep drives in their original, protective packaging until installation. • The replacement drive module must be of the same type, and possess capacity equal to or greater than the one being replaced.
