How to Replace a StorEdge T3/T3+ Array Chassis

Use this procedure to replace a StorEdge T3/T3+ array chassis. This procedure assumes that you are retaining all FRUs other than the chassis and the backplane. To replace the chassis, you must replace both the chassis and the backplane because these components are manufactured as one part.


Note -

Only trained, qualified service providers should use this procedure to replace a StorEdge T3/T3+ array chassis.


  1. Detach the submirrors on the StorEdge T3/T3+ array that is connected to the chassis you are replacing in order to stop all I/O activity to this StorEdge T3/T3+ array.

    For more information, see your Solstice DiskSuite or VERITAS Volume Manager documentation.

  2. Replace the chassis/backplane.

    For the procedure on replacing a StorEdge T3/T3+ chassis, see the Sun StorEdge T3 and T3+ Array Field Service Manual.

  3. Reattach the submirrors to resynchronize them.
