This section provides instructions to service customer-replaceable units (CRUs) in the appliance rack. Before starting any service procedure, read and follow the guidelines in Section 4.2, “Preparing Oracle Virtual Compute Appliance X3-2 for Service”.
Some service procedures may require you to power down Oracle Virtual Compute Appliance X3-2. Perform the following steps to manually power down the system.
Powering down the system
Press the Power button on the Sun Server X3-2 compute nodes in order to shut them down gracefully.
Press the Power button on the Sun Server X3-2 management nodes in order to shut them down gracefully.
Once the Sun Server X3-2 machines are powered off, you can proceed to power off the storage appliance.
Press the Power button on the storage server heads attached to the chassis of the storage device.
Press the Power button on both Oracle Fabric Interconnect F1-15 Director Switches.
Toggle the rack Power switches to the Off position.
The Ethernet and InfiniBand switches do not have power switches. They power off when power is removed, by way of the power distribution unit (PDU) or at the breaker in the data center.
Returning the system to operation
Toggle the power distribution unit (PDU) circuit breakers of both PDUs to the On position.
Wait at least two minutes to allow the PDUs to complete their power-on sequence.
The Ethernet and InfiniBand switches and storage server heads are powered on with the PDUs.
Press the Power button on each Oracle Fabric Interconnect F1-15 Director Switch.
Wait until the Status LED stops blinking and is solid green, indicating the system has finished booting.
Press the Power button on the Sun Server X3-2 management nodes.
The management node that completes booting first assumes the master role.
When the management nodes are up, press the Power button on the Sun Server X3-2 compute nodes.
When all compute nodes are up, verify the status of all system components in Oracle VM Manager.
If no components are in error state, the appliance is ready to resume normal operation.
