Component Types and Service Classifications

Some components in the modular system are removable and serviceable.

Serviceable components are two types:

• CRUs can be removed and replaced by any qualified technician.

• FRUs must be removed and installed only by authorized Oracle service personnel.

Components have three service classifications:

• Hot-pluggable – Using the proper software commands, you can install or remove hot-pluggable components while the modular system is running.

• Hot-swappable – You can install or remove hot-swappable components while the modular system is running, without using any software commands.

• Cold-swappable – You must remove power from the modular system to service the components.
