Replacing a ZS3-4 PCIe Card or Riser
![Caution Caution](graphics/caution.gif) | Caution -
This procedure requires that you handle components that are sensitive to
static discharge, which can cause the component to fail. To avoid damage,
wear an antistatic wrist strap and use an antistatic mat when handling
components.
|
Go to the Maintenance > Hardware screen of the BUI and click the
right-arrow icon
on the controller, and then click Slots to locate the
faulted component. All HBAs must be of the same type. Ensure that you upgrade
your system software before installing a newly-released HBA.
-
Shut down the controller using one of the power-off methods described in
Powering Off the Controller.
-
Disconnect the AC power cords from the rear panel of the storage
controller.
![Caution Caution](graphics/caution.gif) | Caution -
Because 3.3 VDC standby power is always present in the system, you
must unplug the power cords before accessing any cold-serviceable
components.

-
Extend the controller from the rack as described in Extending the Controller from the Rack.
-
Remove the top cover as described in Removing the Controller Top Cover.
-
Locate the PCIe card position in the storage controller, see ZS3-4 PCIe I/O Cards.
-
To replace the PCIe card:
-
Disengage the PCIe card slot crossbar from its locked position and
rotate the crossbar into an upright position.
-
Remove the retaining screw that holds the PCIe card to the
chassis.
-
Carefully remove the PCIe card from the connector and clean the
slot with filtered, compressed air if necessary.
-
Install the replacement PCIe card into the PCIe card slot.
-
Install the retaining screw to hold the PCIe card to the
chassis.
-
Return the crossbar to its closed and locked position.
-
To install the top cover:
-
Place the top cover on the chassis (1) so that it is forward of
the rear of the storage controller by about an inch (2.5 cm).
-
Slide the top cover toward the rear of the chassis (2) until it
seats.
-
Press down on the cover with both hands until both latches
engage.
-
Push the release tabs on the side of each rail and slowly push the storage
controller into the rack, making sure no cables obstruct the path of the
controller.
-
Reconnect all cables to their original ports, referring to the labels
previously added as a guide. For cabling details, see the
Oracle
ZFS Storage Appliance Cabling Guide
.
-
Connect the power cords to the power supplies.
-
Verify that standby power is on, indicated by the Power/OK status
indicator flashing on the front panel about two minutes after the power
cords are plugged in.
-
Use a pen or other pointed object to press and release the recessed Power
button on the storage controller front panel. The Power/OK status indicator
next to the Power button lights and remains lit.
-
Connect data cables to the PCIe card, routing them through the cable
management arm.
-
Go to the Maintenance > Hardware screen of the BUI, and click the
right-arrow icon
on the controller. Then, click Slot to verify the
status of the new component. The online icon
should be green.
-
If a fault does not self-clear, see Repairing Active Problems.
-
Install the disk shelf as described in
Installation Prerequisites and Hardware Overviews in
Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Installation
Guide
and connect the expansion storage as
described in Connecting to Attached Storage.
