Replacing a disk drive

Before you begin

Always use proper antistatic protection as described in the documentation that shipped with your system.

Do not remove more than one disk drive or drive blank from an operating DS2500. Doing so impacts

air flow of the enclosure, and may cause data loss.

HP recommends installing a disk of equal or greater capacity, or a drive blank, as soon as possible.

Prevent possible data loss by verifying that the disk to be removed is in a failed state.

IMPORTANT:

When the system boots, HP-UX retrieves the loop ID and WWN of each disk and stores the information

for disk authentication. When you replace a disk drive, the authentication fails because the WWN has

changed. You must use fcmsutil to instruct the FC driver to ignore the authentication.

Removing a disk drive

RecordtheloopIDofthediskdrivetobereplaced.UseTable 12 to determine the loop ID based on the

enclosure ID and the bay in which the disk drive resides.
