HAPTER 4: INSTALLING MODULES
Removing Modules
This section describes how to remove system modules from the Cuda 12000
chassis. All system modules have ejector levers and require the same removal
process. You can use the procedure in this section to remove all Cuda 12000
Management modules. These modules are hot-swappable; you can remove
and replace modules with the power on.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the system, be sure that you are properly
grounded with an ESD protection device before beginning this procedure. Be
sure to have a shielded antistatic bag available in which to store the module.
You need a #1 Phillips screwdriver to remove a system module from the
chassis.
To remove a system module from the chassis:
1. Ensure that you are properly grounded by wearing an ESD protective
device.
2. Loosen the two captive screws that secure the module in place, as shown
in Figure 4-9.
3. Release the module from the backplane by moving the levers to the
outward position, as shown in Figure 4-9. As you move the levers to the
outward position, you should feel the module connectors release from
the backplane connectors.
4. Grasp the ejector levers and pull the module out of the slot.
5. Do one of the following to ensure that the slot does not remain open
(empty):
■ Install another module in the slot, as described in “Installing System
Modules” on page 87.
■ If you are not installing another module in the slot, install a filler panel
into the empty slot, as described in “Filler Panels” on page 80.
CAUTION: Always remove the module carefully to ensure that the board
components on the module that you are installing do not scrape against the
adjacent faceplates.
