Hardware maintenance schedule
DANGER
The procedures in this manual are for qualified service personnel.
The NetIron CES and NetIron CER 2000 Series device requires minimal maintenance for its
hardware components. Brocade recommends cleaning the fiber-optic connectors on a fiber-optic
port and the connected fiber cable each time you disconnect the cable.
Otherwise, you can install or replace the following hardware components as needed:
• Copper and fiber optic modules
• Power supplies
• Fan tray
• 2 x10-Gigabit Ethernet module (only on the NetIron CES 2024C, NetIron CES 2024F, NetIron
CER 2024C, and NetIron CER 2024F models).
Power supply replacement
You can replace a power supply while the NetIron CES and NetIron CER 2000 Series device is
powered on and running. The power supplies are located in slots at the rear of the device.
This section provides information about the following topics:
• Installation precautions and warnings
• Determining which power supply has failed, if necessary.
• Replacing a power supply.
DANGER
Power supplies are hot swappable. However, Brocade recommends that you disconnect the
power supply from AC power before installing or removing the supply. The device can be running
while a power supply is being installed or removed, but the power supply itself should not be
connected to a power source. Otherwise, you could be injured or the power supply or other parts
of the device could be damaged.
