CSS components In the PRIMERGY TX150 S7 server, the following components are considered to be CSS components: – Hot-plug components – Hot-plug power supply units – Hot-plug hard disk drives You can expand or replace the hot-plug components during operation. – Non-hot-plug components – Memory modules – System fan – Expansion cards These components can be changed by you in the event of an error. Expansions and upgrades may only be carried out by authorized specialist personnel.
CSS components 8.1 Hot-plug components Hot-plug components This section describes how to handle hot-plug components and how to modify your server hardware (e.g. adding/replacing hot-plug power supply units). The hot-plug procedure increases the availability of system operation and guarantees a high degree of data integrity and failsafe performance. 8.1.
Hot-plug components 8.1.1.1 CSS components Replacing the hot-plug power supply unit 0 / Figure 19: Unlocking and removing the power supply unit V CAUTION! When replacing a non-defective hot-plug power supply unit in a nonredundant configuration (only one power supply unit), the server must be switched off first. Ê Remove the power cable from the installed power supply unit.
CSS components 8.1.1.2 Hot-plug components Adding a second hot-plug power supply unit A second hot-plug power supply unit can be added to ensure a redundant power supply. If one power supply unit fails, the second power supply unit ensures that operation continues unimpaired. The slot for the second hot-plug power supply unit contains a dummy module, which must be removed before installing the second power supply unit.
Hot-plug components 8.1.2 CSS components Hot-plug HDD modules The hard disk drives which can be ordered for the PRIMERGY TX150 S7 are supplied already mounted in an installation frame so that defective hard disk drives can be replaced and new hard disk drives can be added during operation. The hard disk drive and installation frame together make up the HDD module. V CAUTION! ● The hard disk drive must not be removed from the installation frame by anyone except a service technician.
CSS components V Hot-plug components ● Do not use the unit in extremely hot or cold locations, or locations with extreme temperature changes. ● Never attempt to disassemble the hard disk unit. CAUTION! Hybrid operation using both SAS and SATA hard disk drives within one drive cage is not supported.

Hot-plug components 8.1.2.3 CSS components Handling hard disk drives and HDD modules Hard disk drives incorporated in the HDD modules are highly sensitive electromagnetic devices and must be handled with great care. Incorrect handling can cause partial or total failure of the hard disk drives. These failures can result in data errors and to a loss of data or to total corruption of the hard disk drive.

Ê Push the handle of the HDD module as far as it will go in the direction of the arrow (2) until the locking mechanism is engaged.
CSS components 8.1.2.7 V Hot-plug components Removing the HDD module CAUTION! ● Only remove a HDD module during operation if the drive is not currently being accessed. Observe the control LEDs for the corresponding HDD modules (see "Hard disk drive indicators" on page 66).
Non-hot-plug components 8.2 V 102 CSS components Non-hot-plug components CAUTION! ● The actions described in this section may only be performed by personnel with the appropriate technical training. (The device can be seriously damaged if it is opened without authorization or if repairs are attempted by untrained personnel.) ● Before installing/removing memory to/from the server, turn off the server, all peripheral devices, and any other connected devices.
CSS components Non-hot-plug components If a defective non-hot-plug component is detected (for more information, see chapter "Starting up and operation" on page 59 and the "PRIMERGY ServerViewSuite Local Service Concept - LSC" manual on the PRIMERGY ServerView Suite DVD 2), proceed as follows: Ê Exit all applications and shut down the server properly (see section "Switching the server on and off" on page 71).
