HP StorageWorks DAT Internal Autoloader Getting Started Guide

Replacing your autoloader
If your autoloader proves to be faulty and cannot be repaired and it is still covered by the
original warranty, it will be replaced.
To disconnect your autoloader
1 Unpack your replacement drive, and retain the packaging.
2 Power off the server and any other devices that are on the same SCSI bus.
3 Remove the cover from the server, see page 17.
4 Observing normal anti-static precautions (see page 17) remove any screws that are holding
the autoloader in place.
5 Disconnect the autoloader from the server’s power and SCSI cables and slide it carefully out
of the mounting bay.
6 Put the autoloader into the packaging that contained the replacement device.
7 Return the faulty autoloader to your local HP Service Center. Instructions on where to return
faulty devices will be shipped with the replacement device.
Note If you are not replacing the device immediately, you should insert a blanking plate into the
empty bay. Replace the cover on the server and secure with screws, as appropriate.
To reconnect your autoloader
Follow the step-by-step instructions in this Getting Started guide.
