3. Identify a transfer location. This is an area, if available, where the current
chassis/rack and new replacement chassis/rack can be placed side by side.
This area should also have space for the original switch components (i.e.,
leafs, spines, management modules, fan trays and power supplies) that
need to be re-installed into the new chassis.
4. Remove the front and rear rack doors. Save these for the new chassis/rack.
5. Remove the power to the rack.
6. Remove all Ethernet, InfiniBand and management cabling from the switch.
Make sure that all cable bend radii precautions are observed (bend radii can
be found in IBM System Cluster 1350/iDataPlex Cabling Guidelines). Place
all cables, organized by type, beneath the raised floor or in the overhead
cable troughs.
7. Determine the best direction for rack removal (i.e., Hot aisle or Cold aisle)
based on available space.
8. Replace any floor tiles with access cutouts with tiles that have no cutouts, or
place a safety cone over tile cutout.
9. Prepare the rack to be moved. Raise leveling pads. Remove all external
hardware such as tilt parts that will inhibit easy movement of the rack.
REINSPECT THE RACK. MAKE SURE ALL CUSTOMER-ATTACHED
CABLING HAS BEEN REMOVED.
10. Carefully push the rack out of the cluster suite and move to the transfer
location.
11. Remove all covers from both racks. Save for reinstallation.
12. Remove all power components PDU, rack power supplies and cabling. Set
aside all attachment hardware to be reinstalled. Pay attention to where
current components are located. DO NOT REMOVE THE POWER
SUPPLIES FROM THE CHASSIS AT THIS TIME.
13. Install all removed components from the original chassis/rack and install into
the replacement chassis/rack using existing mounting hardware.
14. Attach all power cables.
15. Starting at the bottom of the original chassis remove, inspect and reinstall
into replacement chassis/rack all fan modules, power supply modules, leaf,
spine and management modules. INSPECT FOR BENT PINS WITHIN NEW
FRU CHASSIS AND ON ALL COMPONENTS TO BE REINSTALLED.
INSPECTION OF ALL OF THE ABOVE COMPONENTS SHROUDS FOR
DEFORMATIES WHERE PINS INSERT THROUGH SHROUDS, COCKED
SHROUDS OBVIOUS MISSING COMPONENTS OR BROKEN
COMPONENTS ON ALL ITEMS TO BE INSTALLED INTO REPLACEMENT
FRU CHASSIS.
