Maintaining the Sun Fire X4100 Server

FIGURE 3-36

Opening the Hard Disk Drive Latch

Installation is the reverse of this procedure.

Note –

If the HDDs were previously configured as a mirrored RAID 1 array, an

automatic resynchronization is invoked and the contents are automatically rebuilt
from the rest of the array with no need to reconfigure the RAID parameters. If the
bad HDD was configured as a hot-spare, the new HDD is automatically configured
as a new hot-spare.

Note –

When you install an HDD, open its securing latch before you push the drive

into the bay. Push the HDD into the bay until it stops, then close the securing latch
to fully engage the connector on the HDD backplane.

Note –

For Sun Fire X4100 servers with the factory-configured option for four

hard disk drives:

You must remove the top two hard disk drives before reinstalling

the front cover to provide clearance for the front cover to slide on the chassis.
Reinstall the top two hard disk drives after you reinstall the front cover.
