Replacing a RAID Controller

Make sure that the replacement RAID controller has the same firmware
revision level as the controller that is running.

In the menu pane, choose

Storage | RAID System | Logical/Physical view

.

Once you determine which controller has failed, make note of its position.
Power down the appliance for this procedure; NewsShare NAS software will
not be available during the replacement.

>>> The RAID controller cannot be replaced while NewsShare NAS is powered

up and running. To replace a RAID controller, power down the system.

Power down the NewsShare NAS. This means both nodes and the storage
subsystem. Remove the fibre channel cable from the storage controller. (Once
a controller has failed, the node that it is connected to will fail as well; the
system can no longer see the storage device and needs to do a failover.)

To remove the canister, do the following:

1. Unlatch the two ejector levers on the back of the canister. Loosen the captive

screws, as shown in Step 1.
