Active Replacement

In active replacement the Solaris OS must be configured to allow the component to
be replaced. Active replacement has four stages:

“Removing a FRU From a Domain” on page 4-4

“Removing and Replacing a FRU” on page 4-5

“Adding a FRU Into a Domain” on page 4-5

“Verifying Hardware Operation” on page 4-6

Note –

If the hard disk drive is the boot device, the hard disk will have to be

replaced using cold replacement procedures. However, active replacement can be
used if the boot disk can be isolated from the Solaris OS by disk mirroring software
and other software.
