Installing the Replacement FCSA
Note: Whenever you handle a FCSA, follow standard operating practices to avoid damage to the
equipment. Review the standard operating practices documented in the Fibre Channel
ServerNet Adapter Installation and Support Guide.
Unpack and inspect the FCSA:
Put on an ESD wrist strap and attach the grounding clip to the antistatic mat.
a.
Place the package containing the FCSA on the antistatic mat.
b.
Open the packing container and remove the FCSA.
Caution: When opening the packing container, be careful not to cut into the ESD
protective bag.
c.
Visually inspect the FCSA and the backplane connector for damage. Use a flashlight, if
necessary, to check for bent or broken pins. If the FCSA is damaged or has a damaged
connector-pin socket, do not install it.
Caution: If you insert a FCSA that has a damaged socket into a slot, that FCSA's
backplane pins and the connectors on other adapter boards also inserted
into that slot can be damaged. Moving a damaged adapter from slot to slot
can damage other slots and other adapters.
