Chapter 12 Installing, Removing, and Replacing

Replacing the 5U Library Control Module

Dell PowerVault ML6000 User’s Guide

302

a

If your library consists of only the 5U Library Control Module, do

not remove the plates.

b

If you plan to stack the 5U Library Control Module at the top of

the library, and if a 9U Library Expansion Module is located

below it, remove the 5U Library Control Module’s bottom cover

plate.

c

If you plan to stack the 5U Library Control Module in the middle

of the library, remove both the top and bottom cover plates.

d

If you plan to stack the 5U Library Control Module at the bottom

of the library, and if a 9U Library Expansion Module is located

above it, remove the 5U Library Control Module’s top cover

plate.

3

Remove the LCB from the removed 5U Library Control Module and

set it aside.
The LCB stores information about the library’s contents and

configuration, so you will probably want to install this LCB in the

new 5U Library Control Module. For details about removing the

LCB, see

Removing and Replacing the Library Control Blade and

LCB Compact Flash Card

on page 320.

4

If the library configuration includes 9U Library Expansion Modules

below the 5U Library Control Module, install them in the library

now.

5

Install the new 5U Library Control Module in the library. Lift the 5U

Library Control Module and, from the front of the library, place it in

the desired location.

Caution:

Before removing the 5U Library Control Module’s

bottom cover plate, the robot assembly must be

parked as described in

Preparing to Remove or

Replace a Module

on page 277.

Note:

If you plan to stack the 5U Library Control Module on top

of a 9U Expansion Module, be sure to park the robot in the

5U Library Control Module first.
