About this document
This installation manual explains how to replace malfunction HDD(s) of the Barco ICMP (Integrated Cinema
Media Processor) installed in the field.
Clarification of term “ICMP” used in this document
When referring in this document to the term “ICMP” means that the content is applicable for following Barco
products:
• ICMP
• ICMP-X
CAUTION: Not withstanding the HDDs are technical hot swappable it is strongly advised to switch
off the projector prior to replace the HDD.
Removing a HDD while power is on will degrade the RAID configuration, inserting a HDD will cause
a performance drop in case of a playout, putting a set of HDD’s in the projector one by one when
power is on might trigger an unnecessary rebuild, …
In case only one HDD is replaced (RAID degraded mode) the ICMP automatically starts with the
RAID recovery process after the malfunction HDD is replaced. The red LED of the HDD which has
to be rebuilt is blinking. Rebuild process takes about 3 to 4 hours for 1TB HDD and could takes
about 13 to 14 hours for 4TB HDD. Once the RAID is completed the red LED turns off.
CAUTION: It's strongly recommended to complete the RAID recovery process prior to starting a
show. This to ensure that the content integrity is preserved and that the show is not interrupted.
In case more than one HDD must be replaced, the RAID is 'broken'. All content will be lost. Once
the HDDs are replaced, when the projector restarts, the ICMP automatically creates a new (empty)
RAID 5 configuration.

1.1 General
Document overview
This document gives a brief introduction into the ICMP HDD, provides in a table a summary of all types of
HDD swaps available, describes the LED status of the HDD and describes the HDD removal and installation
instructions.
The latest version of this document can be downloaded from the Barco website www.barco. com or from the
secured Barco website https://my.barco.com.
About ICMP
The ICMP is a removable electronic assembly situated in the Card Cage of the projector. The ICMP stores,
decrypts and decodes DCI cinema content and delivers it to the projector in a usable format, all integrated into
a single assembly placed directly in the projector.
Image 1-1
1 ICMP
2 HDDs for ICMP
There are several ICMP types (ICMP with Displayport, ICMP with HDMI 2.0, ICMP-X,...). For detail
information about the ICMP or Barco digital cinema projector refer to the manual of the projector which is also
available on the Barco website.
GEN1 and GEN2 storage controller
The ICMP-X is equipped with a GEN2 storage controller while the legacy ICMP has an GEN1 storage
controller.
The GEN2 storage controller supports SSD and uses another disk initialization type. This implies that HDDs
initialized for the legacy ICMP (with GEN1 storage controller) are not interchangeable with the ICMP-X without
re-initialization. Note that a re-initialization process result in lost of content. See “What are the possible HDD
swaps ”, page 11.
It’s possible to upgrade an ICMP with a GEN2 storage controller. For more info about the upgrade kit and
instructions see Barco website.
How to recognize an ICMP-X or an upgraded ICMP with GEN2 storage controller
At the first glance ICMP-X is very similar to ICMP (the previous generation device) however both devices are
not fully compatible and not interchangeable.
Unlike the previous versions the name of ICMP-X appears on the upper left side of the front face (under the
Barco logo).

An upgraded ICMP with GEN 2 storage controller has a label “SSD READY - RAID GEN2” applied under the
Barco logo). This sticker comes with the upgrade kit; it will only be there when the “upgrader” applied it.
Image 1-3
It’s useful to recognize an ICMP from an ICMP-X or upgraded ICMP to know which HDDs can be
used without re-initialization.
1.2 ICMP HDD
About ICMP HDD
The three HDDs (local storage) in the ICMP, are set up in a RAID 5 configuration. This storage technique, that
combines multiple HDD components into a logical unit, manages enough redundancy information to continue
to operate properly after the loss of one HDD.
Image 1-4
CAUTION: A RAID 5 configuration with three HDDs allows a maximum loss of one disk. With the
simultaneous loss of more than one HDDs, data is lost and the RAID must be completely initialized
again after replacement of the defect HDDs with new HDDs!
About degraded mode
When a RAID array experiences the failure of one disk, it enters in degraded mode. Content storage and
playback remains available on the ICMP.
R5905769 /04 ICMP/ICMP-X HDD 9
Page 10
HDD(s) on ICMP
CAUTION: The loss of one disk causes no serious consequences on the ICMP. But action must be
taken quickly because the loss of a second disk will make the RAID system broken. The main cause
of the total loss of RAID is due in most cases to the loss of the second disk while the first has not
been rebuilt!
A failed drive should be replaced as soon as possible.
About “RAID recovery” process
The restoration from degraded to normal condition of the RAID 5 system is done automatically. When the
RAID controller detects a new HDD to replace the failed disk the recovery procedure starts automatically.
CAUTION: The automatic process does not work if more than one disk is lost. In that case the RAID
must be completely initialized again!
About RAID broken
When more than one HDD is out of order, the RAID is considered as 'broken' and the content is lost. The failed
HDDs must be changed and a new RAID must be created.
Exchange or re-use of a disk set
It's possible to have several sets of disks with one ICMP or to reuse a complete set of disks coming from
another projector with ICMP.
How to exchange:
• Exchange of HDD set between two ICMPs with the same storage controller:
It is sufficient to insert the three HDDs, from a valid RAID array, and let the system explore the new RAID.
The mounting order of the HDDs and the HDD slots do not matter. Of course, when using HDDs from
another ICMP it is necessary to retrieve from the content distributor the KDMs corresponding to the content
and the new ICMP.
• Exchange of HDD set between two ICMPs with a different storage controller:
After inserting the three HDDs it is necessary to perform a manual RAID initialization with (Web)
Communicator, the Barco projectors configuration software. The RAID initialization command (e.g. in Web
Communicator: Maintenance > Raid Storage) erases any data present on the HDDs and the old content
will be lost. This will only take a short while and after this process, the projector will reboot. You can start
immediately after booting with the ingest of your content.
The problem of non-compatibility between the two generations of storage controllers is also
encountered when installing a new set of hard drives on an ICMP-X. The HDD spare part kits
provided by Barco are configured by default to work with a GEN1 storage controller and it is
necessary to perform a manual RAID initialization when they are deployed on a GEN2 storage
controller.
Label the HDDs with the initialization type (GEN1 or GEN2) to make it visible for which type of
storage controller the disks can be used without requiring a re-initialization and lost of content
HDD storage capacity
Make sure that all HDDs in the ICMP HDD set have the same storage capacity. See label on top of the HDD to
know the storage capacity.
HDD storage
The maximum recommended storage period for the drive in a non-operational environment is 90 days. Drives
should be stored in the original unopened shipping packaging whenever possible. Once the drive is removed
from the original packaging the recommended maximum period between drive operation cycles is 30 days.
During any storage period the drive non-operational temperature, humidity, wet bulb, atmospheric conditions,
shock, vibration, magnetic and electrical field specifications should be followed.

1.3 What are the possible HDD swaps
General
There are several possible scenarios for replacing (exchange) hard drives on the ICMP. The situation is
different depending on the device type (ICMP or ICMP-X) and whether to replace one or more disks.
Continuity of data present on the disks is also impacted depending on the type of exchange. Degraded
operation or RAID initialization may be required.
List of available actions
The following table exposes all possible swaps available concerning HDDs on ICMP:
Replacing drives should always be done while the power is off.

4. Pull the HDD out of its slot.
HDD(s) on ICMP
Image 1-8
To install an HDD, see the following procedure: “Installing a HDD into the ICMP”, page 15.
1.6 Installing a HDD into the ICMP
This procedure assumes that the HDD slot of the ICMP is empty. If not, see procedure “Removing a
HDD from the ICMP”, page 14.
CAUTION: Always use a new empty spare part HDD approved by Barco to replace a malfunction
HDD. Do not use a HDD from another ICMP HDD set.
CAUTION: Always make sure that all HDDs in the ICMP HDD set have the same storage capacity.
See label on top of the HDD to know the storage capacity.
Re-initialization or rebuild of RAID
Installing or exchange one or several HDDs into ICMP has an impact on data presents on the already inserted
drives. RAID integrity depends on the type of HDD swap. Refer to the chapter “What are the possible HDD
swaps ”, page 11.
How to install a HDD ?
1. Ensure that the projector is switched off.
2. Prepare the HDD for insertion by moving the latch towards the left and push the unlock button to open the
handle.
R5905769 /04 ICMP/ICMP-X HDD 15
Page 16

HDD(s) on ICMP
Image 1-9
3. Insert the HDD into the HDD slot. Ensure that the handle is sufficiently open so that the hook (reference 1) of
the handle can pass the front plate of the ICMP.
Image 1-10
4. Push the HDD completely and firmly inside its slot, close the handle, and move the latch towards the right.
Image 1-11
5. Switch on the projector.
In case you replace one HDD (e.g. degraded mode) the ICMP automatically starts with the RAID
recovery process. The red LED of the HDD which has to be rebuilt is blinking. This process takes
about 200 GB per hour. Once the RAID is completed the red LED turns off.
CAUTION: It's strongly recommended to complete the RAID recovery process prior to starting a
show. This to ensure that the content integrity is preserved and that the show is not interrupted.
