CHAPTER

Hardware Installation and Removal

This chapter describes the tasks required to install and remove the HBA. Refer to your system installation or service manual for detailed instructions.

This chapter contains the following topics:

■ “Observing ESD and Handling Precautions” on page 7

■ “Installing the Hardware” on page 8

■ “To Verify the Installation (Solaris OS)” on page 13

■ “Removing the Hardware” on page 15

Observing ESD and Handling Precautions

Caution – Damage to the HBA can occur as the result of careless handling or

electrostatic discharge (ESD). Always handle the HBA with care to avoid damage to electrostatic sensitive components.

To minimize the possibility of ESD-related damage, use both a workstation antistatic mat and an ESD wrist strap. You can get an ESD wrist strap from any reputable electronics store, or from Oracle as part number #250-1007. Observe the following precautions to avoid ESD-related problems:

■ Leave the HBA in its antistatic bag until you are ready to install it in the system.

■ Always use a properly fitted and grounded wrist strap or other suitable ESD

protection when handling the HBA and observe proper ESD grounding techniques.

■ Hold the HBA by the edge of the PCB, not the connectors.

■ Place the HBA on a properly grounded antistatic work surface pad when it is out

of its protective antistatic bag.

Installing the Hardware

The hardware installation process involves the following general steps:

■ “To Verify the PPS Shelf Manager Firmware Version” on page 8

■ “To Install the HBA” on page 8

■ “To Connect the Optical Cable” on page 10

The following sections describe these steps in more detail.

▼ To Verify the PPS Shelf Manager Firmware

Version

If you are using Oracle’s Sun Netra CT900 ATCA Blade Server or are using any Pigeon Point Systems (PPS) Shelf Manager, you must verify the PPS Shelf Manager firmware version prior to installing the HBA. The latest available version of the PPS Shelf Manager firmware is required to support the HBA.

1. Access the Pigeon Point Shelf Manager User’s Guide at:

http://www.pigeonpoint.com/library.html

2. Follow the instructions in the Pigeon Point Shelf Manager User’s Guide about how

to verify the PPS Shelf Manager firmware that is currently installed.

3. Verify and, if necessary, install the latest available version of the PPS Shelf

Manager firmware, as described in “Potential AMC I/O Card Corruption” on

page 21.

▼ To Install the HBA

1. Attach an antistatic strap.

Refer to “Observing ESD and Handling Precautions” on page 7.

2. Remove the AMC slot filler panel from the front panel of the Netra board (

FIGURE 2-1).

FIGURE 2-1 Removing the AMC Slot Filler Panel

Note – A module handle is at the bottom of the HBA. When you install the HBA,

the position of the module handle (pulled out or pushed in) does not matter.

Insert the HBA through the cutout and into the AMC slot (FIGURE 2-2).
