Replacing a Deployed Appliance

This chapter provides a checklist for replacing a deployed physical appliance with a new one.

In This Chapter

 What to Consider See page 28.

 System Replacement Procedure See page 28.

PN 200972-001 Rev B 27

Silver Peak Hardware Reference Guide What to Consider

What to Consider

The following bullets summarize information about using the Appliance Manager or Orchestrator when
replacing an appliance in an already deployed network:

• If you’ve made a backup of the appliance configuration, you’ll be able to restore it to the new

appliance. If not, you must manually configure the new appliance.

To manually configure the appliance, refer to the following user documents:

• Silver Peak Appliance Manager Operator’s Guide [200030-001]

• Silver Peak Unity Orchestrator User’s Guide [200095-001]

• If you’re replacing a 4-port appliance and want to restore the backup configuration, then make

sure that the new appliance is also a 4-port appliance.

System Replacement Procedure

1 Before removing the installed appliance, look at its configuration and write down the mgmt0 IP

addresses / netmask

2 If you haven’t backed up the configuration, do it now, using either the Appliance Manager or the

Orchestrator.

• When Access Manager creates a backup, the destination is the appliance itself. From there, you

can download it to your computer. So, make sure you have a copy outside of the appliance.

• The Orchestrator backs up appliances to the Orchestrator database.

3 Power down, disconnect, and remove the old appliance.

4 Physically install the new [replacement] appliance.

If you need to review rack mount instructions, refer to Silver Peak’s User Documentation web page.

5 Using the appropriate instructions, cable the appliance and configure the new appliance, as directed.

• For NX appliances, refer to the NX Series Quick Start Guide [PN 200257-001].

• For EdgeConnect appliances, refer to the Unity EdgeConnect Quick Start Guide

[PN 200907-001].

6 Make sure that the software revision in the new appliance is the same as in the replaced appliance:

• If the previous appliance was at a higher software revision, upgrade the new appliance to that

revision.

• If the previous appliance was at a lower software revision, call Customer Support for assistance.

and mgmt0 next-hop IP address.

7 Restore the backup configuration to the new appliance.

Maintenance Port Precautions

The serial console is only used for periodic maintenance and not to be used under normal operation.

General Safety

CAUTION Please note the following:

1 The server will not be used in a home, school or other public area where the general population

would have access to it.

2 The manufacturer specifies that the thumbscrew normally should be tightened with a screwdriver.

Use of a thumbscrew is not considered to compromise the basic principles of safety associated with
the standard.

WARNING To prevent potential for personal injury, property damage or death, please

observe the following instructions:

• Do not use damaged equipment, including exposed, frayed or damaged power cords. Use only

the approved power cable that is rated for the equipment. The voltage and current rating of the
cable should be greater than the ratings marked on the equipment.

• Plug the power cables into properly grounded electrical outlets

• Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from a cable.

If you must use an extension cable, use a 3-wire cable with properly grounded plugs.

• Observe extension cable and power strip ratings to ensure that the total ampere rating of all

equipment plugged into the extension cable or power strip does not exceed 80 percent of the
ampere ratings limit for the extension cable or power strip.

• When connecting or disconnecting power to hot-swappable power supplies, observe the

following precautions:

• Install the power supply before connecting the power cable to it.

• Unplug the power cable before removing a power supply.

40 PN 200972-001 Rev B

Warning Statements Chapter 5 Specifications, Compliance, and Regulatory Statements

• To disconnect power from the server, disconnect all power cables from all power supplies.

(If you only disconnect one hot-swappable power supply, the system will automatically
switch to a redundant one.)

• The power supplies in the server may produce high voltages and potential energy hazards. By

opening the cover of the server you may be exposed to a risk of electric shock. The components
inside the server housing should only be serviced by a trained service technician.

• Inside the housing, the power supply may have more than one power supply cable. To reduce

the risk of electric shock, a trained service technician may need to disconnect all power supply
cables before servicing the system.

• The server should not be operated with the cover removed.

• Components inside the server housing may become extremely hot during normal operations.

These components include the memory and CPU modules. Allow sufficient time for
components to cool before handling.

• The server should not be operated in environments that can get wet. Protect the server at all

times from liquid intrusion.

• If your server gets wet, turn off the AC power at the circuit breaker before attempting to remove

the power cables from the electrical outlet. Then disconnect power to the equipment and to any
attached devices.

• Avoid obstructing the air vents on the server or pushing objects into the openings. This could

lead to fire or electric shock.

CAUTION To prevent hardware damage or loss of data, observe the following precautions:

• Follow installation instructions carefully.

• Do not attempt to service the equipment yourself. The server should be serviced by a trained

service technician.

• You should operate this equipment from the type of external power source indicated on the

electrical ratings label.

• Wait 30 seconds after turning off the equipment before removing a component from the system

or disconnecting a peripheral device from the server.

• Always leave at least 4 inches (10.2cm) of physical clearance on all vented sides of the server.

This permits the airflow required for proper ventilation.

• Avoid placing equipment too close together such that it is subject to re-circulated (pre-heated)

air. Avoid placing equipment too close to an server or exhaust vent.

• Ensure that cables are connected to the server without stress and that nothing rests on the cables.

• If the equipment is located in a rack, move it with caution. Ensure that all casters and/or

stabilizers are firmly connected. While moving the equipment, avoid uneven surfaces and
sudden stops.

• Do not place other equipment, monitors, or other devices on top of the server.

• To protect the server from fluctuations in electrical power, use a surge suppressor, line

conditioner or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

Silver Peak Hardware Reference Guide Warning Statements

WARNING BATTERY WARNING: Installing an incompatible battery on the server board may

increase the risk of fire or explosion. Observe the following precautions:

• The battery should only be replaced with a battery that is the same or equivalent as the factory

installed battery.

• Do not attempt to open or service the battery. Do not dispose of the battery in a fire or with

household waste. Contact the local waste disposal agency for the location of the nearest battery
deposit site.

CAUTION Please observe the following additional precautions for rack-mounted systems:

• Slide/rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space.

• Elevated Operating Ambient – If the server is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,

the operating ambient temperature in the rack environment may be greater than the room
ambient temperature. Therefore, consideration should be given to the maximum operating
temperature specified in the environmental specifications.

• Reduced Air Flow – Installation of the server in a rack should be such that the amount of air

flow required for safe operation is not compromised.

• Mechanical Loading – Mounting of the server in the rack should not create a hazardous

condition from uneven mechanical loading.

• Circuit Overloading – Connection of the equipment to the supply circuit should not create an

overloaded situation. Pay close attention to equipment nameplate ratings.

• Reliable Grounding – Appliances mounted in racks should be grounded properly. If using

power strips to connect the server to the supply circuit, make certain that the power strips are
also grounded properly.

• It is your responsibility to ensure that the rack and the provided rail system are compatible with

each other before installing the server.

• Install the front and side stabilizers prior to installing equipment in a rack. Failure to install

stabilizers may cause a rack to tip over.

• Load racks from the bottom up, loading the heaviest items near the bottom of the rack.

• Do not stand or step on components in the rack.

• Do not use slide-rail-mounted equipment as a shelf or workspace. Do not add weight to the top

of the server.

WARNING Grounding Instructions for Qualified Electricians Only:

• Grounding techniques may vary. However, a positive connection to a safety (earth) ground is

required.

• Make the ground connection first and disconnect it last to prevent hazards.

• Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably

installed ground conductor.

42 PN 200972-001 Rev B

Warning Statements Chapter 5 Specifications, Compliance, and Regulatory Statements

• If the system is installed in a rack, ensure that the system chassis is securely grounded to the

rack cabinet frame. Do not connect power to the system until grounding cables are connected.
