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 9
“Installing the Hardware” on page 10
“Testing the Installation” on page 17
“Replacing the SFP+ Unit on the HBA” on page 24
“Removing the Hardware” on page 24

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 Sun 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.
9
Hold the HBA by the edge of the PCB, not by 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, as described in these sections:
“To Install the HBA” on page 10
“To Connect the Optical Cable” on page 14
“To Apply Power” on page 15
“To Verify Proper Installation (for the Solaris OS)” on page 17
“To Verify Attached Storage (for the Solaris OS)” on page 21

To Install the HBA

The HBA comes with a low-profile PCIe bracket installed. A standard bracket is included in the box with the HBA. The low-profile mounting bracket is shorter than the standard bracket; approximately 3.11 in. (7.9 cm) compared to 4.75 in. (12.06 cm). If you need to change the bracket for HBA installation, you must first remove the optical transceiver (two transceivers on the two-port adapter) from its housing. This procedure covers how to install the HBA and, if necessary, how to remove the transceiver and change the bracket safely.
The HBA uses different types of transceivers. This procedure shows an example of one type.
1. Attach an antistatic strap (refer to “Observing ESD and Handling Precautions”
on page 9).
2. Refer to your system installation or service manual to determine an appropriate PCI-Express slot in which to install the HBA.
3. Shut down, power off, and unplug the system.
4. Remove the system case.
5. Remove the blank panel from an empty PCI-Express slot.
6. (Optional) Perform the following steps to replace the PCI bracket.
10 Sun StorageTek 8 Gb FC PCI-Express HBA, Emulex Installation Guide • December 2008
a. Remove the transceiver from its cage assembly (see FIGURE 2-2) by pulling the
bail (handle) out and down to release the latch and gently pull the transceiver out of its housing.
Do not force it. After the latch is released, the transceiver slides out easily..
Caution – This is a delicate operation–take care not to damage the transceiver.
FIGURE 2-1 Optical Transceiver
FIGURE 2-2 A Partly Extracted Optical Transceiver and an Optical Transciever That is Latched In Place
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Removal 11
b. Observing ESD precautions, store the transceiver in an ESD-safe place.
c. Remove the mounting bracket screws from the top of the HBA.
FIGURE 2-3 Removing the Bracket Mounting Screws
d. Remove the bracket and store it for future use.
e. Align the new mounting bracket tabs with the holes in the HBA.
Caution – Be careful not to push the bracket past the transceiver housing's
grounding tabs.
Make sure the LEDs are properly aligned with the holes in the bracket.
f. Re-install the screws that attach the HBA to the bracket.
g. Re-install the transceiver by sliding it into the housing.
When the latch engages, it clicks.
h. Push the bail back into place.
7. Insert the HBA into the empty PCI-Express 8-lane slot and press firmly until the adapter is seated.
8. Secure the mounting bracket of the HBA to the case with the panel screw or clip.
12 Sun StorageTek 8 Gb FC PCI-Express HBA, Emulex Installation Guide • December 2008
9. Replace the computer case and tighten the case screws.
The HBA is now installed in the computer and is ready for media attachment.

To Connect the Optical Cable

Note – The HBA does not allow normal data transmission on an optical link unless
it is connected to another similar or compatible Fibre Channel product (that is, multimode to multimode).

Replacing the SFP+ Unit on the HBA

The Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP+) optics unit on this card is considered a part of the card, NOT as a separate field replaceable unit (FRU). Therefore, in the event that the SFP+ unit malfunctions, you must return the entire card in order to receive a replacement SFP+ unit. Always return any malfunctioning card with the SFP+ unit attached. For information about removing the card from a system in order to return it, see “To Remove the HBA Hardware” on page 24.

Removing the Hardware

The following procedures describe how to remove the HBA. Refer to your system installation or service manual for detailed HBA adapter removal instructions.
The hardware removal process involves these general steps:
1. Halting the operating system and removing power from the server blade, or computer.
2. Removing the HBA hardware.

To Remove the HBA Hardware

1. Use an ESD strap (refer to “Observing ESD and Handling Precautions” on
page 9).
2. Refer to your system documentation to shut down, power off, and unplug the system.
3. Disconnect all cables.
4. Unscrew the case screws and remove the system case.
5. Remove the mounting bracket of the HBA from the system by unscrewing the panel screw or removing the clip, whichever is being used.
You can now remove the HBA.
