Replacing a Fibre-Channel Module

NOTE: S5000 does not support the hot swapping of a Fibre-Channel pluggable module during switch operations.

Instead, you must power down the switch before removing and replacing an expansion module.

Disconnect any network interface cables attached to the module.

Use the grab handle to slide the Fibre-Channel module out of the switch module slot.

Use the grab handle on the replacement Fibre-Channel module to slide it into the switch module slot.

Connect any network interface cables to the attached module.

•

The PSU slides into the slot smoothly. Do not force a PSU into a slot as this action may damage the PSU or the

S5000 chassis.

•

The S5000 supports AC and DC power supplies with two air-flow directions (I/O to Utility and Utility to I/O). The

S5000 does not support mixing PSU types, that is, you cannot replace an AC PSU with a DC PSU and an AC-R

PSU with a DC-R PSU. The fan airflow direction for both the PSUs must be the same.

•

For AC PSUs, an illuminated translucent handle indicates the power status.

To view the log messages, use the show logging command. For more information, refer to the System Logs

FTOS Command Line Reference Guide for the S5000 Switch and FTOS Configuration Guide for the

chapters of the

S5000 Switch .

WARNING: Although the switch can run on one PSU, Dell Networking highly recommends using two PSUs for full

redundancy and proper cooling. If the switch needs to run with only one PSU for a time, be sure to cover the

second PSU slot opening with a blank plate to avoid overheating.

WARNING: The Utility panel consists of four slots numbered from 0 to 3. Insert PSUs in slots 0 and 3.
