Exchange the UPS
Before you begin
CAUTION:
This assembly contains mechanical moving parts. Use care when
you service this assembly. (C025)
Use approved ESD procedures to prevent damage.
Attention:
- This procedure is not a stand-alone procedure. Customer disruption and damage to the hardware might occur when microcode and power boundaries are not in the proper conditions for this service action.
- If a serviceable event FRU repair directed you to this procedure, the microcode and power boundaries are already set.
- If a serviceable event FRU repair did not direct you to this procedure, see MAP1230 Replace a FRU without using a serviceable event.
Notes:
- All the cables and FRUs to be removed must be uniquely identified so they can be reinstalled correctly.
- If an installed earthquake resistance kit prevents you from accessing this FRU, refer to MAP1600.
Remove the UPS
Procedure
-
The UPS FRU should have arrived with a new battery FRU, in a separate box. Check the date
labels on the FRU packaging or on the front of the new battery FRU.
- Record the "Install / Recharge by: " date for reference at a later screen.
-
Record the "Battery Mfg. Date" for reference at a later screen.
Note: Both dates appear in the format YYYY-MM-DD. Later in this repair you will be asked to enter the "Battery Mfg. Date" in the format YYYYMM.
-
Has the "Install / Recharge by: " date passed?
Yes. The date has passed. Stop the repair. You cannot continue with an expired battery FRU.
- Click Close to close the parts exchange procedure.
- When asked, "Has the part been replaced?", click OK.
- When directed to check "Install / Recharge by: " date, click Exit to exit the service action.
No. The date has not passed. Continue the repair.
-
Locate the UPS to be replaced.
- There is no FRU identify LED indicator for the UPS.
- The UPS is part of the storage controller module, the group of enclosures shown in Figure 1.
-
You must use the FRU location code information to locate the FRU.
The location code is in the format Unnnn.mmm.ssssss-E6y. Example:
nnnn = machine type
mmm = model
sssssss = storage facility serial number (Not the serial number of the customer-provided rack.)
y = 1 (upper), 2 (lower)
See Figure 1. - Use the storage facility serial number label on the front of the management enclosure to confirm.
