Remove the UPS network card

Procedure

  1. Locate the UPS with the UPS network card to be replaced.
    1. There is no FRU identify LED indicator for the UPS.

    4. 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 2.

    5. Use the storage facility serial number label on the front of the management enclosure to confirm.
