Removing an InfiniBand Switch Module
Removing an InfiniBand Switch Module
To remove an InfiniBand switch module from the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch chassis, perform the
following steps:
Step1 Make sure the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch chassis is securely seated in the rack.
Step2 If you are removing the InfiniBand module from slot 16 (the lower module), you must power down the
chassis before removing the module.
Note The InfiniBand module in slot 16 is not hot-swappable. The InfiniBand module in slot 15 is
hot-swappable if a functional module is installed in slot 16.
Step3 Properly ground yourself to avoid potential electrostatic discharge and damage to the module.
Step4 Facing the cable end of the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch chassis, unfasten both screws on the
InfiniBand switch module.
Loosen the screws until you are sure the module is no longer attached to the chassis. Do not attempt to
remove the screws from the module.
Step5 Open both ejector levers simultaneously, and pull the switch module toward you.
Step6 Either replace the module immediately or install a blanking panel over the empty chassis bay to e nsure
appropriate cooling.
Note The blanking panel is a flat sheet of metal with the sam e dimensions as the InfiniBand switch
module faceplate.
