Installing and Removing a Module Hardware Preparation and Installation

Before you remove your module, please read all cautions, warnings and instructions presented in this section and the guidelines explained in Before You Install or Remove a Board on page 47.

Hot swap compliant modules may be removed while the system is powered on. If a module is not hot swap compliant, you should remove power to the slot or system before removing the module. See Understanding Hot Swap on page 48 for more information.

Data Loss

Powering down or removing a board before the operating system or other software running on the board has been properly shut down may cause corruption of data or file systems.

Make sure all software is completely shut down before removing power from the board or removing the board from the chassis.

Removal Procedure

To remove a board module, follow these steps:

1.Loosen the module’s captive screws at both ends of the front panel.

2.Begin to remove your module by unlatching the ejector lever (the lower lever on vertically mounted boards). See Recognize Different Injector/Ejector Lever Types on page 49. Do not remove the module immediately.

3.Once the applications and operating system running on the board have stopped and it is safe to remove the board, open both ejector levers to partially unseat the module from the backplane connectors.
