Maintaining disk drives

Replacing both boot disks

To replace both boot disk drives:

1.If the system is operating, enter:

/usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i0 -g0

The system shuts down and displays the ok prompt.

2.Press and release the front panel power button to turn off the system. Wait for the front panel Power/OK LED to turn off.

3.Turn the key switch to the Forced Off position. See the following figure.

!DANGER:

Be sure to turn the key switch to the Forced Off position before handling any internal components. Otherwise, it is possible for a user to restart the system remotely while you are working inside it. The Forced Off position is the only key switch position that prevents an RSC user from restarting the system.

4.Turn off the system monitor.

5.If any external SCSI devices are installed, turn off the SCSI devices starting with the device that is closest to the system and work towards the farthest device.

6.Unlock and open the front door.

7.Attach one end of an ESD antistatic wrist strap to the system chassis sheet metal and attach the other end to your wrist. See Using an ESD wrist strap on page 59 for more information.
