  To Remove and Replace a SFP Transceiver

  1. If needed, to help locate the correct tray, activate the flashing Amber LEDs:

     a) Turn on the tray disk drive Amber LEDs.

     b) View the tray disk drive LED location illustration.

     Note: All of the disk drive Amber LEDs will flash.

  2. Remove the back cover if needed.

  3. From the rear, locate the failed SFP transceiver by checking the fault light. If a fault is detected, the Amber LED will be on.

     a) The slikscreen under each connector port identifies Host 1 (left) and Host 2 (right) on each tray controller when viewing the CSM/CEM from the rear.

     b) View the SFP transceivers.

  4. Verify that the SFP transceiver is ready to remove.

     a) The SFP transceiver status should be "failed".

     b) If the SFP transceiver is not "failed" call your Sun Service provider.

  5. Disconnect the fiber optic interface cables by squeezing the bottom part of the cable connector. Make sure that the cables are labeled before removing them. The cables are fragile, use care when handling them.

     a) View the fibre optic cable and SFP Transciever illustration.

  6. Remove the failed SFP transceiver from the controller by pushing down on the small lever at the top of the transceiver.

     a) View the SFP transceiver removal illustration.

  7. Unpack the new SFP transceiver and verify it is the same type of transceiver that you are replacing. Save all of the packing materials to return the failed SFP transceiver in. Use care when handling either the new or the failed SFP transceiver.

  8. Insert the SFP transceiver until it clicks into place and is completely seated.

  9. Insert the fiber optic interface cable until it clicks into place and is completely seated.

     a) The Green host connector link LED should turn "On".

     b) Verify that the Bypass and Fault LEDs are now off.

  10. Verify that the controller "Status" is now "Ok".

      a) The controller "Status" should now be "OK" and the "Availability" should be "Running/Full Power".

  11. A new FRU inventory will need to be created for the new controller: Generate new FRU inventory.

  12. Turn off the Amber LEDs used to locate the CSM/CEM.

      a) Turn Off tray LEDs.

  13. Disable the reserve CSM/CEM function.

      a) Select the Release button.
