PROBLEM OVERVIEW:

Power Supply Replacement on Fibre Channel Switch

WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE RESOLUTION ACTIVITY?:

Power Supply Replacement can be done while Fibre Channel Switch is down or running on other power supply.

WHAT ACTION DOES THE FIELD ENGINEER/ADMINISTRATOR NEED TO TAKE?:

To remove a redundant power supply:

1. If the product is not rack-mounted, go to step 2. If the product is rack-mounted, perform one of the following:

— If the product is installed in an FC-512 Fabricenter equipment cabinet, insert the 5/16-inch door tool into the socket hole at the right top of the door (front or rear). Turn the tool counter- clockwise to unlock and open the door.

— If the product is installed in a customer-supplied equipment cabinet, unlock and open the cabinet door (front or rear) as directed by the
customer representative.

2. Identify the defective power supply from:

— The illuminated amber LED on the FRU.

— At a web browser communicating with the EFCM Basic Edition interface or at the management server (Element Manager application), FRU failure information displayed at the Hardware View, FRU List View, or Event Log.

3. Disconnect the power cord from the power supply.

4. Disengage and remove the power supply:

a. Disengage the locking mechanism by rotating both finger handles outward 90 degrees.

b. Use the finger handles to pull the power supply out of the switch chassis. Support the power supply as it is pulled from the chassis.

5. Inspect the Event Log:

— At a web browser communicating with the EFCM Basic Edition interface, select Event from the Logs menu.

— At the management server (Element Manager application), select Event Log from the Logs menu.

The following event codes appear:

• 200 - Power supply AC voltage failure (recorded when power is disconnected).
• 206 - Power supply removed.
• 300 - Cooling fan propeller failed.

Replacement To replace a redundant power supply:

1. Remove the replacement power supply from its packaging.

2. Inspect the rear of the power supply for bent or broken connector pins damaged during shipping. If any pins are damaged, obtain a new power supply.

3. Position the power supply in the rear of the switch. Ensure the finger handles are disengaged and rotated 90 degrees outward.

a. While supporting the power supply with one hand, insert it into the switch chassis.

b. Firmly push the power supply into the chassis. Rotate the finger handles 90 degrees inward to seat the power supply and engage the connector pins. Ensure the faceplate is flush with the chassis cutout.

4. Connect the AC power cord to the power supply and a facility power source.

5. Wait several seconds, then inspect the power supply to ensure the amber LED extinguishes. If the LED illuminates, engage Oracle support for support.

6. Inspect the Event Log:

— At a web browser communicating with the EFCM Basic Edition interface, select Event from the Logs menu.

— At the management server (Element Manager application), select Event Log from the Logs menu.

Ensure the following event codes appear:

• 203 - Power supply AC voltage recovery.
• 207 - Power supply installed.
• 315 - Cooling fan propeller recovered.

If the event codes do not appear, engage Oracle support for support.

7. Verify power supply operation. At a web browser communicating with the EFCM Basic Edition interface or at the management server (Element
Manager application), open the Hardware View and observe the FRU graphic to ensure alert symbols do not appear (yellow triangle or red diamond).

If a problem is indicated, engage Oracle support for support.

8. Perform the data collection procedure. Refer customer to McData - What logs are required to troubleshoot a McData switch? (Doc ID 1015572.1)

9. Clear the system error LED on the product front bezel:

— At a web browser communicating with the EFCM Basic Edition interface, select Clear System Error Light from the Maintenance menu.

— At the management server (Element Manager application), open the Hardware View. Right-click the front panel bezel graphic (away from a
FRU), then click the Clear System Error Light menu selection.

10. If necessary, close and lock the equipment cabinet door.
