 DISPATCH INSTRUCTIONS
 
 WHAT SKILLS DOES THE ENGINEER NEED:
 Oracle Server X5-2 Training.


Oracle Server X6-2 Training.
 
 TIME ESTIMATE: 30 minutes
 
 TASK COMPLEXITY: 0-FRU 
 
 FIELD ENGINEER INSTRUCTIONS
 
 WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE RESOLUTION ACTIVITY? :
 
 If the system is still up and functioning, customer should perform an orderly and graceful shutdown of applications and OS.  Then power off the server and remove the AC power cords from the system.
 
 A data backup is not a prerequisite but is a wise precaution.


Note:  If this is an Exalogic server running OVS with virtual servers, please verify customer has readied the server by moving VM's off of the server and placed the server in maintenance mode.  See Document:  Making an OVS Node Unavailable for vServer Placement in Exalogic Virtual Environments using EMOC (Doc ID 1551724.1)


WHAT ACTION DOES THE ENGINEER NEED TO TAKE:


Servicing the Front Indicator Module:
 http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E41059_01/html/E48312/napsm.z40001d31014236.html#scrolltoc
 
 1. Prepare the server for service.


    

  1. Power off the server and disconnect the power cords from the power supplies.
    2. 

  2. Extend the server to the maintenance position in the rack.
    3. 

  3. Attach an anti-static wrist strap.
    4. 



2. Remove the top cover from the storage drive cage.


    

  1. Remove six Phillips screws from the top of the drive cage — three on each side.
    2. 

  2. Open the server's fan door by sliding the fan door latches forward and swinging the door up.
    3. 

  3. Slide the storage drive cover forward (toward the front of the server) and lift it up.
    4. 



3. Remove the Front Indicator Module (FIM).


    

  1. Loosen the screw that secures the FIM assembly to the server chassis.
    2. 

  2. Carefully slide the FIM assembly toward the rear enough to lift it over the Phillips screw and lift the FIM assembly out of the server
    3. 

  3. Disconnect the FIM cable from the FIM assembly and set the assembly aside.
    4. 



4. Install the Replacement Front Indicator Module.


    

  1. Unpack the replacement FIM and place it on an antistatic mat.
    2. 

  2. Connect the FIM cable to the replacement FIM assembly.
    3. 

  3. Carefully lower the FIM assembly into the chassis, position it over the Phillips screw in the server's chassis, and slide it forward so that all the LEDs, USB connectors and Power On button fit into place on the server's front panel.
    4. 

  4. Tighten the Phillips screw to secure the FIM assembly to the server chassis.
    5. 



5. Re-install the top cover to the storage drive cage.


    

  1. Place the drive cage cover over the server drive cage and slide it back to align the screw holes with the proper holes in the top of the chassis frame.
    2. 

  2. Install the six Phillips screws (three on each side) to secure the cover to the server.
    3. 

  3. Close the fan door.
    4. 



6. Return the Server to operation.


    

  1. Remove any anti-static measures that were used.
    2. 

  2. Return the server to it's normal operating position within the rack.
    3. 

  3. Re-install the AC power cords and any data cables that were removed.
    4. 

  4. Power on server. Verify that the Power/OK indicator led lights steady on.
    5. 



OBTAIN CUSTOMER ACCEPTANCE
 
 WHAT ACTION DOES THE CUSTOMER NEED TO TAKE TO RETURN THE SYSTEM TO AN OPERATIONAL STATE:
 
 Boot up system and verify full functionality.


Take compute node out of maintenance mode if OVS procedure was used.
