Replacing a Controller (NonStop Himalaya
K-Series Servers)
This subsection describes how to replace either the multifunction controller (MFC) or
3216 tape controller in a NonStop Himalaya K-series server. The following instructions
apply to NonStop Himalaya K10000 and K20000 servers with MF-8 I/O cabinets, and
to NonStop Himalaya K2, K100, K200, K1000, K1000SE, K2000, and K2000SE
servers.
Replacing an MFC
Complete procedures for replacing MFC logic boards and BICs are contained in the
support guide for your system. See the following manuals:
•
Himalaya K10000/K20000 Support Guide
•
Himalaya K100 and K1000/K2000 Support Guide
Replacing a 3216 Tape Controller
The 3216 tape controller supports one or two tape drives. To troubleshoot controller
problems using the LEDs on the 3216 controller logic board and BIC, see
Troubleshooting the Modular Tape Subsystem (NonStop Himalaya K-Series Servers)
on page 3-48. Before replacing either the logic board or the BIC, you must shut down
the processes that use the tape drives and the paths to the controller.
The following instructions apply to NonStop Himalaya K10000 and K20000 servers
with MF-8 I/O cabinets, and to NonStop Himalaya K2, K100, K200, K1000, and K2000
servers. Only a trained service provider can replace a logic board or BIC in servers
with MC-32 I/O cabinets.
In the procedures that follow, the examples use the following device names:
$TAPE1 The logical device name of the first cartridge tape drive configured on the
3216 controller.
$TAPE2 The logical device name of the second cartridge tape drive configured on
the 3216 controller.
