Note. A CCSA can be replaced without shutting down the system.
Caution. If a previously installed CCSA and backplane connector have damaged pins, remove
the CCSA and install a filler panel (U09021) in the empty slot. Attach red tags to the filler panel
to identify the slot. Do not move the damaged CCSA to a different slot. Both the CCSA and
backplane (or enclosure) must be replaced. If the backplane must be replaced, contact your
service provider.
