4 Relocating an FESA
This section describes how to relocate a Fast Ethernet ServerNet adapter (FESA) that
has been previously installed in an HP NonStop S-series system enclosure. The FESA
can be relocated without shuttind down the system.
This section includes the following topics:
Note. As of G06.22 and later RVUs, the HP NonStop Open System Management (OSM)
Interface replaces TSM as the system management tool of choice for NonStop systems. For
instructions on using OSM or migrating to OSM, refer to the OSM documentation for your RVU.
Caution. If a previously installed FESA and backplane connector have damaged pins, remove
the FESA and install a filler panel in the vacant slot. Attach red tags to the filler panel to identify
the slot. Do not move the damaged FESA to a different, undamaged slot. Both the FESA and
backplane (or enclosure) must be replaced. For backplane replacement, refer to the backplane
replacement section of the HP NonStop S-Series Service Provider Supplement available in the
G-series NonStop Technical Library (NTL) collection.
