Relocating a TRSA
This section describes how to relocate a Token-Ring SeverNet adapter (TRSA) that has
been previously installed in a Compaq NonStop™ Himalaya S-series system enclosure.
Removal and relocation of the TRSA is described in the following subsections:
Note. A TRSA can be relocated without shutting down the system.
Caution. If a previously installed TRSA and backplane connector have damaged pins, remove
the TRSA 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 TRSA to a different, undamaged slot. Both the TRSA and
backplane (or enclosure) must be replaced. For backplane replacement, refer to the backplane
replacement section of the Himalaya S-Series Service Provider Supplement available in
G-series Total Information Manager (TIM) collections.
