FRU Removal and Replacement
Replacing a Redundant CTP2 Card
To replace a redundant CTP2 card:
1. Wait approximately 20 seconds after removal of the failed CTP2 card to begin this
replacement procedure.
2. Remove the replacement card from its protective antistatic bag.
3. Hold the card by its stiffener and insert it in the chassis card track, as shown in
Figure 4–3. The label identifying the card should be at the top. Verify the card is
aligned in the card tracks, then slide it forward until it makes contact with the
backplane.
4. Secure the CTP2 card:
a. Insert the torque tool into the cam Allen screw at the top of the card. Turn the
torque tool clockwise until you feel it release and hear a clicking sound. As
the screw turns clockwise, the card cams into the backplane connector.
b. Insert the torque tool into the locking Allen screw at the bottom of the card.
Turn the torque tool clockwise until you feel it release and hear a clicking
sound. As the screw turns clockwise, the card locks into place.
c. Verify the card stiffener is flush with the front of the card cage and even with
other director logic cards.
5. After the replacement CTP2 card is installed, note the following:
— When a CTP2 card with a different firmware version is installed in a director
with an active CTP2 card, a synchronization process occurs. This process
causes firmware from the active CTP2 card to be downloaded to the
replacement CTP2 card. The process does not occur if both CTP2 cards have
the same firmware version.
— The synchronization process may take up to ten minutes (depending on
director activity).
CAUTION: Allow the synchronization process to complete. If the process is
interrupted by a director power cycle or initial program load (IPL), or by removing the
replacement CTP2 card, the card may be unusable due to partially-loaded firmware.
— If after ten minutes the replacement CTP2 card is not operational, perform the
data collection procedure and return the failed replacement card to HP
(Collecting Maintenance Data on page 3–37).
