Identifying hot pluggable and non-hot pluggable components
IMPORTANT: Hot add and hot removal of the disk enclosures are not supported by HP P4800
G2 SAS BladeSystem SAN Solution.
The following HP P4800 G2 solution components are hot-pluggable; therefore, you do not need
to power down the device before replacing a part:
• Drives
• External fans
• Power supplies
• Blade disk drives
All other HP P4800 G2 solution components are not hot-pluggable. You must first power down
the device before replacing a part.
CAUTION: To prevent losing access to data during any maintenance operation on components
of the SAS fabric, including the SAS switches, SAS cables, and I/O modules on the disk enclosure,
first power down the server blades using the procedures to shut down the management group in
the CMC Online Help or HP P4000 SAN Solution User Guide.
