Maintenance and inspections (repairing, and regular diagnosis and maintenance) ■ Caution – The following tasks regarding this product and the optional products provided from Fujitsu should only be performed by a certified service engineer. Users must not perform these tasks. Incorrect operation of these tasks may cause malfunction.
Page 27
Emission of Laser Beam (Invisible) Caution – The main unit and high-speed optical interconnect cabinet contain modules that generate invisible laser radiation. Laser beams are generated while the equipment is operating, even if an optical cable is disconnected or a cover is removed.
Limitations and Cautions Power Control and Operator Panel Mode Switch When you use the remote power control utilizing the RCI function or the automatic power control system (referred to below as APCS), you can disable this remote power control or the APCS by switching to Service mode on the operator panel. Disabling these features ensures that you do not unintentionally switch the system power on or off during maintenance.

Operator Panel The operator panel controls the high-end server power. The operator panel is usually locked with a key to prevent the server from being mistakenly powered off through an operator error during system operation. Before starting maintenance work, ask the system administrator to unlock the operation panel.
2.3.2 Appearance and Operations The operator panel can be used while the front door of the server is closed. Field engineers, and the system administrator use the operation panel to check the operating state of the server and to perform system power operations. To check the operating state of the server, look at the LEDs.
Operator Panel FIGURE 2-13 2.3.3 lists the states of the server that are displayed with the LEDs on the TABLE 2-1 operator panel. The blinking period is one second (frequency of 1 Hz). Besides the states listed in of the server using combinations of the three LEDs.

2.5.1 Checking the Hardware Configuration and FRU Status To replace a faulty component and perform the maintenance on the server it is important to check and understand the hardware configuration of the server and the state of each hardware component.
Configurations The software and firmware configurations and versions affect the operation of the server. To change the configuration or investigate a problem, check the latest information and check for any problems in the software. Software and firmware varies according to users.
The software configuration and version can be checked in the Solaris Operating ■ System. Refer to the Solaris OS documentation for more information. The firmware configuration and versions can be checked from the maintenance ■ terminal using XSCF Shell commands. Refer to the SPARC Enterprise M3000/M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 Servers XSCF User’s Guide for more detailed information.

Section 3.3, “Cleaning an Air Filter (I/O Unit)” on page 3-5 ■ The high-end server is equipped with air filters at the bottom of the cabinet. These air filters filter out dust particles from the air that the fans suck in from the floor into the cabinet.
Enterprise M8000/M9000 servers. Cleaning an Air Filter (Server) An air filter may be cleaned while power to the server is on. Although the air filters must be cleaned once a year, be sure to clean them if they become visibly dirty, even if they are not scheduled for cleaning.
Page 97
Note – One concern about cleaning the air filters while power to the server is on is that dislodged dust may be sucked inside the system when the air filters are pulled out. Therefore, gently and slowly pull them out. Complete the cleaning as quickly as possible.
Page 98
Phillips screwdriver. Finally, close the front and rear doors of the SPARC Enterprise server. Removal of Air Filters This filter cleaning procedure applies to both high-end servers.
Caution – If you must use a vacuum cleaner for this work, use it outside the computer room. Do not use it inside the computer room. Using a vacuum cleaner inside the computer room may result in a server failure. The cleaning procedure is as follows.

LED display of the component. Depending on the target component, the server must be powered off or a domain must be stopped. For the LED display of each component, see page 2-30.
■ Cold replacement ■ After all the domains are stopped and then the server is powered off, a FRU is operated. Note – Do not operate a target FRU while the OpenBoot PROM is running (the ok prompt is displayed). After stopping the relevant domain (power-off) or starting the Solaris OS, operate the target FRU.
Active Replacement In active replacement the Solaris OS must be configured to allow the component to be replaced. Active replacement has four stages: Section 4.2.1, “Disconnecting a FRU from a Domain” on page 4-3 ■ Section 4.2.2, “Disconnecting and Replacing a FRU” on page 4-5 ■...
4.2.1.2 Disconnecting a PCI card Caution – Before you remove the PCI cassette, make sure that there is no activity on the card in the cassette. Caution – In the PCI cassette part, when removing cables such as LAN cable, if your finger can't reach the latch lock of the connector, press the latch with a flathead screwdriver to remove the cable.

In cold replacement all business operations are stopped. Cold replacement is the act of powering off the server and disconnecting input power. This is normally required for safety when the inside of the server is accessed. The work of cold replacement consists of the following three steps: Section 4.4.1, “Powering the Server Off”...
The following activities occur when the poweroff command is used: The Solaris OS shuts down cleanly. ■ The server powers off to Standby mode (the XSCF Unit and one fan will still have ■ power). For details of the command, see the SPARC Enterprise M3000/M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 Servers XSCF User’s Guide.
From the Maintenance Terminal Follow the power-on procedure below using the XSCF maintenance functions. 1. Make sure that the server has enough power supply units to run the desired configuration. 2. Switch on all main line switches of the AC section.
