*1: For a single-chassis configuration, the inactive/cold maintenance procedure is the same as that for stopping the system, therefore see
the procedure for system-stopped maintenance.
*2: It is necessary to use dynamic reconfiguration (DR) to disconnect a chassis requiring maintenance from the physical partition.

7.2.2 Maintenance flow
Table 7-2 lists the sequence of the maintenance procedure for the CPU memory units.
To expand/reduce the CPU memory unit upper, it is necessary to remove/install the
CPU memory unit lower.
The procedure for expanding a CPU memory unit upper is the same as that for
installing a CPU memory unit upper. The procedure for reducing a CPU memory
unit upper is the same as that for removing a CPU memory unit upper.
In addition, the CPU memory unit upper and CPU memory unit lower are connected
by the PCI Express (PCIe) cable. The PCIe cable should be replaced when the CPU
memory unit upper is replaced. Similarly, the cable is installed when the CPU
memory unit upper is expanded, and removed when it is reduced.
