1.6 Removing and Installing AMCs
This section describes how to remove and install AMCs.
The AMC.1-HDD SAS disk can be installed into an ATCA shelf (chassis) with sites
that support AMC.1 PCI Express signaling. The site height must properly match the
panel height fitted to the AMC.
At the time of publication of this document, the AMC.1-HDD SAS disk is qualified
and supported on the following Sun blade servers:
Sun Netra CP3060 blade server
Sun Netra CP3220 blade server
Sun Netra CP3250 blade server
1.6.1 Removing an AMC
If you want to remove only an AMC from a blade server, use the following
instructions.
If you want to remove the blade server with the AMC installed, see the next section
Section 1.6.2, “Removing a Blade Server and AMC” on page 1-12.
Caution Before removing an AMC, read all cautions, warnings, and instructions
presented earlier in this chapter.
1. Shut down the payload OS.
Removing a board before powering down the operating system might cause an
OS panic, which could corrupt data or file systems.
2. At the front of the blade server, locate the AMC you want to remove.
Depending on the blade server’s AMC site location, you might have to remove
the blade server from the chassis. Some blade servers have compartments for
AMCs that can only be accessed when the blade server is removed from the
chassis.
3. If the blade server must be removed to access the AMC, go to Section 1.6.2,
“Removing a Blade Server and AMC” on page 1-12.
