Removing the top cover: 2145-DH8

You might be required to remove the SAN Volume Controller 2145-DH8 top cover.

Before you begin

Important: Before you slide the cover forward, make sure that all the tabs on both the front, rear, and side of the cover engage the chassis correctly. If all the tabs do not engage the chassis correctly, it will be difficult to remove the cover later.

Procedure

  1. Remove the node from the rack.
  2. To make sure that you can replace cables in the same ports from which they were removed, label the port position of the Fibre Channel, SAS, and Ethernet cables.
  3. Remove all cables.
  4. Lift the cover release latch ( 2 ).
  5. Slide the cover toward the rear of the node and remove, as shown in Figure 1.
