Topics: • P100E3 node part replacement instructions on page 12 • Mounting kit replacement instructions on page 20 3.1 P100E3 node part replacement instructions The following sections provide information about P100E3 node part replacement. 3.1.1 Replacing 3.5 inch drives Table 3-5. 3.5 HDD replacement overview 3.1.1.1 Drive replacement guidelines When replacing drives, do not: • Install 14 TB drives into slots that held 12 TB drives. • Mix 14 TB drives and 12 TB drives in the same storage column. 3.1.1.2 Removing a 3.5 inch drive To remove a 3.5 inch drive: 1. If you are replacing a faulty drive, locate the drive and verify that is in the Decommissioned state. Important: The replacement drive must be the same model as the drive that you are replacing. Also, the disk must be completely empty, with no data and no partition table. Important: If you are removing drives as part of System or P100E3 node replacement, skip steps a through f. a. On the ActiveScale SM Dashboard, click the Resources tab. b. In the system image on the resources page, click the node with the faulty drive. The node will have an alert icon, and the node status page will appear. c. Scroll down the page to the components lists and click the tab for HDDs or SSDs depending on which type of drive has failed. d. Look through the list of drives and locate the faulty drive. The status column for the drive will read Degraded, Decommissioning, or Decommissioned. Note: For more information about drive states, refer to the ActiveScale OS Administrator Guide. Required tools Personnel required Replacement time None 1 15 to 25 minutes

13 • If the status is Degraded, the drive has displayed problematic behavior and will undergo automatic repair. If the problematic behavior continues, the drive will be decommissioned. Important: Do not remove a drive in the Degraded state. If the drive returns to the Online state, the automatic repairs were successful and no further action is required. • If the status is Decommissioning, the drive is either undergoing automatic repair, or is being prepared for safe removal from the system. When it is safe to remove the drive, the state will change to Decommissioned. Important: Do not remove drives in the Decommissioning state. If the drive never reaches the Decommissioned state, contact Quantum Corporation support. • If the status is Decommissioned, proceed with physical drive replacement. e. Click the Ident button to light the front identification LED on the drive. f. Identify the physical location of the drive. 2. Remove the drive tray. a. Locate the release lever under the drive tray handle at the front of the P100E3 node. Figure 3-3. Drive tray release lever b. Press upward on the release lever and use the handle to pull the tray out of the P100E3 node with even pressure. Figure 3-4. Drive tray pulled out

14 3. Remove the necessary drives from the drive tray. Important: If you remove more than one drive, record the order that the drives were removed so that they can be placed back in the proper location. Consider labeling each drive. a. Locate the drive carrier handle release button. b. Press the release button and swing the drive carrier handle upward. Figure 3-5. Drive handle operation The drive is now free from the tray and can be removed. Repeat these steps for all required drives. If you are removing drives as part of a Storage Node replacement, remove all of the drives. If you are returning a faulty drive, record the serial number for return purposes. - 3.1.1.3 Installing a 3.5 inch drive To install a replacement 3.5 inch drive: 1. Position the drive carrier handle on the replacement drive in the upward position. 2. Align the drive in the drive tray with the power and data connectors facing toward the rack and set it in the drive tray. 3. Swing the drive carrier handle down. The drive should slide into place and there should be a click when the drive is secured. 4. Slide the drive tray back into the system. 5. Check to make sure that the drive has been reintegrated and the status is Online. If the status is Degraded, Decommissioning, or Decommissioned, wait for approximately 15 minutes and check

15 again. Important: If the status does not change to Online, retry the replacement process or contact Quantum Corporation Support. 3.1.2 Replacing 2.5 inch drives Table 3-6. 2.5 inch drive replacement overview 3.1.2.1 Removing a 2.5 inch drive To remove the 2.5 inch SSD: Required tools Personnel required Replacement time None 1 15 to 25 minutes

Wait for ActiveScale SM to display a notification in a green banner indicating that the node was shut down successfully: h. Confirm that you shut down the right node by checking that its front and back LEDs are off. 2. Disconnect all of the cables from the faulty P100E3 Node. Important: Remove the drives before removing the P100E3 Node from the rack. You do NOT have to decommission the drives. 3. Remove the 2.5 inch drives from the P100E3 Node. For more information, refer to Removing a 2.5 inch drive on page 15. 4. Remove the 3.5 inch drives from the P100E3 Node. For more information, refer to Removing a 3.5 inch drive on page 12. Warning: There is no lock or warning indication that the P100E3 Node is about to come free from the rack. Use extreme caution. 5. Grasp the P100E3 Node and pull it out of the rack using even pressure. 6. Record the serial number for return purposes. The serial number and part number are located on a pull-out tab located to the right of the SSD drive. 3.1.4.2 Installing a P100E3 Node To install the replacement P100E3 Node: 1. Slide the P100E3 Node into the rack until it stops.

20 2. Tighten the thumb screws on the front of the P100E3 Node. 3. Replace the 2.5 inch drives. For more information, refer to Installing a 2.5 inch drive on page 17. 4. Replace the 3.5 inch drives. For more information, refer to Installing a 3.5 inch drive on page 14. 5. Reconnect all of the cables in the original configuration. For more information, refer to Cabling map on page 63. 6. Power on the P100E3 Node using the power button on the front panel. 7. If Quantum Corporation support is not onsite, contact customer support for the final post-replacement procedures for bringing the P100E3 Node online. 3.2 Mounting kit replacement instructions ActiveScale systems can use different rail kits for each component. Use the following table to determine which sections are relevant for your mounting kits. 3.2.0.1 Installing a P100E3 Node 1U mounting kit To install the replacement P100E3 Node 1U mounting kit, do the following: 1.
