  9. 6.2.2 Active/Cold Removal Workflow of the HDD/SSD

6.2.2 Active/Cold Removal Workflow of the HDD/SSD


6.2.2 Active/Cold Removal Workflow of the HDD/SSD
You can perform active/cold removal of the HDD/SSD in the following configuration:
  1. Configuration connecting two or more SPARC M12-2S units to a physical partition
Before removing the HDD/SSD, see "Precautions for HDD/SSD removal" in "7.3 Precautions for FRU Reduction."
Table 6-5 shows the workflow for active/cold removal of the HDD/SSD.
