MSA6X Series Enclosure
About this document
and ProLiant DL320S
This document details procedures for replacing a failed
backplane in an MSA6X Series Enclosure or ProLiant DL320S.
Backplane replacement
Before you begin
instructions
CAUTION: Before removing the failed component, make sure
that you have the replacement part available. Removing a

component impacts the airflow and cooling ability of the
device.
For updates, visit the HP website:
http://www.hp.com/support/manuals.
To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not
operate the enclosure unless all bays are populated with either

a component or a blank.
Do not remove more than one component or blank from the
enclosure at a time. Doing so impacts the airflow and cooling
ability of the device. To avoid possible overheating, insert the

new or replacement component as quickly as possible. If the
internal temperature exceeds acceptable limits, the enclosure

may overheat and automatically shut down or restart.

Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Use proper

anti-static protection.


Verifying component failure


Before replacing the backplane, use the following methods to
verify component failure:

•
Check the hard drive status LEDs as identified in the

following table. Check with known good hard drives.

•
Check the host log for errors.
