Upgrade Procedure

Step 10: Set

SCSI IDs on

Drives

If your DEC 3000 system has a factory-installed disk drive, it is set to SCSI ID 3.

Check the SCSI ID settings you noted earlier. If one of the drives you are upgrading is set to SCSI ID 3, then change that setting.

SCSI settings not found here can be found in the DEC 3000

Model 600/600S Options Guide or in the option documentation.

Upgrade Procedure

Step 1: If Your

System Has

Factory-Installed

Drives

If your DEC 3000 system has factory-installed drives, you may need to change the SCSI IDs on the drives you are upgrading.

To display the SCSI ID settings of the drives in your DECsystem:

1.

Enter the following command to shut down the software and put the system in console mode:

shutdown -h now

2.

Enter

maint

at the prompt (>>).

3.

Enter

show scsi

at the prompt (>>>).

This display shows a TLZ04 set to SCSI ID 0 and an RZ56 set to

SCSI ID 1.

Write down your system drives and SCSI ID settings here. You will need them for future use.

Step 2: Shut

Down System

1.

To access the power switch, you must turn the keylock to the bottom position. Pull the door open.

2.

Turn off the power switch.

Caution: After you turn off the system, wait 15 seconds before unplugging the power cord.

3.

Remove external cables.

Step 4:

Remove the

RZ56E

Upgrade Procedure

To remove the drive:

1.

Loosen the captive Phillips screw that secures the front panel. See Figure 9–3.

2.

Separate the front panel from the enclosure, being careful of the remote front panel cable, which is connected to the front panel.

3.

Unplug the remote front panel cable from the module inside the front panel, and set the front panel aside. See

Figure 9–4.

4.

Loosen the upper and lower captive screws that hold the drive in place. See Figure 9–4.

5.

Using the upper and lower finger cutouts on the drive bracket, carefully pull the drive out of its backplane connector and slide the drive out of the enclosure. Support the weight of the drive at the underside of the lower bracket as the drive clears the enclosure.

Caution

Do not touch the drive module. The drive module contains sensitive electronic circuitry.
