This section explains how to replace hardware components in Supermicro 2015S nodes.
- We strongly recommend engaging an on-site engineer to replace failed hardware components including but not limited to any procedure that:
- This guide doesn't cover
- You haven't received training on
- Requires precautions to avoid damage caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD) by using industry standard anti-static equipment (such as gloves or wrist straps)
- Don't update your node firmware unless a Qumulo representative instructs you to perform an update.
- Some components may vary between node types. For information about your node, see Technical Specifications.
To Replace a Drive
Your Supermicro 2015S chassis contains 24 HDDs, 4 NVMe drives, and one NVMe boot drive in an internal M.2 expansion slot. For information about replacing a drive, see Drive Bay Mapping in this guide and Storage Drives (HDD and NVMe) in the Supermicro documentation.
To Replace a Power Supply Unit (PSU)
Your Supermicro 2015S chassis contains two PSUs. For information about replacing a PSU, see Power Supply in the Supermicro documentation.
To Replace a Fan
Your Supermicro 2015S chassis has four internal fans. For information about replacing a fan, see System Cooling in the Supermicro documentation.
To Replace a DIMM
Your Supermicro 2015S chassis has 16 DIMM slots. For information about replacing a DIMM, see DIMM Installation and DIMM Module Population Sequence in the Supermicro documentation.
To identify which DIMM failed, you must use the baseboard management controller (BMC) on the node or another hardware monitoring solution.
