Before replacing the boot media, make sure to review the following requirements.

  • You must have a USB flash drive, formatted to FAT32, with the appropriate amount of storage to hold the image_xxx.tgz file.

  • You must copy the image_xxx.tgz file to the USB flash drive for later use in this procedure.

  • You must replace the failed component with a replacement FRU component you received from your provider.

  • It is important that you apply the commands in these steps on the correct controller:

    • The impaired controller is the controller on which you are performing maintenance.

    • The healthy controller is the HA partner of the impaired controller.
