Replace the compute enclosure

This procedure will explain how to replace a compute enclosure from the system, assuming a compute node has been removed before.

Procedure performed by: Solution administrator, ThinkAgile Advantage Support

  1. Record the serial number of the removed compute enclosure.
  2. Remove a compute node for every compute node, except step 6; there’s no need for a hardware removal from the database for the compute nodes.
  3. Add a compute node for every compute node in the new compute enclosure.
  4. Contact ThinkAgile Advantage, who then contacts Lenovo Support to request a hardware removal from the database by providing the compute enclosure serial number.
  5. Restore the enclosure to the rack.
