DETAIL:

The FRU number is located on the bottom of the daughterboard that attaches to the hot-swap backplane.

Note: When viewing the FRU number on the Hot Swap Backplane Assembly, you may not see the letters "FRU".

Replace the Hot Swap Backplane Assembly as follows:

       Rack : replace FRU P/N 20L1434 with
              FRU supplied in FBM P/N 61H3254.
       Tower : replace FRU P/N 20L1435 with
               FRU supplied in FBM P/N 61H3255.


Refer to the HMM section "Hot Swap Backplane Assembly Removal" for instructions on removing the backplane assembly.

The following must be replaced:

FRU P/N 20L1434 (rack model)
FRU P/N 20L1435 (tower model)

The following may be replaced if both conditions apply:

FRU P/N 61H3248
FRU P/N 61H3249

       Condition 1 = NO Mylar Tape located on the drive
                     side of the card between the mounting
                     holes next to the LED's for J9 & J10.
