Replacing the SAN Volume Controller 2145-8F4 or SAN Volume Controller 2145-8F2 top cover

This topic describes how to replace the SAN Volume Controller 2145-8F4 or SAN Volume Controller 2145-8F2 top cover.

Important: Before you turn on the node, replace the cover for proper cooling and airflow. Operating the node for extended periods of time (more than 30 minutes) with the cover removed might damage components.
Important: Before you slide the cover forward, make sure that all the tabs on both the front, rear, and side of the cover engage the chassis correctly. If all the tabs do not engage the chassis correctly, it will be very difficult to remove the cover later.
