Removing and installing a PCIe cable for an EDR1 PCIe storage enclosure

Depending on the model of PCIe storage enclosure that the PCIe cable connects, you might be able to replace the PCIe cable with the system powered on and active partitions.

• If you are replacing a PCIe cable that connects a 5888 PCIe storage enclosure, you must replace the PCIe cable with the system powered off.
• If you are replacing a PCIe cable that connects any other PCIe storage enclosure, you can replace the PCIe cable either with the system powered on and partitions active or with the system powered off.
