I need an MSA 1000 FibreChannel IO Board (daugthercard)

[Malcolm Dunnett]

I have an MSA1000 controller module which won't talk to the fibrechannel port in the box. I've determined the problem is within in the controller module by swapping the controllers (its a dual controller system) and FC IO modules around and observing the problem move with the controller.

Opening up the controller I notice a daughtercard which is labelled 010677-001 and has "Fibre Channel_IO" etched into the PCB. I would hazard a guess this is the failed part and that the rest of the controller is fine. The card is just a plug-in module so it's easily field replaceable ( no different than swapping a cache module in the controller ).

I've searched the HP Parts website but can't find this part number listed. Does anyone know if it's possible to buy just this daughtercard rather than an entire new MSA1000 ( it's out of warranty and not on maintenance ).

Trademoon e.g. has this part listed as 'currently out of stock', may be they can get it...
