Huawei OceanStor and OceanDisk storage spare parts — BOM index

Which Huawei storage families are indexed

Coverage

8 official spare-part catalogues

Product families

8

Part numbers

3,483

Models

86

Every row comes from the spare-part catalogues Huawei publishes per product family. A part number that appears in two families is listed once, with both families recorded against it, because the same FRU is genuinely shared across enclosures.

Parts by category

The split follows the official class column, not our own grouping, so a part number you find on one page will not reappear on another.

Which page to open first

The twelve category pages are not equally useful, and the difference is measurable. Two numbers decide it: how many models a typical part fits, and how many parts carry a documented substitution. A high average fit means one part number covers many systems, so a single lookup is likely to answer your question. A low average fit means the part number is system-specific and you will need your exact model before anything can be confirmed.

Read it in three ways. If you are holding a part and do not know the system, start with the categories that have a wide average fit — optical modules, interface modules, enclosures — because those parts were qualified across many platforms. If you know the system and need a drive, go straight to the drive pages and expect to match on the model list. If you are pricing a tender, the substitution column tells you where an official alternative exists and where it does not.

The catalogue is not shaped the way a bill of materials is

Storage is mostly drives by part-number count and mostly not-drives by everything else. The two SSD pages and the two HDD pages account for 2,615 of the 3,483 part numbers — about 75 percent — while the controller, interface, cabling, optical, enclosure, power, fan and memory pages together hold the remaining 868. That ratio is not a coincidence of cataloguing: drives are replaced individually and carry capacity, interface and encryption variants, so every combination became its own FRU. Controllers and enclosures are replaced as modules, so far fewer numbers are needed.

• Drives fail most often, so they carry the most part numbers and the most substitutions.
• Controllers are the most system-specific: no controller in this index fits more than seven models.
• Optical modules are the most reusable: an average of nineteen models per part number.
• Cables and fans sit in between — widely qualified, but rarely substituted.

How to read a Huawei storage part number

• It is 8 digits, sometimes 7. Huawei BOM numbers are numeric, for example 02311AFM. Older tables drop the leading zero — restore it before you search.
• Take it off the label, not off a bill of materials. The FRU label on the module is authoritative. A BOM printed in a project document may be the configurable item, not the spare.
• The suffix is part of the part number. -001 and -002 mark sub-revisions. They are different stock and are not interchangeable, even though the first 8 digits match.
• Model fit is per catalogue, not per family. A part listed for Dorado V6 is not automatically right for OceanStor V5, even when the description reads the same.
• Descriptions are reproduced verbatim. We do not translate or tidy the official description, so it will match what your own documentation and tenders already say.

Substitutions: direction and compatibility are two different things

Every substitution in the catalogue carries two independent fields, and reading only one of them is how people order the wrong part.

A one-way, complete substitution is the safe case: new replaces old, function unchanged. A two-way conditional substitution is the case that needs a conversation before you quote.

A realistic path from a fault to a part number

The order of the steps matters more than the steps themselves. Most wasted enquiries come from starting with the part number and working backwards.

• 1. Take the system model and serial from the label. Not the project name, not the purchase order description. The model string decides which part numbers are even candidates.
• 2. Take the failed module’s own label. The FRU label carries the part number, the revision suffix and often the date code. Photograph it before you remove anything.
• 3. Match on the category page, not on the search box. A drive and a controller can share a description fragment. The category narrows it before the model list does.
• 4. Check the substitution column before assuming a like-for-like exists. If the row has a replacement, it is documented and directional. If it is blank, there is no published link.
• 5. Confirm the qualification, then order. The model list is a guide to what Huawei documented, not a statement that the part is available or that it will be released for your serial.

What changes between this index and an order

Three things sit between a row in this index and a confirmed order, and none of them can be settled from the catalogue alone.

We publish the catalogue because it removes the guessing about part numbers and model fit. We do not publish availability or commercial terms, because those change and a stale figure is worse than no figure.

What this catalogue cannot tell you

Huawei classifies each spare as RSP, NRSP or NSP, and that classification drives whether it can be sold as a standalone service part. The public spare-part catalogues do not carry that field.

• RSP / NRSP / NSP status — not in the catalogue. We confirm it per order.
• Lead time and availability — stock moves; the catalogue is a static document.
• Commercial terms — never published here. Every requirement is quoted individually.
• Firmware or licence dependency — some controller and licence parts need a matching software level; that is checked at quotation, not in the table.

Parts outside these eight families — Pacific, OceanProtect, OceanStor 100D, FusionStorage, FusionCube and others — are not in this index yet. We do not describe this as a complete Huawei storage catalogue.

Frequently asked questions

How many Huawei storage spare parts are in this index?

3,483 part numbers across 8 product families, taken from the official spare-part catalogues. They resolve to 15,123 part-to-model relationships.

Does this cover every Huawei storage system?

No. It covers OceanStor V5, V5 Kunpeng, the OceanStor mid-to-high-end range, Dorado V3, Dorado V6, OceanDisk 1800, OceanDisk enterprise SSD and the OceanDisk 300P/500P/116P/SP series. Pacific, OceanProtect, OceanStor 100D and the FusionStorage / FusionCube software-defined lines are not included.

Can I order straight from a part number in the table?

Send the part number and the storage model or serial number. We confirm the RSP status and the fit against the catalogue, then quote. The table is a reference, not an order form.

Why does the description look like raw catalogue text?

Because it is. We reproduce the official description exactly, so it matches your own documentation. Rewriting it would make cross-checking harder, not easier.

Is the data usable in a tender?

Yes, as a starting reference. Part numbers, model fit and substitution direction come from Huawei’s own catalogues. Anything that decides award — RSP status, lead time, commercial terms — is confirmed in writing per requirement.
