bladeenable bladeenable Enable a blade. Synopsis bladeenable [slotnumber] Availability Admin Release V4.1.x Description Use this command to enable a blade. All Fibre Channel ports within the blade which did not fail POST are enabled. These ports may come online if connected to a device, or remain offline if disconnected. The switch may need to be enabled if it was previously disabled to make configuration changes or to run diagnostics. If the switch is connected to a Fabric, it rejoins the Fabric. After this command is issued, the 10-second Fabric stability countdown is displayed. If this switch remains the Principal switch at the end of the countdown, then it assigns itself a Domain Id. If another switch assumes the Principal role, then this switch becomes a Subordinate switch, and accepts a Domain Id from the Principal. To observe and verify the enable process, watch the front panel LEDs change from slow flashing yellow as each port is enabled. The LEDs change to green for online ports, may remain black for disconnected ports, or change to yellow for ports that do not initialize. Note: A blade cannot be disabled or enabled when the switch is disabled. Operands This command has the following operand: slotnumber Specify the slot number to be enabled.
