bladeSwap bladeSwap Swaps the area numbers for matching port pairs of two blades. Synopsis bladeSwap -src source_slot -dest destination_slot Description Use this command to swap the area numbers for matching port pairs of two blades. All ports must qualify for swapping for this command to succeed. It validates that the blades in the indicated slots are of the same type, have the same number of ports, and that the port pairs are in the same partition. If all the ports qualify for swapping, this command automatically performs the following operations: 1. It enables the port swapping feature by executing the portSwapEnable command. 2. It takes all ports on both the source and destination blades offline by executing the bladeDisable command. 3. It swaps the matching port pairs on each of the specified blades. 4. It re-enables the blade by executing the bladeEnable command. The result of this operation is persistent across reboots and power cycles. Notes The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric restrictions that may be in place. Refer to "Using Fabric OS Commands" and "Command Availability" for details. This command leaves both the source and destination blades in a disabled state. To enable all ports on a blade, issue the bladeEnable command. To enable individual ports, issue the portEnable command. This command affects port swap information that is kept in its own database. It cannot be manipulated by editing the configuration database reported by configShow. This command is not allowed if one or both the blades are faulty. Operands This command has the following operands: -src source_slot Specifies the slot number for the source blade. -dest destination_slot Specifies the slot number for the destination blade. Use slotShow for a listing of valid slots.
