available because you do not want to leave the slot on the Dell M1000e Blade Server Enclosure
open for an extended period of time. The slot must be filled with either a replacement SAN I/O
Module or a filler panel to maintain proper air flow.
1.
Back up the SAN I/O Module configuration to an FTP server using the
copy configUpload
command, then complete the prompts that follow. For more information on backing up a
configuration, refer to the
Brocade Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide
.
The

command uploads the SAN I/O Module configuration to the server, making it
available for downloading to a replacement SAN I/O Module, if necessary.
NOTE
It is recommended that you back up the configuration on a regular basis to ensure that a
complete configuration is available for downloading to a replacement SAN I/O Module.
2.
Using the Dell M1000e Blade Server Enclosure, ensure that all port activity used in the SAN
I/O Module and all services are stopped.
For details about port management, refer to the documentation that comes with your Dell
M1000e Blade Server Enclosure. Verify there is no activity by viewing the SAN I/O Module
LEDs. For details about LED activity, refer to
“Interpreting SAN I/O Module LED activity”
on
page 35.
3.
Disconnect all cables from the SFP+ transceivers, then remove the transceivers from the
