SAN Director 2/128 Installation Guide
Replacing a CP Card
This section describes how to remove and replace a control processor (CP) card
from the SAN Director 2/128. Each SAN Director 2/128 has two CP cards: one
located in slot 5 and the other in slot 6.
The SAN Director 2/128 can continue to operate while one CP card is replaced if
the other CP card continues to operate and no failover occurs (you can prevent
failover by entering the
hadisable
command). The active CP card is
determined by the most recent failover.
The configuration on the active CP card is automatically mirrored to the standby
CP card; this section includes steps to ensure that the new CP card boots up as the
standby CP card.
The new CP card automatically assumes the IP address and host name assigned to
the slot.
If the new CP card does not have the same firmware as the active CP card, it must
be upgraded or downgraded to the same firmware version.
Note:
Disassembling any part of a CP card voids the part warranty and regulatory
certifications. There are no user-serviceable parts inside a CP card.
To ensure adequate system pressure for cooling purposes, leave the faulty CP card in
the slot until you are ready to perform the replacement procedure.
Caution:
Disassembling any part of a CP card voids the part warranty and
regulatory certifications. There are no user-serviceable parts inside a CP card.
To ensure adequate system pressure for cooling purposes, leave the faulty CP
card in the slot until you are ready to perform the replacement procedure.
Caution:
Use the same version of Fabric OS on both CP cards. Using different
versions can cause malfunctioning. If the replacement CP card has a different
version, update cards to the same firmware version.
