5. Contact Brocade Technical Support for the replacement WWN cards.
Brocade Support will provide replacements. Brocade Support requires the
supportSave
data that was captured in
the previous step so that the replacement cards can be programmed before shipping to your site.
Hot-Swap Replacement
You may replace one WWN card assembly at a time with the system powered on using the following steps to avoid
interruption of system operation.
Use this procedure if Brocade Customer Support has determined that a WWN card needs replaced and you have
received replacement cards. These procedures require that you use the
wwnrecover
utility.
1. Remove the defective WWN card assembly using procedures under
Removing the WWN Card and Bezel
Removing a WWN card assembly will result in RASlog messages indicating that a WWN card cannot be detected.
Since the system will be in a degraded state, replace the WWN card as soon as possible.
2. Install the replacement WWN card assembly into the empty slot using the following steps:
a) Holding the card assembly by its edges with both hands along its length, slide it into the chassis slot.
b) Push with your thumb on the end of the assembly to fully seat it into the backplane connector.
c) Use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the captive screw and secure the card assembly to the chassis.
NOTE
Be sure that the captive screws are tightened. If they are not tightened, high pressure from fan operation
may unseat cards from chassis connectors.
3. Verify that the WWN card is correctly connected by noting if the LEDs on the card reflect the status of the components.
4. Address any issues flagged by any RASlog EM-1220 and EM-1222 messages that display for the new card before
proceeding.
NOTE
To avoid invalid WWN data, errors, and operating problems, issues relating to data recovery on new WWN
cards must be resolved at this point before proceeding. If EM-1220 messages indicate that IP addresses on
installed WWN cards do not match, follow instructions in the message to recover the IP address so that both
cards use the same address.
5. Determine the active CP blade by entering the
haShow
command.
6. On the active CP blade, run the
wwnrecover
command and specify the WWN card that you replaced (WWN 2 or
WWN 1) when prompted.
7. If
wwnrecover
messages prompt for a system reboot, reboot both CP blades to ensure the system is running with
valid WWN card data.
8. Enter the
hafailover
command to force failover so that the standby CP blade becomes the active CP blade.
This command is necessary so that the correct IP address for the new card displays for the
ipaddrshow
command.
For more information on these commands, refer to the
Brocade Fabric OS Command Reference Manual
