Hardware Installation Guide
5. Install replacement WWN card assemblies 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 device slot.
b) Push with your thumb on the end of the assembly to fully seat into the backplane connector.
c) Use a No. 1 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 the captive screws have not been tightened, high
pressure from fan operation may unseat cards from chassis connectors.
6. Power on the device and wait for five minutes for the device to boot.
7. Verify that the new WWN cards are correctly connected by checking the LED functions. For details on LED operation,
see
.
NOTE
The LEDs may take up to two minutes after WWN card installation to begin functioning.
8. Resolve any issues flagged by RASlog EM-1220 and EM-1222 messages that display for the new card(s) before
proceeding.
NOTE
Issues relating to data recovery on new WWN cards must be resolved at this point before proceeding to
avoid invalid WWN data, errors, and operating problems.
9. Determine the active CP blade by entering the
haShow
command.
10. On the active CP blade, run the
wwnrecover
command and specify WWN 2 card for recovery when prompted in
wwnrecover
output messages. See
for more information on this command.
11. If
wwnrecover
messages prompt for a system reboot, reboot both CP blades to ensure that the system is running
with valid WWN card data.
12. Verify the new card settings by running the following commands and comparing the output with the original
supportsave
data:
•
chassisname
•
chassisshow
(look at the WWN and chassis information at the bottom)
•
ipaddrshow
•
license --show -lid
for Fabric OS 9.0 or higher, or
licenseidshow
for Fabric OS versions earlier than 9.0
•
switchname
13. Run the
switchcfgpersistentenable
command to persistently enable each logical switch that was disabled
before removing the WWN card(s):
switch:admin> switchcfgpersistentenable
Switch's persistent state set to 'enabled'
14. Install the WWN bezel on the chassis.
a) Orient the bezel on the chassis.
b) Insert and tighten both screws using a Phillips screwdriver.
15. Pack faulty WWN card assemblies in the packaging provided with the replacement cards, and return them to Brocade
Support for failure analysis (FA).
Removing the WWN Card and Bezel
Two WWN cards are located behind the WWN bezel. As you face the bezel on the nonport side of the device, WWN 1 is
located on the left side, and WWN 2 is on the right. When cards have been determined faulty and the replacement WWN
cards have been received, complete the following steps to remove the bezel and faulty WWN cards.
