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
.
9. 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
•
licenseidshow
•
switchname
•
wwncardshow ipdata
10. If replacing the second WWN card, repeat the previous steps in this procedure for the other card.
11. Install the WWN bezel on the chassis.
a) Orient the bezel on the chassis.
b) Insert and tighten both screws using a Phillips screwdriver.
12. Pack faulty WWN cards in the packaging provided with the replacement cards, and return them to Brocade Support for
failure analysis (FA).
Cold-Swap Replacement
Use this procedure when you can interrupt system operation and replace one or both WWN cards with the system
powered down. You can replace one WWN card or both WWN cards, one at a time, with system power on using steps
under
NOTE
Be aware that if replacing both WWN cards, the IP addresses on the new WWN cards will be in effect when
the device powers up. If these IP addresses are different from the previous cards, then you will not be able to
establish SSH or other sessions that use the previous IP addresses. You can change IP addresses on the new
cards using the
ipaddrset
command.
1. Unpack the replacement WWN card assembly and save the packaging for the faulty WWN card(s).
The WWN card assemblies are labeled #1 for the left slot and #2 for the right slot.
2. Perform the following steps.
a) Log on to the device and execute the
switchcfgpersistentdisable
command on the main switch and other
logical switches. The
switchcfgpersistentdisable
command disables the switches and ensures they remain
disabled after the power is cycled. This allows you to check all the settings so that you can verify them before
placing the device back into production.
switch:admin> switchcfgpersistentdisable
Switch's persistent state set to 'disabled'
If there are other logical switches on your chassis, use the
setcontext
command to connect to all the other
switches and then run
switchcfgpersistentdisable
on these switches as well.
