Forced card deletion
This feature allows you to remove a module configuration from the running configuration in interactive mode, while a different module is
inserted. Users should copy the configuration of the existing module (if applicable) before performing the following steps.
1. (Optional) Copy the running configuration of the existing module interfaces to a text editor, if the new module requires the
existing configuration. The configuration for the existing module will be automatically removed from the running configuration
after you enter the
no module command as shown in the following steps.
2. Remove the existing module, and insert the new module.
The new module should come up in interactive state, and can be code synced at this time if needed.
3. Enter configuration mode.
4. Execute the following command:
device(config)#no module <slot> <module-type>
Example:
device(config)#no module 2 ni-mlx-8-port-10g-d
NOTE
This is best pulled directly from the running
configuration.
5. Answer "yes" to the prompt by pressing y .
6. Wait for the new module to come up.
7. Apply the appropriate configuration to the interfaces of the new module.
