Preparing for Online Removal of a SPA
The Cisco 7600 series router supports OIR of a SPA independently of removing the SIP or SSC. This
means that a SIP can remain installed in the router with one SPA remaining active, while you remove
another SPA from one of the SIP subslots. If you are not planning to immediately replace a SPA into the
SIP, then be sure to install a blank filler plate in the subslot. The SIP should always be fully installed
with either functional SPAs or blank filler plates.
The interface configuration is retained (recalled) if a SIP or SPA is removed and then replaced with one
of the same type. This is not the case if you replace a Cisco 7600 SIP-200 with a Cisco 7600 SIP-400 or
vice versa.
If you are planning to remove a SIP along with its SPAs, then you do not need to follow the instructions
in this section. To remove a SIP, see the
“Preparing for Online Removal of a SIP or SSC” section on
page 5-2
.
Deactivating a SPA
Although graceful deactivation of a SPA is preferred using the
hw-module subslot shutdown
command,
the Cisco 7600 series router does support removal of the SPA without deactivating it first. Before
deactivating a SPA, ensure that the SIP is seated securely into the slot before pulling out the SPA itself.
