Restarting the NIM E-Series NCE Installed in a Cisco ISR 4000 Series
If the
stop
command is issued and the NIM E-Series NCE is not physically removed from the slot, you can
restart the NIM E-Series NCE with the
start
command. From a console terminal, issue the
hw-module subslot
0/NIM-slot-number start
command. The console displays the module’s changing state.

Inserting the NIM E-Series NCE in a Cisco ISR 4000 Series
A Cisco ISR 4000 series that is up and running can detect when an NIM E-Series NCE is inserted in the NIM
slot. After the router detects the NIM E-Series NCE, the router software enables power to the server.
Removing the COA
The procedure to remove the COA is the same for M1, M2, and M3 servers.
Note
In the event that you need to return the E-Series Server, make sure that you retain the original Certificate of
Authenticity (COA) label. The COA is the label from Microsoft with the code that enables their windows
software. After you return the server, Cisco Systems cannot retrieve the COA label from the returned server.
The COA label is attached to the inside half of a plastic pull out label tray. To remove the COA label, cut
away the half of the label that contains the COA label and save it. Return the unit with the other half of the
label tray, which contains the units CLEI code, serial number, and other important unit labels, to Cisco Systems
or your licensed reseller.
