DETAILED STEPS
Powering Fabric Modules Off or On
You can power off a fabric module by using the
poweroff xbar
slot_number
command. To power on a
fabric module, use the
no poweroff xbar
slot_number
command.
Note
If you are going to limit the maximum number of fabric modules (see the
Power Reserved for Fabric Modules” section on page 7-31
), make sure that powered-on fabric modules
are in the first
n
fabric module slots, where
n
is the new maximum number of fabric modules. For
example, if you are limiting the maximum number of fabric modules to 4, you must make sure that the
four powered-on fabric modules are in fabric slots 1 through 4.
Note
If you are powering on more fabric modules than allowed by the current maximum number of fabric
modules, then make sure that the fabric modules that you are powering on are installed in the first
n
fabric slots (slots 1 through
n
), power-on those modules with the
no poweroff xbar
command, and
change the maximum number of fabric modules to
n
(see the
“Changing the Amount of Power Reserved
for Fabric Modules” section on page 7-31
