H o t S w a p p i n g
The ProCurve Switch 8100fl supports “hot swapping” - the ability to replace
the following hardware components while the switch is operating: a fan tray,
power supply (if a second power supply is installed), interface module, switch
fabric module, and/or management module.
The hot swapping feature allows you to remove or install modules without
powering off or rebooting the switch. Swapped-in modules are recognized by
the switch and begin functioning immediately after they are installed.
C a u t i o n
The ProCurve 8100fl Switch and its components are sensitive to static
discharge. Use an antistatic wrist strap and observe all static precautions
when hot swapping components. For example, connect your antistatic wrist
strap to the ground point on the front of the switch, above the rightmost power
supply bay.
This unit has more than one power supply cable. To fully power down the
switch, you must disconnect all power supply cables or remove all power
supplies before servicing equipment
