3. Tighten the thumb screw inside each handle using the Phillips screwdriver.
4.
Turn the CP blade on by sliding the ON/OFF switch in the top handle up, to
cover the thumb screw.
5. Verify that the power LED is green. If not, ensure that the CP blade has power
and is firmly seated and that the ejectors are in the locked position.
6. Connect the cables to the new CP blade.
7. Remain logged in to the active CP and continue to “Verifying operation of the
new CP blade.”
Verifying operation of the new CP blade
To verify that boot and POST are complete on the new CP blade and that the CP
blade has achieved failover redundancy, complete the following steps.
1. Enter slotShow . The command output shows the new CP blade as “enabled.”
If the standby CP is unresponsive, try unplugging the new CP blade, running
haDisable on the active CP blade, and plugging the new CP blade back in. At
that point, you can repeat step 1 to begin the verification process again.
2. Determine the Fabric OS version by entering firmwareShow . If the serial
console on the replacement CP blade is connected, issue the firmwareShow
command there. More information is available through the console.
Attention: The SAN768B-2 requires Fabric OS 7.0.0 or later to be recognized.
If the firmware on the replacement blade is earlier than 7.0.0 it must be brought
up to the version on the active CP blade, which must be at least 7.0.0.
3. If the firmware versions for both CP blades are the same, skip to “Completing
the CP8 blade replacement” on page 83.
If the firmware version on the replacement blade does not match that on the
active CP blade, a warning message appears with the results of the
firmwareShow command. The results of the firmwareShow command may
look similar to the following. Note the warning message at the end of the
output.

WARNING: The local CP and remote CP have different versions

4. You must bring the replacement blade to the same firmware level as the active
blade by using the
firmwareDownload -s command directly on the replacement
blade to bring it up to the proper level. The firmwareShow command results
show which slots hold the active and standby (replacement) CP blades.
If you are using an FTP server to download the firmware, skip to
“Downloading firmware from an FTP server” on page 79. If you are using a
USB device to download the firmware, skip to “Downloading firmware from a
USB drive” on page 81.
If the firmware on the standby CP blade is more than one level down from the
level on the active CP blade, you must have formatted USB devices for each of
the versions you will need to upgrade.
