1. Open the ejector handles to approximately 45 degrees. Orient the CP blade so that the handles are
toward you and the flat metal side is on your left.
2. Align the flat metal side of the CP blade inside the lower and upper blade guides in the slot. Slide
the CP blade into the slot until it is firmly seated.
3. Tighten the thumbscrew 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 thumbscrew.
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
on page

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, perform the following steps.
1. Enter
slotShow
. The command output shows the new CP blade as "enabled."
If the standby CP is unresponsive, you can 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 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.
NOTE
The DCX 8510-8 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
on
page 91.
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.
The following example is from a DCX 8510-8 chassis.
DCX_xyz:admin> firmwareshow
Slot Name Appl Primary/Secondary Versions Status
------------------------------------------------------------------------
6 CP0 FOS v7.0.0 ACTIVE
v7.0.0
7 CP1 FOS v6.3.0a STANDBY *
v6.3.0a
* Local CP
WARNING: The local CP and remote CP have different versions
of firmware, please retry firmwaredownload command.
4. You must bring the replacement blade to the same firmware level as the active blade by running 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.
