•
Small form-factor pluggable (SFP, SFP+, or mSFP (FC8-64 only)) or extended form-factor pluggable (XFP) (FC10-6 blade
only) transceivers (as needed)

Optical cables (as needed)
Removing a blade
ATTENTION
Follow ESD precautions.
NOTE
The FC8-16, FC8-32, and FC8-48 blades are compatible with the Brocade DCX, Brocade DCX-4S, and the Brocade 48000.
The FC8-64 port blade, the FS8-18 encryption blade, and the FX8-24 and FCOE10-24 blades are compatible only with the
Brocade DCX and DCX-4S.
1. Remove the chassis door (
Removal and replacement of the chassis door
on page 83).
2. Check the power LED, status LED, and port status LED to identify any possible problems. A failed blade can be identified by
inspecting the LEDs on the front panel of each blade. See
on page 63 for LED locations.
3. Establish a Telnet or console session.
Before replacing a blade, establish a Telnet or console connection to determine a failure and verify operation after replacement.
Use the
slotShow
command to view the status of blades.
4. Check for adequate cable slack. Ensure there is plenty of cable slack to remove a blade without cable obstruction.
5. Ensure that the part number on the unit being replaced matches the replacement part number. The
chassisShow
command
displays information about the blades, including part numbers (
xx-xxxxxxx-xx
), serial numbers, and additional status.
6. Ensure that traffic is not flowing through the blade (port status LED should be off) prior to disconnecting cables.
NOTE
Before removing any cables from a blade, note the cable order (identify each cable by its physical port). It is a good
practice to keep a table of cable to port mapping. See
on page 135 at the end of this chapter for a
blank sample table.
NOTE
If multiple blades are being replaced, replace one blade at a time.
7. Disconnect all cables and the SFP, SFP+, or XFP transceivers from the blade. For mSFP transceivers(FC8-64 only), it is
recommended that you use the pull tab to remove the transceiver from the blade before removing the cable from the
transceiver.
8. If removing an FX8-24 extension blade, perform the following steps:
a)
Delete all fciptunnel configurations via the
portcfg fciptunnel slot / vePort
command.
b) Delete all IP Routes defined on the blade to be removed via the
portcfg iproute
command.
c)
Delete all IP interfaces (IPIFs) defined on the blade via the
portcfg ipif slot/geX | xgeX
command.
d) If logical switches are used on the switch, move all FX8-24 ports back to the default logical switch.
NOTE
If you are removing the FX8-24 blade to install in a different slot, you must remove configuration using the preceding
steps, then reconfigure the blade in the new slot. If you move the blade without performing these steps and the blade
faults, you must move the blade to the original slot and remove configuration.
