• Insert the cards swiftly and firmly, but do not shove them in.
• If present, be sure to use the little plastic levers on the side of the card to lock the card in.
• If the OIR is successful, there is absolutely no need to schedule a reload of the router.
Refer to the hardware installation guide for inserting or removing any card.
Supervisor Card and Supervisor PIC supports OIR without any software operation, but here are some
recommendations if you need to perform OIR of the Supervisor Card and Supervisor PIC:
• Check the Active/Standby state of the Supervisor Card or Supervisor PIC, which will perform OIR, by
using the
show redundancy
command.
• Use the
redundancy force-switchover
command if the location of the Supervisor Card or Supervisor
PIC is on the active slot.
• Perform OIR.
When you perform an OIR, the power supply to the corresponding Supervisor Card or Supervisor PIC
is cut off.
If you are performing an OIR on a standby Supervisor Card or a Supervisor PIC, cBR-8 might show error
messages, which you can ignore. When you insert the Supervisor Card or a Supervisor PIC the next time, the
card will function properly.
Verifying Status after an OIR
Execute the
show platform
command to check the status.
