Preparing for replacement
About this task
Use the following steps to prepare the system for CP blade replacement by backing up the device
configuration, connecting to the device with a serial connection, determining the active CP blade, failing
over the blade to replace, determining the firmware version on the active blade, and uploading
configuration data to the active blade.
Procedure
1. Back up the device configuration before you replace a CP blade by uploading various device
configuration files using a Telnet connection and saving them to a host computer. Before you upload a
configuration file, verify that you can reach the FTP server from the device. Perform the following
steps:
a. Enter the
configupload -all
command, specifying a file name for saving configuration data. This
saves all system configuration data including chassis and switch configuration for all logical
switches to the file name specified. For more information, refer to the Fabric OS Command
Reference.
b.
Enter the
configupload -vf
command, specifying a file name, when prompted, for saving
configuration data. This saves the backbone virtual fabric data to the file name specified. For more
information, refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference.
