Removing the Front GigaSMART Module
Use the following procedure to remove the front GigaSMART module from the node with the power on. The procedure shuts down the GigaSMART port , the sixteen 10Gb SFP+ ports
For removal of other GigaVUE‑HC2 modules, refer to Module Removal and Replacement Procedure (Hot Removal).
Important: Hot removal of the GigaSMART module without following the listed steps can cause system instability and require a reboot.
Before starting, make sure you are wearing an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap.
1. | Save map rules with the following CLI command: |
config text generate active running save <name.txt>
Refer also to Backing Up Running Configuration.
2. | To prepare the module for removal, press and hold the H/S button, then release it. The LED will blink for a few seconds. |
Note: Pressing the H/S button is the same as issuing the following CLI command:
(config) # card slot <slot ID> down
3. | Wait for the module to shut down: Rdy LED goes red; H/S LED goes solid blue. |
4. | Slide the module out of the chassis and store it in a static-safe location. |
5. | Insert the new GigaSMART module. |
6. | Wait for the module to come back up: Rdy LED goes green; H/S LED goes off. |
7. | To verify the module is operationally up, issue the following two CLI commands: |
(config) # show cards(config) # show card slot <slot id>
Note: The output of the show cards command displays the operational status of the GigaSMART Front module as up in the Oper Status field, as follows:
(config) # show cards
Slot Config Oper Status HW Type Product Code Serial Num HW Rev----------------------------------------------------------------------
cc1 yes up HC2-Main-Board 132-00AN 1AN0-00E4 B1-251 yes up SMT-HC0-X16 132-00AT 1AT0-0151 A0-5
1 yes up SMT -HC0-Q02X08 132-00F7 1F70-0075 2.3-c
However, the processor on the GigaSMART Front module takes a minute to become operationally up. The show card slot <slot id> command displays the status of the card as well as the status of the processor. Issue the show card slot <slot id> command to verify the processor state in the e1 State field. You may have to issue the command a few times to watch the e1 State transition from down to up, as follows:
(config) # show card slot 1/1
Slot Config Oper Status HW Type e1 State e2 State
------------------------------------------------------------1 yes up SMT-HC0-X16 down N/A
(config) # show card slot 1/1
Slot Config Oper Status HW Type e1 State e2 State
------------------------------------------------------------1 yes up SMT-HC0-X16 up N/A
8. | Apply GigaSMART licenses with the following CLI command: |
license install box id <#> key
