Hot swap support

Interface modules are hot swappable, which means you can remove and replace them without
powering down the system; however, you must issue the disable module command before you
remove the modules from the device.

Issuing the disable module command before removing the module is not required on the FSX 800
and FSX 1600 device. This is referred to as "Enhanced Hot Swap".

Do not perform both hot swap removal and hot swap insertion of another line module while hot
swap of a line module is taking place. Wait until the current hot swap of the line module is
completed. The following message indicates that the hot swap insertion of a module is completed:

Module 1 is up and running

The following console message indicates that the hot swap removal of a module is completed:

Powering off the module in slot 1

CAUTION

It is recommended that modules be disabled through the CLI before removal from the device. If
the operator wishes to remove the module without first disabling the module, the Enhanced Hot
Swap capability in software Release 03.2.00 and later supports this procedure for the FastIron
SX 800 and FastIron SX 1600 device. Enhanced Hot Swap (that is, no CLI disable ) should be
performed during a maintenance window. On rare occasions, an Enhanced Hot Swap may result
in a software reload of the system. The likelihood of this event is very low.
