Placing a Fibre Channel Interface Card Off-Line Using the Web

Administrator

It is not necessary to remove power from the Interface Manager in order to

remove an interface card from its slot. But, it is highly recommended to inform

the firmware of your intention to do so. Placing the interface card Off-Line tells

the firmware on the RMC, on the controller card, and on the interface card that

the card is going to be removed. When it is ready for removal, the upper right

LED on the interface card will turn yellow.

Note

An administrator’s password is required before any changes can

be submitted.

Note

Slot number1 should contain the RMC (disregard the card type

number 2 on the card, the correct slot number is 1). Slot number

2 should contain the Controller card (disregard the card type

number 3 on the card, the correct slot number is 2). Interface

cards are in slots numbered 3 through 12.

To take a Fibre Channel interface card off-line, do the following:
1. Access the Web Administrator as described in

Making Changes via the

Web Interface

on page 56.

2. Select

the

[Operations] tab.

3. Select

the

[Interface Card Replacement] button.

4. Move the mouse over the image of the interface card that you wish to

place Off-line, (see

Figure 12

on page 65), and click on that image.
