Current hosts available for removal:
Caution if the SID is non-zero, the host may be logged in to one or more interface
controllers.
(Note: If a host is currently mapped, it will not be displayed in the following list.)

Host # WW Node Name WW Port Name Current Name(Alias) SID

/>replace interface

The Interface Controller Replacement Wizard guides you through the interface
controller replacement procedure. You will be asked to confirm which Interface
Controllers have been removed from the library and verify that a replacement
interface controller(s) has been correctly cabled. Once the replacement Interface
Controller(s) has been identified the wizard will automatically reconfigure all
interface controller settings. These settings may include:
- Fibre Channel Port Speed
- Fibre Channel Port Mode
- Secure Manager and Partitioning settings
- Robotics (SIPP) Settings
- WWN Information

When replacing an Interface Controller it is critical that the new card is
cabled identically to the one it is replacing. Carefully document the
current cabling prior to removing the card.

The following cards on the specified library platform may be hot swapped:
- 4 Gig IFC on ESL-e

For all other card/library combinations you must power off the library
before replacing the controller(s).

Press 'C' to continue (default), or 'Q' to quit this process
>> c
At this point, please take the following steps:

1. Document the cabling currently used by the Interface Controller(s) that need
to be replaced.
2. If any of the cards to be replaced are not hot-swappable, please power down
the library prior to swapping the cards. If the library is powered down you
will need to restart this wizard after powering up the library.
3. Remove the Interface Controller(s) from the library.
4. Add the replacement Interface Controller(s) to the library.
5. Re-cable each replacement Interface Controller identically to the one replaced
(WARNING) Do not connect new FRUs to hosts until this wizard has completed.

Warning: You must identically re-cable the IFC or the IM will not be able to
re-apply the settings.

Press 'C' once the IFCs have been swapped. If you need to power down the library
press 'Q' and restart this wizard after restoring power to the library.
