cause for concern.

blade to validate a successful commit. This may take 10 minutes.

9. If you are upgrading through several levels of the Fabric OS, repeat step 5 through step 8 as

often as necessary based on the path outlined in the table above. Otherwise, proceed to step

Completing the replacement

Complete the following steps to complete the CP8 control blade replacement procedure.

1. Type haEnable to re-enable HA on the active CP blade.

NOTE

For Fabric OS 6.3.0 and later, haEnable will cause the standby CP blade to reboot. Wait until
POST completes before moving to the next step. POST is complete when the Status LED on the
CP blade returns to a steady green state.

2. Type haShow and verify that the command output includes “HA Enabled, Heartbeat Up”. If it is

not yet enabled, re-enter the command until you have verified that redundancy is achieved.

3. Type firmwareShow to verify that the firmware version has been updated and that the versions

are the same on the two CP blades. The slot numbers will be different for the DCX 8510-4 or
DCX-4S. (not all slot numbers are shown)
