Taking the SF Module Offline in an EX8208 Switch
The SF module provides switching functionality for an EX8208 switch. Your switch can
have either zero SF modules or one SF module.
NOTE: If you take the SF module offline in a switch configuration having only one Switch
Fabric and Routing Engine (SRE) module, throughput will be low.
To take the SF module offline:
1. Take the SF module offline:
user@switch> request chassis cb offline slot 2
For an SF module, the control board slot number is always 2 .
2. (Optional) Confirm that the SF module is offline:
user@switch> show chassis environment cb slot-number
The state field in the command output shows that the SF module is offline. It is now
safe to remove or replace the SF module.
