Administrative module removal

The Remove from Domain feature enables users to remove an interconnect module from the Virtual

Connect domain without having to delete the entire domain, or having the bay permanently configured

for a specific interconnect module type.
Removing a VC-Enet module and installing it in another enclosure causes the configuration information on
that module to be cleared. This action prevents a configured spare from overwriting configuration data in

another enclosure.
To temporarily remove the module from the domain, do not click Remove from Domain. Simply re-install it

into the enclosure.
To permanently remove the module from the Virtual Connect domain be sure the following conditions are

met:

NOTE:

The attachment of stacking link cables to a module does not prevent a Remove from

Domain action.

VC-Enet conditions:

o

The user must have Domain privileges.

o

The module must be physically removed from the bay.

o

The interconnect bay must remain empty for this procedure.

o

The module uplink and downlink ports cannot be in use by networks, uplink sets, or profiles
(including FC profiles) in the enclosure.

o

Port monitoring cannot be enabled on that bay.

VC-FC conditions:

o

The user must have Domain privileges.

o

The module must be physically removed from the bay.

o

The interconnect bay must remain empty for this procedure.

o

Change all fabrics on that module to Unassigned for all Virtual Connect profile configurations.

If removing an FC module from a multi-enclosure domain, all FC modules in that bay in each
enclosure must be missing. Removing one of the missing modules removes the module from all

enclosures.

If these conditions are met, click Remove from Domain.
