6. Replace the blade server FC HBA mezzanine cards with FlexFabric Adapter mezzanine cards.
7. Unassign any FC profile connections that are attached to the interconnect bays being replaced.
This can be done by unassigning the FC connections in the server profile. HP recommends
that you do this in order so you do not lose the WWN addresses.
8. Delete any FC SAN fabric connections that were created using uplinks from the interconnect
bays that are to be replaced.
9. Remove the existing modules that are not FlexFabric from both horizontally adjacent bays
three to eight.
10. Add the two existing VC modules in both horizontally adjacent bays three and four with
appropriate FC SFP+ transceivers.
11. Create new networks with FC SAN fabrics linked to the new FlexFabric module uplink ports.
12. Reassign the Ethernet connections in server profiles or add new connections to the server
profiles, depending on what was selected in Step 4 and Step 7 .
13. Save the configuration again.
IMPORTANT: HP recommends that you save the configuration so that if there is a problem
with the VC firmware upgrade you can restore the system to the last configuration snapshot.
14. Remove the Ethernet modules from bays one and two.
15. Add the two existing VC Ethernet modules in both horizontally adjacent bays one and two.
16. Follow the Virtual Connect Domain Setup Wizard, and select the option to restore the domain
for the saved configuration file in “Replacing VC Ethernet and FC modules with FlexFabric
modules in an existing VCEM managed VC Domain” (page 52) .
After performing all the steps in “Replacing VC Ethernet and FC modules with FlexFabric modules
in an existing VCEM managed VC Domain” (page 52) you can create, or edit any existing server
profiles and use the available networks or SAN Fabrics from the FlexFabric module to create iSCSI
connections.
