Replacing a management module
DANGER
The procedures in this manual are for qualified service personnel.
This chapter provides a recommended hardware maintenance schedule for a BigIron RX Series
switch. Procedures on how to replace the modules, AC power supply, and fan are also covered.
NOTE
The BigIron RX Series management, interface, and switch fabric modules are dedicated, which
means that you must install them in the BigIron RX Series chassis only. If you attempt to install the
BigIron RX Series modules in another Brocade chassis or a module intended for another Brocade
chassis in the BigIron RX Series chassis, the chassis and modules will not function properly.
You can remove a management module and replace it with a new one while the BigIron RX Series
chassis is powered on and running.
NOTE
The BigIron RX Series management module is dedicated, which means that you must install it in the
BigIron RX Series chassis only. If you attempt to install the BigIron RX Series management module
in another Brocade chassis or a management module intended for another Brocade chassis in the
BigIron RX Series chassis, the chassis and module will not function properly.
CAUTION
If hot removing or inserting a module, please allow a minimum of two seconds after a module (or
power supply or fan tray) has been removed before inserting a module in the same slot.
