WARNING: The domain ID will be changed. The port level zoning may be

affected

c. Re-enable the SAN I/O Module by entering the switchEnable command.

NOTE

It could take a short time (typically a few seconds, but sometimes a little longer) for the newly
added SAN I/O Module to appear in the fabric display with its newly assigned domain ID.

4. If you need to install SFP transceivers, install them in the external Fibre Channel ports as

required.

a. Remove the dust plugs from the ports to be used.

b. If necessary, remove the end caps from the SFP.

c. Orient the transceiver correctly and insert it into a port until it is firmly seated and the

latching mechanism clicks.

For instructions specific to the type of transceiver, refer to the transceiver manufacturer’s
documentation.

d. Repeat substeps a, b, and c for the remaining ports, as required.

5. Connect the cables to the transceivers.

The transceivers are keyed to ensure correct orientation. If a transceiver does not install easily,
ensure that it is correctly oriented and that the end caps have been removed. The cables used
in trunking groups must meet specific requirements. For a list of these requirements, see the
Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide.

ATTENTION

A cable should not be bent to a radius less than 5.08 cm (2 inches) under full tensile load and 3.048
cm (1.2 inches) with no tensile load.
