Removing and Replacing SFM3s
To remove and replace an SFM3:
NOTE: If you mistakenly insert an SFM3 too quickly after removing it, traffic flow is interrupted. To correct the
situation, remove an active SFM3 or the standby SFM3, wait several seconds, and reinsert. System
messages stating that the active interfaces’ status changed and the switch fabric is up appear when an SFM3
is inserted correctly and traffic is flowing.
To remove and replace a fan tray:
1 Loosen the captive screws on the fan tray with a #2 Phillips screwdriver.
2 Prior to removing a fan tray, turn the screw latch counter-clockwise (with a Phillips screwdriver)
until the fan tray latching mechanism retracts into the fan tray.
3 Grip the handle and pull the fan tray halfway out from the chassis. Wait 30 seconds until the fan
blades stop rotating then remove.
5 If you are installing a line card, follow these procedures:
• If you are hot-swapping (replacing the line card with the same card type), no additional configuration is
required.
• If you are installing a different line card type, enter, in Configuration mode, the following command:
linecard number card-type,
where number is a slot number from 0 to 13, and card-type is the five-character code for the card type.
• If you are replacing the line card with a blank panel, delete the line card information from the configuration by
entering:
no linecard
6 If you are not operating your system with redundant cards (with only one line card, one RPM, and eight SFM3s)
you power off your system until the cards are replaced.
Step Task
1 Loosen the captive screw and pull the ejector lever towards you to disengage the backplane connections.
2 Slide the card out of the slot and store in the original anti-static packaging. System messages appear on the
console, including the following:
%TSM-6-SFM_REMOVE: Removed SFM
Wait 5 to 10 seconds to install a new SFM3 or reinsert an SFM3. *
3 Remove the new SFM3 from the antistatic packaging.
4 Align the new SFM3 with the guide and gently slide the card into the slot until you feel the connectors engage
with the chassis backplane.
NOTE: Hold the SFM3 by the edges. Avoid touching the printed circuit board and connector pins. Extend the card
lever before you insert the card into the slot.
5 Rotate the lever to seat the backplane connectors and SFM3 in place.
6 Secure the SFM3 in place using the provided screw.
7 If you are not operating your E1200 system with redundancy, replace the empty slot with a filler panel blank.
Blanks do not have board components or connector pins. Align the blank with the guides and gently slide toward
the backplane. Rotate the lever to secure the blank in place.
