Do you have a single OA only installed?

[Sanja1]

yes.one only. we have another c3000 backup blade.can I use it's OA?

[Torsten.]

The C3000 OA module is different and cannot be used in a C7000.

[Sanja1]

what would happen if I put OA from another c7000?

[Torsten.]

If possible, you should do a factory reset before installing it.

Then restore your backup.

Do you use virtual connect?
