SN8000B - FC Blade Replacement Procedure

[Steven Clementi]

After coming up empty on searching for a replacement procedure, I am posting here...

Would it simply be to do a slotpoweroff for the blade, remove the blade, insert the new blade and slotpoweron?

Or is there a documented procedure somewhere?

Thanks Mike.  I found the same here as well: https://docs.broadcom.com/doc/53-1004106-11

...thanks to HPE Support.

Just wanted to confirm if manual intevention was needed.  Apparently, the FC blades are hot-swap... if you can call them that.  ;o)
