Switching ethernet for fiber blades question.

I need to swap 2 fiber blades to 2 ethernet blades on a procurve 5308. I believe I can swap them while the switch is up, but is there a way to get the switch to recognize them without rebooting?
Thanks,
Steve

Re: Switching ethernet for fiber blades question.

Hi Steve,

same type of module can be hot swapped. If you have installed any modules into slots that were previously occupied
by a different type module, you need to reset the switch.

See: http://cdn.procurve.com/training/Manuals/5300xl-ModuleInstall-Dec2007-59918598.pdf
