replacement procedure for Oneview managed Flex 10 / flex 10D Virtual connect module

[AndrewR2]

Afternon all.

I have a C700o chassis rnning several production critical bl460Cgen 9's. 

It has 2  flex 10 / Flex10d VC modules and the module in Bay 1 is failed with all links down. 

VCSU health check had the folloowing output :

I would like to know the process for replacing the failed VC including what I will need to do to ensure it is properlly configured by oneview once the physical replacement has occured. 

I would also like to know if any of this would be disruptive or not. 

Thanks in advance for the info..

Hi @AndrewR2 ,
     Please follow these-
a.  Please check whether network configuration issue for Bay 1 and Bay 2 or the VC Modules are failed.  
b.  Please check LEDs notification on VC, Is it detecting in OneView?
c.  If you are sure that the VC module is failed. Call HPE support and get the new compatible module and install it.
d. Please check the new module is listing in OneView. Configure the IP address.

HI @shiva_jr 

Replaced the module after confirming it was definitelly failed by reseating it several times and the ip address was configured by EBIPA.

The rest of the configuration was automated by Oneview so was much less complicated than I thought it would be.
