Brocade Communications Systems 4016 Manual De Usuario

Removing and Replacing the SilkWorm 4016

1.

Back up the switch configuration to an FTP server by typing the configUpload command and 
following the prompts.

This command uploads the switch configuration to the server, making it available for downloading 
to a replacement switch if necessary. Brocade recommends backing up the configuration on a 
regular basis to ensure that a complete configuration is available for downloading to a replacement 
switch. 

2.

Stop all SAN activity requiring the ports used by the SilkWorm 4016.

For details about port management, refer to your blade server documentation. Verify that there is no 
activity by viewing the SilkWorm 4016 LEDs. For details about LED activity on the SilkWorm 
4016, see
