Preparing for WWN card replacement

About this task
If the WWN cards require replacement, complete the following steps. Follow electrostatic discharge (ESD)
precautions.
Procedure
1. Open a Telnet session to the device and log in to the active CP blade as admin. The default password
is "password".
2. Verify that you are logged in to the active CP blade. Run the haShow command to determine the active
CP blade.
3. Run the supportSave command on the active CP blade to capture all settings. These settings will be
referenced to verify the settings have been correctly programmed after WWN replacement.
4. Run the following commands on the device before replacing the cards so that the data can be verified
after the replacement:
v licenseidshow
v ipaddrshow
v switchname
v chassisname
v wwncardshow ipdata
v chassisshow (look at the WWN and chassis information at the bottom)
v ficonshow switchrnid (FICON/mainframe environments only)
v configupload -all
v configupload -vf
Issue
Some kind of error or mismatch has been detected in the
WWN card audit.
A second WWN card is enabled and the WWN card
audit will be run. If an error is detected during the audit,
EM-1220 and EM-1222 messages are generated.
WWN card has been removed from the device. Replace
as soon as possible since system is in degraded state.
An error is detected during normal access to the WWN
cards; typically, one of the cards is corrupted or
inaccessible.
The license ID on the two WWN cards do not match.
