Online Insertion and Removal

The Cisco uBR10012 router supports online insertion and removal (OIR) of the SPA interface processor (SIP)
and of the shared port adapters (SPAs). Therefore, you can remove a SIP with its SPAs still intact, or you can
remove a SPA independently from the SIP, leaving the SIP installed in the router.
Important
Note If the SIP is running normally in chassis, SPA cards can be installed and removed directly from SIP without
installing SIP.
