show hardware then scrolling to the Fabric Board Status section:

■

The Model column should show the string VP-FRU-FB-QDR

If these values are not displayed, the Fabric Interconnect does not recognize the QDR Fabric

Board.

Reconnect your servers to the Fabric Interconnect by using QDR cables.

If your DDR Fabric Board had all 24 ports connected, and you will be reconnecting ports 21

through 24 on the QDR Fabric board, you will need to connect an IB expansion switch to a port

on the QDR Fabric Board. The reason for connecting the IB expansion switch is to allow the

servers that were on ports 21 through 24 to be connected to the QDR Fabric Board, which has

only 20 ports.

18.

If your data center is being managed by an SNMP management tool, through the

SNMP Manager, rediscover the devices on the new QDR fabric.

After rediscovering the devices, the procedure is complete. If you encounter problems with this

procedure, you can contact Oracle Technical Support for assistance.

You do not need to return the old Fabric Board. You can keep it as a spare part. But if you

choose to return the old Fabric Board, Oracle can dispose of it. If you choose to return the old

Fabric Board, you can use the shipping container for the QDR Fabric Board to return the DDR

Fabric Board.
