1. With the previous module installed, set each physical interface supporting a
vNIC to none. For example:
set vnic <vnic-name> -if=none
set vnic <vnic-name> -if=none
set vnic <vnic-name> -if=none
set vnic <vnic-name> -if=none
2. When all vNIC interfaces are set to none, turn off the I/O Module. For example:
set ethernet-card 4 down
3. Disconnect cables from the 10-Port 1 GE module.
4.
Issue the remove iocard command.
remove iocard 4
5. When the command completes, physically remove the previous Ethernet card.
6. Install the 4-Port 10 GE I/O card.
7. Wait for the I/O card to power up.
8. Insert cables.
9. Set the vNICs back to the port(s) where you want them terminated. For example,
if you want one vNIC terminated on each port:
set vnic <vnic-name> -if=4/1
set vnic <vnic-name> -if=4/2
set vnic <vnic-name> -if=4/3
set vnic <vnic-name> -if=4/4
Note - You do not need to terminate one vNIC on each port. You can re-terminate the vNICs
as needed on any port. Terminating one vNIC on each port was chosen only for illustrative
purposes in this example.
As an alternative, if you are installing the 10-Port GE module into a different slot (for example,
slot 5) you can re-terminate the vNICs from the old 10-Port 1 GE module on that new slot. For
example:
set vnic <vnic-name> -if=5/1
set vnic <vnic-name> -if=5/2
