Reference.
Step 2 Press Y to start the switch.
Step 3 Verify that the migration was successful by entering the following command:
host_name
[local]
Check the entry in the Oper State column next to the line card or SPIO that was just switched from. Its state should be
Standby. The state of the line card or SPIO switched to should be Active.
Halting Cards
Packet processing cards or line cards that are in either the active or standby modes can be halted. Halting these
cards places them into the "offline" mode. In this mode, the card is unusable for session processing as either
an active or redundant component.
If a card in the active mode is halted, its tasks, processes, or network connections will be migrated to a redundant
component prior to entering the offline mode.
This section describes how to initiate a card halt and restore halted components.

Initiate a Card Halt

Follow the instructions below to manually initiate a card halt. These instructions assume you are at the root

slot# is the chassis slot number in which the card to be halted is installed. It can be any integer value between 1 and 7,

Are You Sure? [Yes|No]:
Step 2 Press Y to initiate the halt operation.
Step 3 Verify that the migration was successful by entering the following command:
host_name
[local]
Check the entry in the Oper State column next to the line card that was just halted. Its state should be Offline. If the card
was in active mode prior to the execution of this command, the state of the redundant component associated with it
should now be Active.
