Installation in a Powered System Supporting Hot Swap
IXP/CPCI-9120 supports "full hot swap".
The basic purpose of "hot-swap support" is to allow a board to be installed and removed in a
powered system without adversely affecting system operation. With hot-swap support, defec-
tive boards can be repaired and systems can be reconfigured without disrupting system opera-
tion and with minimum operator intervention.
Caution Never hot-swap the IXP/CPCI-9120 unless a hot-swap or high availability platform is
used and the documentation of all installed boards and the system documentation explic-
itly include appropriate guidelines. Live insertion/extraction of the IXP/CPCI-9120
into/from a System slot is not supported.
Control Elements
The board provides the following elements as man-machine interface:
•
Hot-swap switch
•
Blue hot-swap LED
Integrated in the lower injector/ejector handle of the front panel, the hot-swap switch allows
you to indicate the intention to remove the board. The hot-swap switch is turned on when you
move the lower injector/ejector handle inwards.
When the blue hot-swap LED glows, it indicates that you can safely remove the board.
