Linecard Online Insertion And Removal - Dell Force10 S4810P Configuration Manual

disrupted. Use the command

taken offline, and the SFM state set as standby. Use the command

Linecard Online Insertion and Removal

FTOS detects the line card type when you insert a line card into a online chassis. FT OS writes the line card
type to the running-config and maintains this information as a logical configuration if you remove the card
(or the card fails), as shown in the example below.
