Installing and Formatting CompactFlash Cards
Each supervisor module on a Cisco Nexus 7000 Series device is shipped with a CompactFlash card
installed in the LOG FLASH reader. The EXPANSION FLASH reader is left empty, but you can
optionally install a card in that reader. For the card to function with the reader, you must make sure that
it is either formatted for the reader before installing it or format it after installing it.
The LOG FLASH and EXPANSION FLASH readers require different formats for their cards.
Note
To replace an installed CompactFlash card, see the "Replacing a CompactFlash Card" section on
page 8-15.
