Resetting FC I/O Blade Ports
Administrators can reset individual ports on FC I/O blades. Resetting
these ports can help troubleshoot FC I/O blade issues. The Setup - Blade
Control
screen allows you to perform the Reset Port operation on a
selected FC I/O blade port.
Resetting an FC I/O blade port will cause a temporary loss of
communication with connected hosts. The screen will display a warning
message about the communication loss and ask you to confirm that you
want to proceed.
Note: Before permanently removing the FC I/O blade, verify the
location of the FC I/O blade. See Identifying FC I/O Blades on
page 393.
