If the replacement module is incompatible with the one that was
removed, the network module looks at the information stored in the
SnapShot. If the SnapShot is enabled and the replacement module is
compatible with the information in the SnapShot, the network module
configures the replacement module with the SnapShot configuration.
Otherwise, the network module configures the replacement module to
factory default settings.
Table 3-1 shows how modules are configured after HotPnP
replacement.
While one or more replacement I/O modules in the bank are being
serviced by the HotPnP feature, the other I/O modules in the bank
remain fully operational and accessible on the network without any
interruptions. As soon as the network module configures a replacement
I/O module via the HotPnP service, that I/O module becomes
automatically accessible on the network.
