BES removal and replacement

2. Reclaim the WWN base of BES3.
cryptocfg --reclaimWWN –membernode <switchWWN> [-list]
3. Synchronize the crypto configurations across all member nodes.
cryptocfg –-commit
NOTE
When attempting to reclaim a failed Brocade Encryption Switch, do not execute
cryptocfg –-transabort. Doing so will cause subsequent reclaim attempts to fail.
When BES3 has not failed, complete the following steps:
1. From the group leader, enter the following command to reclaim the VI/VT WWN base for the
node to be removed.
cryptocfg --reclaimWWN -membernode <BES3-WWN>
When prompted, enter Yes.
NOTE
Do not use the above command with the -list option between steps 1 and 4.
2. From the group leader, enter the following command to propagate the change to all nodes in
the encryption group.
cryptocfg --commit
3. Enter the following command in BES1 to eject node BES3 from the encryption group:
cryptocfg --eject -membernode <BES3-WWN>
4. Enter the following command on BES1 to deregister the ejected node from the encryption
group:
cryptocfg --dereg -membernode <BES3-WWN>
5. Execute the following command on the BES3:
cryptocfg --reclaimWWN -cleanup
6. Replace the old Brocade Encryption Switch with the new Brocade Encryption Switch and
reattach the IO Link cables and Mgmt Link. Connect the IO sync ports to the same private LAN
as the IO sync port of the failed node.
7. Run the following command on the ejected member node:
cryptocfg --reclaimWWN -cleanup
NOTE
Do not reconnect the FC cables yet.
8. Power on the new Brocade Encryption Switch.
