NOTE: Some FRUs in the chassis may use significant power, yet cannot be powered off through software.
For example, a missing blower FRU may change the power computation enough to affect how many slots
can be powered up.
The powerOffListShow command displays the power off order.
Blade terminology and compatibility
Before configuring a chassis, familiarize yourself with the Director CP blade and port blade nomenclature,
as well as the port blade compatibilities. Often in procedures, only the abbreviated names for CP and port
blades are used (for example, the FC4-16 blade). Table 64 includes CP and port blade abbreviations and
descriptions.
