Parameter Description
Caution – If you are pre-provisioning, when you actually install hardware modules,
make sure you get the right module type in the right slot. For example, if slot 13 is
pre-provisioned for a 10 GE module, make sure that a 10 GE module is installed in
slot 13. As an alternative, you can issue the set iocard <slot> -type command
to set change a module type for a slot before the module is inserted.
Parameter Description
<slot#>|* down Causes one or all I/O modules to be deactivated. When
the shutdown occurs, all power to the affected I/O
module is turned off. When you issue this command, a
warning message is displayed, and you are prompted for
confirmation before the module is shutdown. By default,
the module is not shut down. If you want the module
shutdown, you must explicitly answer yes (y) to the
prompt.
<slot#>|* up Reactivates one, or all, of the I/O modules that are
inactive. Bringing a module up is the opposite of shutting
down a module. When the modules are started, all power
is turned on to the affected modules. By default, the
module is brought up without confirmation.
”<text>” Specifies an optional description string. If the string will
contain multiple words that are separated by blank
spaces (for example, the Oracle Fabric Interconnect), you
must enclose the description string in double quotation
marks—for example, “Oracle Fabric Interconnect”
<value> Sets the kind of I/O module that is in the slot. This option
is useful in cases where slots are pre-provisioned for an
I/O module before the I/O module is installed. The
following options are supported:
• nwEthernet10Port1GbCard for a 10-port 1 Gbps
Ethernet card
• nwEthernet1Port10GbCard for a 1-port 10 Gbps
Ethernet card
• nwEthernet4Port10GbCard for a 4-port 10 Gbps
Ethernet card
• sanFc2Port4GbLrCard for a Line Rate Fibre Channel
