Chapter 10 Switch Maintenance Procedures
Decommissioning an AXSM Slot
If you want to use a previously configured AXSM slot for a different type of AXSM card, you must first
decommission the slot to remove the existing configuration. Otherwise, the switch will attempt to run
the old configuration on the new card, and the new card will not operate correctly.
Note If you enter the cnfpnportsig command to change default port values, you must run the delpnport
command to delete the port from the PXM45. If you do not run delpnport on the PXM45, the port will
remain in a provisioning state on the PXM45.
To decommission a slot, you need to remove the existing connections, partitions, and ports as described
below.
Step 1 Establish a configuration session using a user name with CISCO_GP privileges.
Step 2 Use the cc command to select the AXSM slot you want to decommission.
Note The AXSM card installed in the slot you are decommissioning must be the same type of card for
which the slot was configured. You cannot decommission a slot with an AXSM card type that
does not match the configured card type.
Step 3 To display the connections you need to delete, enter the following command:
mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > dspcons
The following is a sample dspcons display.
pop20one.7.PXM.a > dspcons
Local Port Vpi.Vci Remote Port Vpi.Vci State Owner
----------------------------+-----------------------------+-------+------
10:2.2:2 100 100 Routed 100 100 FAIL MASTER
Local Addr: 47.00918100000000107b65f33c.0000010a1802.00
Remote Addr: 47.009181000000002a123f213f.000001011802.00\\
Step 4 Write down the interface, VPI, and VCI numbers for each connection. You need these numbers to
complete the next step.
Step 5 Delete all connections by entering the following command for each connection:
mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > delcon <ifNum> <VPI> <VCI>
Step 6 When all connections are deleted, bring down the interface by entering the following command:
mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > dnport <ifNum>
Step 7 To display a list showing the partitions for this card, enter the dspparts command.
Step 8 Write down the interface number and partition number for each partition on the card. You will need this
information to complete the next step.
Step 9 Delete all resource partitions by entering the following command for each resource partition:
mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > delpart <ifNum> <partId>
Replace ifnum with the interface number of the port, and replace partitionID with the partition number
assigned to the port.
Step 10 To verify that the partitions have been deleted, enter the dspparts command.
Step 11 To display a list showing the ports configured for this card, enter the dspports command.
