Using FlexAddress 223
3 What happens if the feature card is removed and a non-FlexAddress card
is installed?
No activation or modifications to the card should occur. The card will be
ignored by CMC. In this situation, the
$racadm featurecard -s will return a
message of:
No feature card inserted
ERROR: can't open file
4
If the chassis service tag is reprogrammed, what happens if there is a
feature card bound to that chassis?
• If the original feature card is present in the active CMC on that or any
other chassis, the Web interface displays an error that states:
This feature card was activated with a
different chassis. It must be removed before
accessing the FlexAddress feature.
Current Chassis Service Tag = XXXXXXXX
Feature Card Chassis Service Tag = YYYYYYYY
The original feature card is no longer eligible for deactivation on that
or any other chassis, unless Dell Service re-programs the original
chassis service tag back into a chassis, and the CMC that has the
original feature card is made active on that chassis.
• The FlexAddress feature remains activated on the originally bound
chassis. The
binding of that chassis feature is updated to reflect the
new service tag.
5 What if I have two feature cards installed in my redundant CMC system?
Will I get an error?
The feature card in the active CMC will be active and installed in the
chassis. The second card will be ignored by CMC.
