5. Make the switch operating mode and domain ID acceptable to the original
fabric. This can be done either by consulting the fabric or by taking the values
from the data saved in step 2. This procedure might include changing the default
zone setting as directed by EWS when changing interoperation mode. Any
existing zone configuration on the new switch should be removed to allow the
fabric to properly communicate current zoning when the switch joins the fabric.
6. Add the private community to the Configure > Management > SNMP tab and
ensure that it is write enabled.
7. Connect the FC connectors to the new switch. Be sure to plug them into the same
ports as on the original switch.
8. Bring the switch online.
The new switch should now connect to the rest of the fabric. Verify that the HBAs on
the servers log into the new switch in the expected locations. Verify that the HBAs
on the servers log into the new switch in the expected locations.
To ensure a highly available configuration after the switch has been replaced, verify
that all servers have eligible I/O paths through the replaced switch. For example,
you can use the PowerPath powermt command to do this.
