4. Pack the faulty CP blade in the packaging provided with the new CP blade, and contact the switch supplier to determine the
return procedure.
5. Replace the chassis door.
If you have one or more application or extension blades in the chassis, the Fabric OS automatically detects mismatches
between the active CP
rmware and the blade's rmware and triggers the auto-leveling process. This auto-leveling process
automatically updates the application blade rmware to match the active CP. At the end of the auto-leveling process, the active
CP, application, and extension blades will run the same version of the rmware.
