Replacing a CF card
CAUTION:
Do not remove the CF card when the switch is booting or the CF card LED is flashing. Otherwise, the file
system on the hardware or the CF card might be damaged.
Before replacing a CF card, execute the umount command to unmount the CF card to ensure that the file
system on the CF card is not damaged when you remove the CF card.
After you execute the umount cf command, if you want to continue to use the CF card, execute the mount
cf command in user view to load the CF card again.
After you replace the CF card, the system automatically loads the CF card.
To replace a CF card:
1. Log in to the switch to execute the umount command. For how to log in to the switch, see
"Connecting your switch to the network."
2. Pres
s the eject button of the CF card reader as shown in callout 1 of Figure 52. Th
e reader ejects
the card part way out of the slot.
3. Remove the CF card from the reader and put it in an antistatic shielding bag.
4. Install a new CF card. For the installation procedures, see "Installing FRUs."
