ProcedureTo Delete Chassis

This procedure describes how to dynamically delete chassis from an I-Fabric.

Before You Begin

All server blade components of the chassis to be deleted must be in FREE or NEW state. You can change device states by using the device command. See the deletesfb1600 man page for details on how to use that command.

Steps
  1. Type the command:


    /opt/terraspring/sbin/deletesfb1600 -d chassis-ID
    
  2. If the chassis is in a valid state for deletion, you are prompted to confirm deletion of the chassis and all its subcomponents. Type y to delete the chassis an its subcomponents.

  3. Type the device -l command to verify that the chassis has been deleted.

    See the example in Understanding I-Fabric Component IDs for details on how to use this command.
