This procedure describes how to prepare the NEM for hot-plug insertion or removal using the web interface. If you are returning a NEM to service after a hot-insertion, you will need to use the CLI command return_to_service_action = enable rather than using the web interface. See How to Prepare the NEM for Hot Plug Using the Command-Line Interface.
Before You Begin
Read the instructions in Installing or Replacing the Virtualized M2 NEM before using these commands to perform a hot-plug insertion or removal of the NEM.
For example. /CH/NEM0.
Note - Wait for the OK-to-remove LED to turn on before removing the NEM.
