Remove and insert interconnects

After completing cabling of the HPE Synergy logical enclosure and re-parenting the logical enclosure, you can add or reposition the Virtual Connect master and satellite interconnect modules to match the target configuration.

Procedure

When removing interconnects:

  1. Pull the interconnect partially out of the enclosure.
  2. Wait for HPE OneView to recognize that the interconnect has been removed.
  3. Remove all CXP (common transceiver pluggable) cables.
  4. Reposition stacking link cables, if necessary.

When adding the interconnects and before inserting the CXP cables:

  1. Insert the stacking link cables into the master interconnects, if applicable.
  2. Insert each interconnect fully into the target enclosure.
  3. Ensure that each interconnect displays as being ready (green dot) on the HPE OneView user interface.

NOTE:

It might take several minutes to logically remove, insert, and register the interconnect.
