Replacing the Server to a Different Port on the Same Switch

Detailed Steps
</h2>
<a name="wp1105362"> </a><p class="pBody">
To replace a server with a spare server on a different port in the same switch, follow these steps:

</p>
<div class="pSmartList1"><ol type="1" class="pSmartList1">
<a name="wp1105368"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">In the DCNM-SAN window, select <b class="cBold">Tools&#160;&gt;&#160;NPV&#160;&gt;&#160;FlexAttach Replace Server</b>.
</li>
<a name="wp1105369"> </a><p class="pListBodyLevel1">
The Replace Failed Server wizard is displayed. 

</p>
<a name="wp1105370"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">In the Replace Failed Server wizard, click the <b class="cBold">With Spare Server on Same NPV Switch</b> radio button.
</li>
<a name="wp1105371"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click <b class="cBold">Next</b>.
</li>
<a name="wp1105372"> </a><p class="pListBodyLevel1">
The Choose Failed Port window is displayed. 

</p>
<a name="wp1105373"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">In the Choose Failed Port selection window, from the Select a Switch drop-down list, select the switch.
</li>
<a name="wp1105374"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">From the list of interfaces displayed, select the port from which the server needs to be detached.
</li>
<a name="wp1105375"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click <b class="cBold">Next</b>.
</li>
<a name="wp1105376"> </a><p class="pListBodyLevel1">
The Choose New Port window is displayed. 

</p>
<a name="wp1105377"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">In the Choose New Port selection window, select the port on which the spare server is connected.
</li>
<a name="wp1105378"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click <b class="cBold">Next</b>.
</li>
<a name="wp1105379"> </a><p class="pListBodyLevel1">
The Server WWN window is displayed. 

</p>
<a name="wp1105380"> </a><p class="pListBodyLevel1">
In the Server WWN window, if the FlexAttach global mapping table is empty, the wizard automatically 
prefills the drop-down table with the interface virtual vPWWN of the source port to be replaced, and the 
vPWWN field is not editable. In this case, the <b class="cBold">Allow wizard to change from “pWWN to vPWWN” 
mapping to “interface to vPWWN” mapping</b> is treated as true.

</p>
<a name="wp1105381"> </a><p class="pListBodyLevel1">
If the FlexAttach global mapping table is not empty, the vPWWN field is blank and editable. From the 
drop-down list that displays all existing entries from the global mapping table, select the vPWWN entry 
or type the required entry, and the new server physical port WWN.

</p>
<a name="wp1105382"> </a><p class="pListBodyLevel1">
Check the <b class="cBold">Allow wizard to change from “pWWN to vPWWN” mapping to “interface to vPWWN” 
mapping</b> check box to remove the pWWN to vPWWN entry from the CFS Region mapping table, and 
configure the mapping only at the interface.

</p>
<a name="wp1105383"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click <b class="cBold">Finish</b> to complete the FlexAttach configuration for the spare server.
