You also need to make sure you remove the module line from the config while the LP slot is empty, it won't let you do it if you've already inserted the new card.

Not that I’ve discovered. Unless it’s an identical card type swap,
it’s not possible. Even physically identical port layouts (Gen1
4x10g vs Gen1.1 4x10g) won’t work. The new LP won’t come up until
you physically remove the card and “no” out the relevant module
line in the config. When you do that, it blasts out any interface
config that was associated with the card.

This may be changed in newer NetIron versions. I haven’t tried it
since 5.2.

Hi all

Just wanted to check if anyone knew whether the configuration
that’s already applied to interfaces stays valid after a line card
is swapped with another.

In this example I am wanting to swap a “BR-MLX-10Gx24-DM 24-port
10GbE Module” with a “NI-MLX-10Gx8-M 8-port 10GbE (M) Module”
but I want the relevant configuration for each port to stay exactly
the same.

I am assuming so, but thought best to check before proceeding. I can
assume we’d only run in to issues where moving to a card with less
interfaces (e.g. as the startup-config was applied, no matching
interface for eth1/9 on an 8-port card would be found).

Kind Regards,
