Shutting Down Modules
This section includes the following topics:
• Shutting Down a Supervisor, page 8-22
• Shutting Down a Fabric Module, page 8-22
• Shutting Down an I/O Module, page 8-23
Shutting Down a Supervisor
To shut down a supervisor module, use the out-of-service module command to specify the slot with that
module as follows:
switch# out-of-service module slot
Shutting Down a Fabric Module
To shut down a fabric module, use either the out-of-service xbar command or the poweroff xbar
command. If you use the poweroff command, the slot remains in that state until you use the no poweroff
command. If you use the out-of-service command, the out-of-service state remains in effect until you
do something like remove the module and replace it with another module.
Note If you are going to limit the maximum number of fabric modules (see the “Changing the Amount of
Power Reserved for Fabric Modules” section on page 8-30), make sure that powered-on fabric modules
are in the first n fabric module slots, where n is the new maximum number of fabric modules. For
example, if you are limiting the maximum number of fabric modules to 4, you must make sure that the
four powered-on fabric modules are in fabric slots 1 through 4.
