Installing and Replacing the Cisco SCE 8000-SCM Module
Installing and Replacing the Cisco SCE 8000-SCM Module
In general, the Cisco SCE 8000 chassis is shipped fully configured. However, in some cases a second
Cisco SCE 8000-SCM module may be installed or removed. In such cases, make sure to see the
following guidelines:
Note Dual Cisco SCE 8000-SCM modules are supported only on systems running Cisco SCOS Release 3.6.0
or later.
• When two Cisco SCE 8000-SCM modules are installed, the module in slot 1 functions as the master,
and the one in slot 2 serves as the slave.
• If there is only one Cisco SCE 8000-SCM module installed, it must be installed in slot 1.
If the Cisco SCE 8000-SCM module in slot 2 is to become the master Cisco SCE 8000-SCM module,
the Cisco SCE 8000-SCM in slot 1 must be removed and the module on slot 2 must be moved and
reinstalled in slot 1.
No user data is saved on the slave Cisco SCE 8000-SCM, which means that no previous
configurations of any sort, including PQI and SLI, are carried with this Cisco SCE 8000-SCM.
• The system must be turned off before replacing either Cisco SCE 8000-SCM module.
• When a new package or application is installed, it is automatically installed on both Cisco SCE
8000-SCM modules. No special software installation procedures are required.
• If the second Cisco SCE 8000-SCM module (slave) is running a version or build different from the
one running on the master Cisco SCE 8000-SCM module, then, and if both versions are 3.6.0 or
later, the system syncs the package on the second module to the one on the master module at the
time of the next boot.
Note This situation can occur only when a master Cisco SCE 8000-SCM module is removed and then
inserted as a slave Cisco SCE 8000-SCM module, either in the same Cisco SCE 8000 chassis or
a different one.
Installation and Upgrade Procedures for Dual Cisco SCE 8000-SCM Modules
First-Time Installation
Step 1 Make sure that Cisco SCOS Release 3.6.0 or later has been installed on both Cisco SCE 8000-SCM
modules.
Step 2 At the SCE8000# prompt, enter reload shutdown and press Enter, and then turn off the
Cisco SCE 8000 10 GBE platform.
Step 3 Insert one Cisco SCE 8000-SCM module in slot 1 and the second in slot 2.
Step 4 Turn on the Cisco SCE 8000 power.
