switch-fabric isolate

Use switch-fabric isolate to isolate a switching fabric module or channel.

Use undo switch-fabric isolate to restore the default.

Syntax

In standalone mode:

switch-fabric isolate slot slot-number [ channel channel-number ]

undo switch-fabric isolate slot slot-number [ channel channel-number ]

In IRF mode:

switch-fabric isolate chassis chassis-number slot slot-number [ channel channel-number ]

undo switch-fabric isolate chassis chassis-number slot slot-number [ channel channel-number ]

Default

A switching fabric module is not isolated from the forwarding plane and it forwards traffic.

Parameters

slot slot-number: Specifies a switching fabric module by its slot number. (In standalone mode.)

chassis chassis-number slot slot-number: Specifies a switching fabric module on an IRF member device by its slot number and the member ID. (In IRF mode.)

channel channel-number: Specifies a switching fabric channel. If you do not specify this option, the command isolates the entire switching fabric module.

Usage guidelines

This command is supported only on HPE 7910 (JG841A) and HPE 7910 TAA (JH123A) switches.

Isolating a switching fabric module or some of its channels reduces the forwarding bandwidth of the system. If the device has only one switching fabric module, isolating the module disables the device from forwarding traffic. To minimize impact on forwarding performance, isolate only the failed channels.

Only one switching fabric module can be isolated at a moment.

Examples

# In standalone mode, isolate the switching fabric module in slot 10.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] switch-fabric isolate slot 10
The command will isolate the switch fabric or a channel from the system. Continue? [Y/N]

# In IRF mode, isolate channel 1 on the switching fabric module in slot 10 of member device 1.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] switch-fabric isolate chassis 1 slot 10 channel 1
The command will isolate the switch fabric or a channel from the system. Continue? [Y/N]
