Online Insertion and Removal with a CE Network Module
Some Cisco modular access routers allow you to replace network modules without switching off the
router or affecting the operation of other interfaces. This feature is called online insertion and removal
(OIR). OIR of network modules provides uninterrupted operation to network users, maintains routing
information, and ensures session preservation. To find out if the router you are working on allows OIR,
see the router model's hardware installation guide.
Caution Unlike other network modules, CE network modules use hard disks. Online removal of disks without
proper shutdown can result in file system corruption and might render the disk unusable. The
operating system on the CE network module must be shut down in an orderly fashion before the
network module is removed.
Cisco routers support OIR with similar modules only. If you remove a network module, install
Caution
another module exactly like it in its place. If you remove a 2-slot network module (along with any
installed WAN or voice interface cards), install another module and card combination exactly like it.
For a description of informational and error messages that may appear on the console during this
procedure, see the hardware installation guide for your type of router.
To perform online removal of a CE network module and insertion of a replacement, follow these steps
with the router in privileged EXEC mode:
Initiate a CE network module console access session using the following command:
Step 1
Router# service-module content-engine slot / unit session
Trying 10.10.10.1, 2129 ... Open
CE-netmodule con now available
Press RETURN to get started!
CE-netmodule> enable
CE-netmodule#
OL-2485-20
Meaning
There is activity on the 40- or 80-GB disk expansion module hard
drive.
Note The faceplate for the CE network module with SCSI controller
expansion module also displays the disk LED, but the LED is
not active.
The module has passed self-test and is available to the router.
The Fast Ethernet connection is available to the network module.
Power is available to the network module.
