Caution
Online Insertion and Removal of a SIP
The Cisco 10000 series router supports online insertion and removal (OIR) of the SPA interface
processor (SIP) and of the shared port adapters (SPAs). Therefore, you can remove a SIP with its SPAs
still intact, or you can remove a SPA independently from the SIP, leaving the SIP installed in the router.
To remove a SPA, refer to
Chapter 6, "Installing and Removing a
SPA".
Although graceful deactivation of a SIP is preferred using the hw-module slot shutdown command, the
Cisco 10000 series router does support removal of the SIP without deactivating it first. If you plan to
remove a SIP, you can deactivate the SIP first, using the hw-module slot shutdown command in global
configuration mode. When you deactivate a SIP using this command, it automatically deactivates each
of the SPAs that are installed in that SIP. Therefore, it is not necessary to deactivate each of the SPAs
prior to deactivating the SIP.
For information about the recommended procedures for physical removal of the SIP, refer to the
"Removing a SIP" section on page
5-52.
