Chapter 3 Deploying and Discovering Objects

Commissioning

commission all interfaces on that port adapter, and so on. However, note that before you can commission any physical object within a chassis, the chassis object itself must be commissioned. This means that you must run subchassis discovery by commissioning the chassis before you can decommission or recommission any individual objects under the chassis. If you do not want to actively manage all objects within the chassis, you can decommission the objects you are not ready to manage.

For information on decommissioning subchassis objects, see the “Decommissioning Modules” section on page 3-29or page 5-20and the “Decommissioning an Interface” section on page 5-22.

Commissioning Chassis

When you successfully commission a chassis, subchassis discovery begins automatically. Subchassis discovery discovers and commissions all objects within the chassis. Commissioning automatically starts active management (such as polling) on the chassis and all commissioned objects within the chassis. If commissioning is unsuccessful, the chassis moves into the mismatched or lost comms state. To resolve the errors which results in theses states, see the “Object States” section on page 1-23.

To commission a chassis, proceed as follows:

Step 1 Right–click (on a relevant object icon in the Map Viewer window or from an object pick list) and choose Cisco Access Router Manager > Configuration > (Chassis >) Configuration. For information on which objects allow you to launch the Chassis Configuration window, see Appendix A, “EM Windows”.

The Chassis Configuration window appears displaying the Configuration tab.
