A Summary of Commands

detach

detach

The detach command places a card or channel in the NONEX state. If a card is detached, it can then be replaced by hot swapping (that is, like-for-like replacement). The blue LED indicates that is ready to be removed from the system.

Synopsis

detach unit number [-i] [-n]

Description

The detach command places a unit currently in the manual-out-of-service (MANOOS) state into the nonexistent (NONEX) state. Before this can be done, the unit must be taken from the in-service (INSERV) or broken (BROKEN) state and put in the MANOOS state using the remove command.

The parameters for the detach command are:

unit — Identifies the unit. The choices are “channel” or “card.”

number — Specifies the channel or card number, a range of channel or card numbers in the form m–n, or the word “all” for all of the channel or card numbers. Card numbers are in the form card#[.port#] where port# is the port of the card#. If port# is not given, all ports of the card specified are detached. If no card number or channel is given, the system displays a syntax message.
