Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10 User Guide Release 10.5.0

Deployment instructions

Dell EMC recommends:

• The replacement IOM must be a new device in the chassis deployment.
  NOTE New device means an IOM that is not deployed previously within the OME-Modular multi-chassis group.
• If the faulty IOM is in SmartFabric mode, the other IOM in the SmartFabric must be up and running.
• The new IOM must be the same model as the faulty IOM. For example: If the faulty IOM model is MX9116n FSE, you must use a new MX9116n FSE as a replacement IOM.
• Ensure that the new IOM has the same OS10 version as the faulty IOM. You can check the OS10 version by logging into the OME-Modular Graphical User Interface (GUI).
  NOTE OS10 is factory-installed in the MX9116n FSE or MX5108n Ethernet Switch. If the faulty IOM has an upgraded version of OS10, you must upgrade the new IOM to the same version. To upgrade an OS10 image, see Download OS10 image for upgrade.
