Set Hardware Components to EMPTY
How to use the xtcli command to set the status of hardware components to Empty.
Use the xtcli set_empty command to set a selected component to the EMPTY state. HSS managers and the xtcli command ignore empty or disabled components.
Setting a selected component to the EMPTY state is typically done when a component, usually a blade, is physically removed. By setting it to EMPTY, the system ignores it and routes around it.
By default, when disabling a component, this command takes into consideration the hierarchy of components, performs the action upon the identified component(s) and cascades that action to any subcomponent of the identified component(s), unless the -n option is specified.
Important: The -n option with the xtcli disable command must be used carefully because this may create invalid system state configurations.
For more information, see the xtcli(8) man page.
