Hot swapping modules
This section describes how to hot swap the modules installed in the FortiGate-4000
chassis. Hot swapping refers to removing a failed module and replacing it with a new
version of the same module while the FortiGate-4000 chassis remains in operation.
This section describes:
• Hot swapping FortiBlade-4010 modules
• Hot swapping cooling fan trays
• Hot swapping power supplies
• Hot swapping interface modules
• Hot swapping the 10/100 out of band management module
• Hot swapping the management module
• Hot swapping the KVM switch module
Note: Always wait at least five seconds after turning off FortiGate-4000 chassis power before
turning it back on. Turning the power on and off in rapid succession can damage
FortiGate-4000 electrical circuitry.
