To configure flexible satellite port mapping for Ethernet satellites
Overview
Use this procedure to configure any number of primary uplinks to be used between the 7x50 host, Release 15.0 R3 or later, and the Ethernet satellites to achieve uplink resiliency. You can also configure any number of secondary uplinks to be used between the 7x50 host, Release 15.0 R8 or later, and the Ethernet satellites to achieve uplink resiliency.
Note: For node versions prior to Release 16.0 R4, primary and secondary uplink ports of satellite access ports cannot be mapped to host ports of same MDA/Card in 7x50 nodes.
Note: The administrator must ensure that the new uplink port has sufficient resources to handle the re-assigned satellite ports and associated services.
