Description
This article describes how to manage specific FPC.

Solution
By default, CLI commands are executed on all FPC’s from MBD. Sometimes it is required to gather info or manage one/few FPC(s) after login to MBD. The below commands would be useful:
# exec load-balance slot ?
manage       Manage slot.
nmi-reset    NMI reset slot now.
power-off    Power off slots now.
power-on     Power on slots now.
reboot       Reboot slots now.
For example:

1) To login to FPC in slot3 of chassis 1:
# exec load-balance slot manage ?
<chassis.slot/slot>   chassis id and slot id (use a period in between e.g. 2.4) or slot id only
# exec load-balance slot manage 1.3

login: admin
Password:**********
Welcome !
CH1 [FPC03] $
2) To restart FPC’s slots 3, 5 & 6:
# exec load-balance slot reboot 3,5,6

This operation will reboot the slots: 3,5,6!
Do you want to continue? (y/n)y

Power cycle slot 3
Power cycle slot 5
Power cycle slot 6
