We need additional fiber ports on a BD6808-no available ports & all slots are full.

In order to provide additional fiber ports a G8Xi module is being changed out to a G16Xi module. The BD is running code 7.4.4.9.

I am new to working on the BD switches and had two questions.

1. Is the code 7.4.4.9 compatiable with the G16Xi module?

2. The switch is in production. The Extreme website advises against a hot swap. What is the proper way to go about replacing the card-i.e. commands and steps?
 
Cut went well no problems upgrading the card.
