BD8k failover

BD8k failover

Hello, all!

Theoretical question:
BD8k with 2*MSM-48c with S-G8Xc cards.

What happend with data-ports on S-G8Xc cards when failover occurs?

Have an conflicting information:
1. When a modular chassis MSM/MM failover occurs, all of the ports in the chassis are under the control of separate processors which can communicate with the backup MSM/MM, so all ports continue to function.
Source - 16.1 User Guide
2. When you do a failover the current master slot will reboot causing all ports on that master slot to go down until the slot comes back.

Where is the truth? 

Thank you!
