We've validated that the replacement switch is online and working as intended. The faulty switch has been replaced and the potential issues should be resolved.

The cabling work has been completed, we are validating through our monitoring that everything came back as expected so at least in theory there should not be any more impact now.

The replacement switch is properly installed in the target rack and the stack has been formed, so we are moving over the server uplinks from the dead switch now.

Firmware/config uploads both done, we are proceeding with the installation in the target rack and the relevant physical work.

We have proper access to the replacement switch now, and we are continuing our staging process: uploading the correct firmware to match the other units in the stack and also preloading the existing config.

Our own engineer is on-site at the Tokyo datacenter now and we are continuing work to get remote serial console access to the replacement switch now that some required components have been brought in.
