[c-nsp] Migrating multi 1Gb port-chan member ints to 10G .....possible withot having to create a new portchan?

[Pete Templin]

Copy the config off-box, trim it down to just the subinterfaces, copy 
that resulting file to bootflash. Delete the members, add the new 
members, and if you have to restore the subinterfaces, copy 
bootflash:subints-config-bits running-config

It's not hard, you can have your ducks all ready to go, and drop it 
right back in.
