Powering off the Brocade DCX
Recommended action
Enter the sensorShow command to check the
internal temperature readings. If components are
overheating, shut down port blades as necessary
to return the temperature readings to the
operating ranges.
Enter the slotShow command to determine
status. For more information, enter the
diagDisablePost command; then, use the
slotPowerOff [slot number] and slotPowerOn
[slot number] command. Resolve the source of
the problem or replace the blade as required.
Remove the blade from the chassis and inspect
the pins on the blade and on the backplane
inside the slot. Do not reinstall if the pins on
either component are damaged, as this could
damage pins on other components. Replace the
components as required.
Ensure that the component is receiving power
(power LED should be on) and the component is
firmly seated.
Remove the component from the chassis and
inspect the pins on the blade and inside the
chassis. Do not reinstall if the pins on either
component are damaged, as this could damage
pins on other components. Replace parts as
required.
Enter the tempshow and sensorShow
commands to determine the component status.
If the component is a CP blade or port blade,
enter the slotShow command to determine the
status. Replace the component as necessary
