During the boot sequence, the system banner display pauses while it initializes the memory. Because
your RSP2 has more than 32 MB of DRAM, you might notice an increase in the amount of time required
to initialize the memory. The pause in the banner display occurs after the copyright line and before the
system displays the list of installed hardware, as shown in the following display:
%SYS-5-RELOAD: Reload requested
System Bootstrap, Version 11.1

[System initializes memory at this point in the display]
The procedures in this section are based on the assumption that your system was operating correctly until
Note
you removed (or replaced) the RSP2. If the following sequence uncovers a new problem with the power
subsystem or one of the interface processors, refer to the Cisco 7500 Series Installation and
Configuration Guide for system startup troubleshooting procedures.
Use the following startup sequences and troubleshooting procedures to isolate system problems:
When you restart the system, the system power and AC (DC) OK LEDs should go on.
Step 1
If the system power LED remains off, the RSP2 is probably not fully inserted and connected to the
backplane. Loosen the captive installation screws on the RSP2, and then use the ejector levers to
release the RSP2 and reseat it in the backplane. (For a description and illustration of the ejector
levers, see the
If the system power LED still fails to go on as expected, a power supply or input power failure could
be the problem. Before contacting a service representative, refer to the
Installation and Configuration Guide
If the system power LED goes on, the power source is good, and the power supply is functional.
When the system power LED indicates normal operation, proceed to the next step.
Step 2
Listen for the system blower and observe the fan OK LED. You should hear the system blower start
operating immediately after you turn on the system power. If you determine that the power supply is
functioning normally and that an internal fan (or the system blower) is faulty, contact a service
representative. If the blower or a power supply fan does not function properly at initial startup, you
cannot make any installation adjustments.
When you have verified that the power supply is functioning properly, observe the LEDs on the RSP2.
Step 3
The CPU halt LED always turns on during initial power-up of an RSP2 and remains on for approximately
one-half second, then turns off. If it remains on during the startup sequence, the system has encountered
a processor hardware error.
Use the show version command to check the current configuration register settings.
If the CPU halt LED remains on during a second startup attempt, suspect a processor hardware error
and contact a service representative.
During the boot process, the LEDs on most of the interfaces light in irregular sequence; this does not
Step 4
indicate either correct system startup or failure.
When the system boot is complete, the RSP2 begins to initialize the interface processors. During this
Step 5
initialization, the LEDs on each interface processor behave differently (most flash on and off). The
enabled LED on each interface processor goes on when initialization has been completed.
If the enabled LEDs on the interface processors go on, the system has booted successfully and is
now functional.
