ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 supports only the Summit X450 family of switches and the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch.
Troubleshooting Commands
NOTE
On the BlackDiamond 10808 switch, run diagnostics when the switch can be brought offline. The tests conducted
are extensive and affect traffic that must be processed by the system CPU. The CPU processes the diagnostics
whether you run diagnostics on an I/O module or a management module.
On an I/O module, the extended diagnostic routine can require significantly more time to complete,
depending on the number of ports on the module.
On a management module, the module is taken offline while the diagnostics test is performed. Once the
diagnostic test is completed, the MSM reboots, and becomes operational again.
NOTE
BlackDiamond 8810 switch (formerly known as Aspen)—If you run diagnostics on slots 5 and 6 with an MSM
installed in those slots, the diagnostic routine tests the I/O subsystem of the MSM.
BlackDiamond 8806 switch—if you run diagnostics on slots 3 and 4 with an MSM installed in those slots, the
diagnostic routine tests the I/O subsystem of the MSM.
BlackDiamond 8800 series switch—To run diagnostics on the management portion of the master MSM, specify slot
A or B.
Additional Information for the BlackDiamond 8800 Series Switch Only. Before running diagnostics on a
module, you can also use the
the offline state which takes the switch fabric and ports offline. If you run diagnostics on a module that
is not offline, the switch automatically takes the switch fabric and ports offline when you use the
diagnostics
After the diagnostic routine has finished, use the
back online and operational.
Running Diagnostics—BlackDiamond 12804 Switch Only. If you run the diagnostic routine on a
BlackDiamond 12804 switch, the diagnostic routine occurs on all of the installed I/O modules and the
primary MSM. If a backup MSM is present, the switch does not test the backup MSM.
Running diagnostics affects system operation. During a diagnostic routine, the system can be offline
from 5 to 25 minutes depending on the number of modules installed and the type of diagnostic test
performed.
Once the diagnostic routine is completed, the primary MSM reboots the backup MSM, if installed, and
then reboots itself. The system becomes operational again.
After the switch runs the diagnostic routine, test results are saved in the each module's EEPROM and
messages are logged to the syslog.
Running Diagnostics—Summit X450 Family of Switches Only. If you run the diagnostic routine on the
switch, it reboots and then performs the diagnostic test. During the test, traffic to and from the ports on
the switch is temporarily unavailable. When the diagnostic test is complete, the switch reboots and
becomes operational again.
To run the diagnostic routine on the stack ports, you need a dedicated stacking cable that connects stack
port 1 to stack port 2, which are located at the rear of the switch. The stacking cable is available from
