Troubleshooting
C
Initial set up results in IP
address/Domain ID conflict. The Brocade DCX 8510-4 was connected to
the fabric before being configured. See the Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide for
configuration information.
LEDs on one or more components
are changing rapidly or do not
indicate a healthy state. The Brocade DCX 8510-4 might be booting or
running POST. Verify that boot and POST are complete. The Brocade
DCX 8510-4 requires a minimum of 3 minutes,
usually, after power-on to complete POST.
Beaconing might be on for the entire Brocade
DCX 8510-4 or for individual components. Determine whether beaconing is on by typing the
switchShow command and determine whether
switch beaconing or blade beaconing are on.
Individual components might have failed. See the LED tables in Chapter 4, Monitor System
Components for interpretation and recommended
actions.
Pins on the components might be damaged. Remove the component from the chassis and
inspect the pins on the component and inside the
chassis. Do not reinstall if pins on either component
are damaged, as this could damage pins on other
components. Replace the parts as required.
None of the LEDs on a component
are on. Component might not be seated correctly. Ensure that the Brocade DCX 8510-4 has power and
the component is firmly seated. If the problem
continues, enter the sensorShow command to
determine the component status. If the component
is a CP blade or port blade, enter the slotShow
command to determine the status.
Component might have failed. Replace the component as necessary.
CP blades are failing over frequently. There is excessive serial port activity. Ensure that the serial port activity remains below
specified amount.
CP blade is attached to an Ethernet with high
traffic loads. Ensure that the Ethernet traffic remains below
specified amount
Chassis is overheated. Enter the tempshow and sensorShow commands to
check internal temperature. If components are
overheating, shut down port blades as necessary to
return the temperature to operating range.
Also try moving the blades in the chassis since it is
possible that airflow might not be adequate to cool
everything in certain configurations.
