Overview of DFE-Gold Module Shutdown Procedure
4-10 Troubleshooting
Recommended Shutdown Procedure Using OFFLINE/RESET
Switch
Before pulling a DFE‐Gold module out of a chassis,
press or tap on its OFFLINE/RESET switch for less than 1 second.
Its CPU LED changes from solid green to blinking between green and amber, indicating
that the module is shutting down. At the end of the shutdown routine, the CPU LED
changes to a 67%/33% sequence of amber/off, respectively, indicating the module is in a
halt state. In this time it is safe to restart or remove the module from the chassis.
When a controlled shutdown is initiated from the OFFLINE/RESET switch, you have 60
seconds from the time the CPU starts alternately flashing amber/off until the device
automatically restarts.
Last Resort Shutdown Procedure Using OFFLINE/RESET Switch
To reset a DFE‐Gold module without it performing an orderly shutdown routine,
press and hold the OFFLINE/RESET switch for approximately 6 seconds.
Pulling any DFE‐Gold module out of the chassis before it has been shut down is not
recommended. The only safe time to pull a module out of the chassis is after the
completion of a shutdown and the management LED is alternately flashing amber/off.
Caution: Do not pull any DFE module out of an operating chassis before it has
completed its shutdown routine.
Precaución: No retire los módulos DFE del chasis en funcionamiento hasta que no se
haya terminado con la rutina de apagado.
Note: The only safe time to pull a DFE-Gold module out of the chassis is when the CPU
LED is alternately flashing amber/off. Otherwise, system operation will be interrupted.
Caution: This method of shutting down a DFE module is not recommended except as a
last resort, because all processes currently running on the module will be interrupted
resulting in loss of frames.
Precaución: No se recomienda utilizar este método para apagar los módulos DFE.
Recurra a él sólo como último recurso, puesto que interrumpe todos los procesos del
módulo en funcionamiento, lo que podría resultar pérdidas de frames.
