EMC Connectrix B Series v6.2 ED-DCX-4S-B Hardware Reference Manual
Diagnostics and Troubleshooting
LEDs on one or more
components are changing
rapidly or do not indicate a
healthy state.
The ED-DCX-4S-B might be booting or
running POST.
Verify that boot and POST are complete. The
ED-DCX-4S-B requires a minimum of 3 minutes,
usually, after power-on to complete POST.
Beaconing might be on for the entire
ED-DCX-4S-B or for individual
components.
Determine whether beaconing is on by typing the
switchShow command and reviewing the output
for the status of switch beaconing and blade
beaconing
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 ED-DCX-4S-B 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.
A third-party application has a memory
leak.
Check application for memory leaks.
There is excessive serial port activity. Ensure that the serial port activity remains below
the specified level.
CP blade is attached to an Ethernet with
high traffic loads.
Ensure that the Ethernet traffic remains below the
specified level
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
the operating range.
