      If the System Status LED on your Mellanox Technologies Switch is blinking for more than 5 minutes, it indicates that the MLNX-OS software did not boot properly and only firmware is running. Connect to the system via the console port and check the software status. If the MLNX-OS software did not load properly, you might need to contact an FAE.
